Hotels near Шишмановски манастир „Успение Богородично“, Sofia

Room is a bit old style. TV is small. Shuttle to airport not on time for my reserved time (Waited 30+ min), but not sure if this is common. Breakfast is great (considering the grade of the hotel - a variety of hot options). Great view of city and parking lot in room. Friendly staff.

Very cosy place. The location is at Pliska, 5 minutes by bus from Orlov most (Еagle's Bridge), Sofia. The rooms are very nice and spacious. They have large windows, that let sunlight in. The restaurant is open, there are free parking spaces in the garage. Quick access to the airport.

As soon as we walked through the door, we were greeted by a uniformed man, who welcomed us to the hotel and took us to the reception desk, having looked after our bags, which were later taken to our room. The lady at reception treated us with great courtesy and efficiency, and therefore, from the outset, we realised we were in a well-run five star hotel with professional and helpful staff. Our bedroom was stylishly decorated in cool shades of grey, with two wide beds, a panoramic window with a view of Vitosha mountain, and the marble bathroom was of a good size, with modern fittings and a lovely walk-in shower. We had booked the Club Room and were not disappointed with the newly opened Club Lounge. They offer refreshments during the afternoon and then ‘happy hour’ from 6-8 pm. We found the service really excellent, with staff keen to help, and spent delightful early evenings having drinks and eating an enticing array of canapés. Breakfasts were also excellent in the Europa restaurant with a wide selection of cooked and cold options from the buffet, and dishes cooked to order such as omelettes and eggs benedict. One last point to mention - we found the Chief Concierge - Todor Goranchovski - most helpful in booking us restaurants and directing us to some notable attractions in Sofia: he was great. The Intercontinental is really a top class hotel and we would not hesitate to stay there again - thank you to everyone who made our stay memorable.

The location of this small hotel is superb, right on the main pedestrian boulevard. Easy access to tourist sites and restaurants and cafes. We had two different types of rooms; the first was quite large, but very dim and dark, several light bulbs were out,.Sort of high fashion, but zero function. There was a desk with no lighting on it to work, no place to plug in devices, the shower leaked in a big way all over the floor, not enough ttowels. Would only give us one key ”because they often aren't returned”. Lobby is tiny, utilitarian only. The second room was much smaller; again, the desk had no light above it or on it where one could work. No place to plug in devices, not even a location for one suitcase, let alone two that two people travel with. Didn't eat breakfast as it was too expensive and there are lots of good cafes nearby with excellent espressos and pastries. Would not stay here again.

This hotel was practically next door to the Serdica ancient Roman complex, so as soon as we had checked in, we went out and roamed among the ruins for awhile. But it's actually a perfect location for all your exploration, walking tours, historic sites, etc. The breakfasts were served in the little restaurant on the 1st floor, and it included lots of options. The staff were helpful and friendly, including giving me directions to a laundry, holding our luggage for awhile on our leaving day, and other courtesies. We recommend this hotel, and would stay there again if we ever go to Sofia again.

Typical 4* hotel. Near walk to the center about 15 minutes. Close rooms. You can open windows. Clean. Clean. Every day cleaned. Unreliable breakfasts. Even ice-cream eggs and planted eggs. Fat coffee with milk in powder. On the floor ****** that at night attracts the whistle-blowing types. Very expensive parking is 25 euros a day.

the room was satisfactory at a whole, esp with the little balcony attached for a small laundry zone, electric water kettle for making hot tea, a small refrigerator for use, a big plastic bucket in bathroom and hair dryer provided. The lightings are bright enough. TV also offered a few channels. if a microwave or a small oven could be provided by the hotel for customers reheating their takeaway food or bread, alongside with a mini size folderable tea table, they would definitely earn an extra score by all customers.

The hotel is 10 minutes from the central station by walking. You can walk to nearly all main attractions in the city. They allowed us to check in early. The receptionist and the cleaning lady were nice and helpful. The room we booked was the deluxe one so it was big enough to accomodate the three of us. Only two negative points are the fact that it is very noisy at night and if you walk to the hotel at night (after 11pm) the surroundings seem to be a bit dangerous.

This hotel is in an excellent location: about 10 minute walk from the bus/train station; 5 minutes walk to the metro; 20 minutes walk to the city centre. So from that perspective, it fit my needs perfectly. The staff I encountered were very friendly and helpful, so that was a major plus. The rooms, well, a bit of a mixed bag. While the rooms were VERY spacious, and had a great little balcony, from which I enjoyed a few drinks in the evening, the room really needed to be renovated. The word I described it is “shopworn”. Look at my photos of the room and you can see the broken couch and stained carpet. I would also say that the cleaning staff is a little lacklustre. While not “dirty” per sae, it certainly could be cleaned better. Some minor renovations and better cleaning would have me rating this hotel as a “five”.

We compared several properties before making the reservation here. We wanted close proximity to center, A/C, smoke free, pool. The location is fine. The ****** adjacent to the lobby is awful. It smells horrible. The smokiest place I have ever been in. Room was no smoking but smelled like smoke. There is central AC. However it is controlled by property. We asked. Days were warm and nights were cool so they had the central system set in heating. Room stayed around 25. Not terrible but not what we expected. Pool area is nice. Breakfast is nice with good selection. For the money spent we regret not renting a flat.
