The hotel offers spacious and comfortable rooms with a huge rooftop terrace, great breakfast choices, and good Wi-Fi. The service is mostly professional and helpful, with a few instances of rudeness noted. The location is convenient for walking to central attractions but may be a bit uninspiring. The dining experience has room for improvement in variety and quality. Overall, the facilities are well-maintained and the value for money is decent.

My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The room was spacious and had nice amenities like bath robes, slippers, a coffee machine, and a huge bed, but its location close to the elevator and staff room was a downside. The actual room looked a bit different from the photos.

The hotel offers very nice rooms with fancy decor and great artwork, a very good breakfast but might get too bright and warm in the morning. The service is overall fantastic, though they seem a bit overworked. The location is not the most exciting, with average dining options nearby. Dining experience is tasty with a good variety but could use more changes. The facilities are excellent with attention to detail.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The suite upgrade at no extra cost was a nice surprise, but the dusty room and early morning noise from the reception desk were a letdown. The service was unprofessional, with indifference towards maintenance issues. The central location was convenient, with easy access to transportation and local attractions. Despite the lackluster service, the dining options with fresh fruit were a highlight. The hotel facilities were adequate, but there is room for improvement in cleanliness and service quality.

The hotel's location is good but requires a 10-minute walk to the center. It offers easy access to Sofia Tower Mall and the city center, but the street it's on might not be the most inspiring. Parking can be difficult due to the busy area.

The dining options were average at best, not up to par for a 5-star hotel. The continental breakfast was fine, albeit limited. Only having two sections of hot dishes felt underwhelming for such a property.
