Excellent hotel for location, space, and functionality. May appear dated to some, however was clean, well maintained, and otherwise comfortable spacious room. Short walk to area amenities, transit, and attractions. Staff were attentive/courteous to inquiry. Would stay again for central location/access to transit and Vitosha Street.

1-It’s a great hotel. I would rate it as excellent 4 stars. As it’s not 5 starts by all accounts. 2- The location is excellent in the heart of the city and in walking distance to all attractions. 3-It’s very clean and smells really nice everywhere(rooms and communal spaces) 4- The breakfast is so basic and it’s not worth the 22€. 5- With regards to the staff( 2 male receptionist are so unhelpful and one of them is so grumpy and he wouldn’t even smile at the guest upon arrival) there was a noise nuisance (celebration of students graduation) they were beating loud drums at the door of the hotel and many guests complained about it as we couldn’t sleep for 2 days out of the 3 days stayed. The response from the receptionist was so poor and defensive, that they can’t do anything about it. I would say it’s an isolated incident as the rest of the staff are friendly.

Grand Hotel Sofia is centrally located within walking distance of many interesting attractions such as historic churches, museums, and theaters, as well as the excavated ruins of Roman Serdica, the ancient settlement below the streets of Sophia. The hotel is situated overlooking a beautiful park and the area is very clean & safe, containing many of the Bulgarian ministry buildings nearby. The rooms were big and comfortable, the restaurant, including the breakfast was top notch. The hotel has a cool 80’s retro feel about it, for example the nice wood paneling throughout the halls and fully-tiled green marble bathrooms. I’m unable to compare to other hotels in Sofia but I would 100% recommend it to anyone looking for accommodations in Sofia. The price to value ratio was reasonable, in my opinion.

Everything was great with the exception of the fitness room. Overall, everything was excellent, but the fitness room needs an upgrade, especially the treadmill. The belts were very loose other than that, Grand Hotel Sofia is absolutely Stunning.
