The hotel is perfectly located in the center of Sofia, just a few minutes walk to Serdica shopping street, offering modern and clean rooms that are comfortable and cozy. The location is excellent for a first visit to Sofia, with shops, bars, restaurants, and tourist attractions within walking distance. The dining experience was decent, with a selection of Bulgarian specialties, although a wider variety of vegetables and cheese could enhance it.

My stay at the hotel was a mix of great experiences and a few drawbacks. The rooms were extremely nice compared to other hotels, but it was a bit warm, leading to some security concerns as we had to keep the window open all night. Despite facing the street, it was surprisingly quiet and cozy. The room stood out for its cleanliness, spaciousness, and the incredibly comfortable bed.
