At hotel In Expo Sofia
29 Sept 2026
ProsThe room is spacious and very clean. I am giving 5 stars to the cleaners. The bathroom, bathtub and the sink were shining. Thank you! ConsThe prices has risen since euro became the main currency. Last year I paid below 100 leva, and now 81 euros which is almost twice e more expensive. Shuttle didn’t come to the Airport on time and had to call. The reception was not aware of the service. It was after midnight and a little scary. Coffee in the room is instant. I went to the lobby to take coffee from the machine. It was not complimentary but quite expensive.

So much potential
15 Jun 2026
Installations are very old and maintenance is a bit lacking. A few points during my stay:- during a power outage, I got stuck in the elevator (there's no emergency generator). When I asked for help via intercom, the person on the other side of the line did not speak English and simply hung up.- on breakfast, juices and water come from a special machine. One day, that machine broke and the only thing they offered was tap water. - house keeping decided, more than once, that having two towels and a rug in the bathroom was too much, so they kept removing them. When I asked the receptionist, she said "but do you need a rug?"- toilet stopped working on the fourth day (repaired on the next one)- the sound isolation between rooms is poor. It was not unusual to hear (very loud) couples having way too much fun during the night.Anyway, it's clear the hotel has potential and the staff is doing their best. But there's definitely a lot of work to be done here.

Not bad
08 Apr 2026
Everything was clean. No noise. Rooms are very comfortable, especially beds, but for me it was too warm in the room (like 26 celsius). Air conditioning was not controllable. Hotel staff is very friendly, but the service in the restaurant leaves a bit to be desired. I think for that price you can find better hotel in Sofia.

Close to business area but poor facilities and service
21 Feb 2026
The hotel was booked as it is close to our office in Capital Fort. This is about the only thing this hotel has going for it. The main issue is there is no restaurant or bar in the hotel.The restaurant only serves breakfast! There are no walkable eateries nearby. You need to get the metro/bus to the local mall or into Sofia centre about 15-20 mins on the metro.I had some issues with my door card. When I returned at the end of the day it would not open the door. So back down to reception from the 7th floor. This happened 3 days in succession. I then asked for the card to be changed as it may have been faulty. The receptionist then said that it was only being authorised for 24 hours.she then authorised it for the rest of the stay..no apology just "that's it fixed" The drinks tray in the room has peppermint tea and coffee. No milk...if you want milk you need to ask reception. When I did that they don't have any! I had 1 black coffee in 3 days. Still hasn't been replenished...Won't be staying here again and will be reporting back to the company to warn other colleagues not to use this hotel.

Highly overrated. Nothing to do with its former reputation!
10 Dec 2024
Highly inflated prices - do not reflect its current quality. Add to that the broken shower hose in the room where they moved us due to the broken toilet cistern in the original room.*????? ???????? ????, ????? ?? ????????? ???????? ?? ????????. ???????? ??? ???? ????????? ?????? ?? ???? ??? ??????? ????, ?????? ?? ??????????, ?????? ????????? ???????? ??????? ? ??????????????.
