The quality of this hotel is going worse than it used to be.

Customer review rating 3.9/5

George T. Families - 03/03/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

I stayed many times in this hotel before. The quality of breakfast, coffee etc. is going worse. The staff on reception is superb. It looks like the hotel’s amortization is huge and it needs some refresh. The quality of the coffee at breakfast is so low that I am surprised why they have bought such rubish product.

Dear Guest, Thank you for sharing your feedback to us. We are very sorry to hear that the breakfast did not meet your expectations. We try to serve huge variety of food so all guest can choose what they like the most. Please be sure that we will learn from your concerns as we aim to improve our services in order to make all our guests happy. We hope you will give us the opportunity to better serve you in near future. . Best Regards, Stanislav Bandrov General Manager

Stuart Couples - 02/03/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

For a one night layover at Sofia airport, this was ideal. A text with the number to call for a shuttle before we arrived, the bar available for a late beer before bed and a shuttle on demand to go for our flight. The bed was comfortable and the sleep excellent. Friendly and efficient staff. Just what we needed

AC didn't work so I was freezing all night long. However breakfast was amazing, I loved it. I would definitely recommend this hotel to family and friends, but please consider fixing ACs during winter time, since Bulgaria is cold. With that said, I would like to mention that Internet connection was poor.

There is much to improve, especially regarding the professionalism of the staff and cleaning.

Customer review rating 3.9/5

Monika Solo - 02/12/2019 Confirmed reviews ALL

The room did not left the impression of well cleaned and I found 2 long black hairs: one on the bed and on the bath towel. The joint between the tiles under the shower were yellow and disgusting. The lift had spots and fingers everywhere. Although I wanted to have a rest and sleep until 11am (as I arrived at 2am after a long flight), the cleaning ladies started shouting early in the morning, around 8am from one side of the floor to the other giving orders to each other... No discretion and no client orientation. Very unprofessional! The receptionists made the impression of nervous and not really professional staff, as they were too busy to tell each other what to do instead of knowing what has to be done...Breakfast was poor and I had to listen to the kitchen staff talking about their personal issues the whole time... I had the feeling that all the staff behaved like they are at home and not at work, forgetting that they are dealing with international clients who has payed EU prices to stay there... In general this hotel left the impression of unprofessional staff who need to be coached. I love IBIS hotels and everywhere I have been they are very professional, except of this one.

TripAdvisor rating 3.5/5

W4Peter Solo travel - 30/11/2019 TripAdvisor review

This hotel is let down a bit by its location - you have to rely on the shuttle (I don't think I'd try walking). The drivers are excellent, but you are reliant on them to get back and forth. The taxi drivers at the airport don't want to take you such a short distance because they lose their spot in the queue. Expect to pay 10 BGN. My room was fine, nothing fancy but it was comfortable, clean and quiet. It also had a nice view in the distance. The reception staff were lovely and the main reason this gets a 4 and not a 3. You will need to call the hotel from the airport/Metro to request the shuttle, and be quite clear where you are waiting because the shuttle driver has to keep moving. It's frustrating if the phone is engaged and you see the shuttle drive past. I think that the best improvement would be to have the shuttle run at specific times during the day so that you could plan around it. I did not have time to eat there but the bar staff are friendly and very good.

Customer review rating 3.9/5

L. Couples - 11/11/2019 Confirmed reviews ALL

We appreciated the quality of service, especially the free shuttle : we called and the driver met us 5min later right where we were. On the other way, we missed the shuttle (it was full and left earlier than planned) but the receptionist called a taxi for us : thanks a lot ! The room is nice and comfortable. But I would not recommand the restaurant : we waited 1 hour between the order and the dishes, and the prices are too high for Bulgaria.
