All the staff were friendly and helpful. The hotel's owner, Konstantin Kostov, was particularly impressive. Always there, it seemed, and he also gave an excellent talk about the Roman baths underneath the hotel. Whatever I asked of him, he always went the extra yard. Any criticism? I had to work hard to come up with one: the fridge in my room was not cold enough!

Your Bulgaria Holiday Itinerary

  • Day 1-2: Touchdown at Sofia Airport and waste no time exploring the laid-back capital. Ride the cable car to the top of Vitosha Mountain and soak up the sprawling scenery below. While you’re here, don’t miss St. Alexander Nevsky Cathedral or the Archaeological Museum.

  • Day 3-4: Rent a car and head east to Plovdiv. Bulgaria’s second-largest city is a heady mix of old and new. Wander around the Old Town and explore Plovdiv Roman Theatre. After the sun sets, head out and experience the pulsating nightlife.
