Hotel Varusha

Hotel Varusha

10/10 Excellent
"We stayed 4 nights and highly recommend Hotel Varusha. Everyone we met from checking in to our departure was friendly and helpful, even using a translation device to chat about the fascinating history of Veliko Tarnovo. The location is in the Old Town and in a good location for sightseeing, cafés and restaurants. Our room had a lovely view over the atmospheric orange -tiled rooftops to green hills beyond. The room was spotlessly clean, as was the bathroom. We didn't use the kitchenette facilities downstairs, but saw they were well stocked with cups, glasses etc. We hope to return one day, as we really enjoyed our stay."
