I spent 5 days in the hotel, incl weekend. Hotel was a fit for purpose - quiet central location to walk around and work in the room (internet was playing up though). Breakfasts are quite standard, good selection but nothing extraordinary. Main restaurant dinners though are of a very good quality and service. Staff speaks English and tries to help you with anything you may ask for. Food & drinks are available till 9 pm only, think beforehand if you plan to stay up at night and be hungry or thirsty. Staff at the reception helped me booking weekend tours. Massage service is professional.

I travelled with my daughter and from the moment we arrived, we were covered with care. My daughter received a small present from the staff, we were helped with bags, check in was very fast and efficient. The room was new, very clean with beautiful view and very quiet. Although the room faces the road, we didnt hear any noise from the street. The staff is very helpful, young and cheerful. Breakfast is good. there is everything one needs to keep the energy for the whole day. I am travelling a lot, and I must say, that Novotel Sofia has the most professional and attentive staff I have ever met. Because of them, we felt like at home. This is the place where I would love to be back for sure.

Reviewed By N11alo

We stayed here recently using a booking that was originally from 2020!! The hotel amazingly moved it twice when they could have said sorry tough luck! Wonderful welcome, great staff at reception. Excellent location, plus the pool was great My only gripe - and its a personal dislike - is that the sauna/steam room is extra. I just think when you stay in a hotel, all the amenities should be included in the price. However I would recommend it nonetheless
