Rila Hotel Sofia

Excellent location in the heart of the city. Big rooms. Good view. The GREAT FEALING of OLD SOCIALST HOTELS that were made for People and not for robots!!! (that includes a big loby on each floor in front of the 2 elevators, wooden walls in public areas etc. I can recognize those things from far!!!) We chosed NOT RENOVATED ROOMS and still were OK. Breakfast was very good and the lady very polite and helpfull.

Second time in this hotel, but last time, I was in the non renovated part. This time, I was in the brand new part (fully renovated) and it was perfect! The location is just the best one, nearby to any top place in Sofia, restaurants, pedestrian street Vitoshka, bars, clubs... The View from 6th floor is just amazing, one of the best View in Sofia (Mountain View). Also the Staff is amazing, even for early check-in! If the room is available, they let you in! Really appreciated!

The hotel is in a great location: within the city center, great restos and shops around, and the monuments are walking distance from the hotel. The room: I booked one of the renovated rooms, and i must say, I love it. It is modern, chic, and well decorated. Highlight was I had a great view of the National Assembly (+other monuments) and the Bulgarian mountains. It is cleaned daily and they do a good job. The room is complete with everything you need, and they are of high quality. There were thunderstorms during one day when I visited the city, good thing the TV was equipped with the Netflix app, so staycation all day ☺️ Lastly, the staff are friendly and accommodating. Always smiling and ready to help 💕

The hotel have been completely renewed, the rooms look modern and are well furnished. I have been already to Rila Hotel 2 years ago and the improvement is incredible. The structure is located in a very central and you can reach all the main attractions by simply walking. Moreover, you can also find nearby the Serdika Metro station and several bus and tram stops. Hence, the area is well serviced. The personnel was professional and kind. They speak English.

The location is unbeatable. We were in a renovated penthouse apartment. It looks really nice. Great view on Sofia and Vitosha. The beds are very comfortable. The apartment is spacious for a family of 4. The two sleeping rooms offer enough privacy.
