This hotel should be avoided at all costs. A room advertised as a deluxe double room is a cramped hot cubical barely larger than the bed with insufficient room to fit a chair between the bed and the desk, rendering the desk unusable. The shower in the tiny bathroom has flimsy plastic accordion doors which do not close and allow... more

Stayed for one night in a standard room. Although basic was comfortable. A little noisy in the morning with people opening / closing doors and what sounded like a school playground behind. Staff were friendly and helpful. I asked directions to an internet cafe and they offered me use of their computer - they refused payment for service. Its only... more

i booked hotel central through sofiahotels.com (beware! you arrange excursions and they forget to pick you up, you pay for late check-out and hotel just doesn't care!...). we had an extremely small standard twin, with micro-bathroom attached (beware! the shower, although with curtain has no 'box' therefore you inundate the floor anyway) and with very bland A/C. luckily we were... more

This was my first trip behind the old Iron Curtain, so I had no idea what to expect. In the event, with one minor exception, the Hotel Central turned out to be a real find. Location-wise, the name says it all. You're two minutes' walk from Sveta Nedelya church, and about 20 or so from the train and bus station.... more

We booked this hotel as a base for a citybreak on the strength of it having four stars and spa/sauna etc facilities. On our arrival we found it was actually only a THREE star hotel. We were directed to a twin room that had been cunningly installed in a broom cupboard, we had booked a double and upon discussion with... more

Travelling frequently to the BALKANS I have stayed in many 4 start hotels in many countries and believe me, this hotel is excellent standard and value. I always expect the worst when travelling so when I booked this for 35 euros I was only hoping that the rats were small...what a surprise! Very clean, great standard (this is the Balkans)... more

Stayed at this hotel on route to Athens for the Champions League Final. Please be aware of the taxi drivers at the airport, it costs between 7-10 Leva to get to the city centre. My driver charged me a lot more. However the hotel sorted a reputable taxi for the return which cost 8 Leva. The female members of staff... more
