Very good
All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travellers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
Great location. Had a huge room, was very nicely done, nice breakfast. Parking is 10 euro.
Only complaint is pool is not part of hotel and if you want to use it is very expensive. So why have photos and promote having a pool? And why email me aaying i have access to pool, I dont!

Thks you for the receptionist helping with parkin
Hotel in nice location and the personnel helpful.But the rooms like 80ish
The hotel is rather plush and comfortable. There are lots of sculptures scattered about the public areas which is nice.
Breakfast was basic but adequate. Parking in the hotel car park is charged at 10 lev per day.
Our shower door leaked. There was pornography on the TV the moment I turned it on and disturbingly even when I changed channels the pornography came back when I left the tv unattended.
The sauna and swimming pool are charged extra and expensive and a swimming cap is mandatory.
My own criticism is that they could have replenished the teabags & provided a spoon to stir in sugar & there was one light I just couldn’t switch off so had to take room card out every night. Other that it was perfect. Thanks.

Art lovers hotel
The distinctiveness of Angel is the art work displayed throughout the hotel. In my brief stay I had the chance to enjoy some of the paintings and sculptures. There a casino onsite where smoking is clearly permitted. The breakfast is ample both in choice and quantity. Good location.

The location is good, the facilities and room were ok, and the staff was very unfriendly in most occasions.
Central location. A large spacious and clean room with a large balcony.
Kind and professional staff.

Worth the money but that's it
Definitely not clean enough, the floor in the bathroom was dirty, the sheets has strange smell, the keyboard was broken and etc.
It doesn't felt like 5* hotel, although the room itself was very big and has a king size bed. The location is also good, 10-15 minutes from Vitosha street. The staff was nice and very friendly.
Generally disappointing. All communal areas of hotel stink of smoke, as soon as you enter the lobby this hits you and is really quite unpleasant. Some staff on reception very helpful other staff such as in restaurant really not! Bar closed when we wanted a drink one night (didn’t try again so not sure if always the case) so advised to go to restaurant and staff sat on phones and refused to serve a beer.
Beds a bit hard but otherwise rooms ok although only a couple of plugs in entire room.
5 star restaurant but no open bar and stinks of smoke, will go elsewhere next time
The hotel location is on the center of the city, very nice hotel our room was a large one. The room was clean and the bed sheets have changed every day. The breakfast was good and the Hotel staffs were friendly
Suite familiale très spacieuse et confortable...
Parking sur place très appréciable (payant 10€ les 24h) car proche de tous les monuments à pied à voir sur Sofia !
Pdj copieux et digne d'un 5 étoiles...
Piscine intérieure grande et profonde idéal si vous souhaitez nager.
Very good hotel, 5star, but no really. The staff are very nice, try to use the swimming pool, but looks like dirty. The room to the boulevard are are very noisly all 24hours.
