I can't recommend this hotel more highly. It was the first stop in Bulgaria for our family of four and it truly felt as if we moved into an apartment. We even did laundry (which was in the room) a couple of times, just because we could and so that when we left Sofia all of clothes would be clean. Parking is on-site and they even discounted it for me. The breakfast is amazing (and included) and every single one of the staff members was pleasant and helpful. We had a nice balcony with a great view, multiple TVs, and room was immense. Everything in the hotel was spotless and luxurious.
