  • KatjaRussia · 27 Sept 2025 9Exceptional

    Liked : New hotel, nice rooms and great views, nice owner. Very close to the beach, and a short walk to the center of the amazing Sozopol.

    Disliked : Maybe not enough sockets near the bed, but enough on the table

    Good hotel in a great location!

    Liked : Good hotel in a great location. Most comfortable bed we slept in all our time in Bulgaria! Room good size and good shower. Close to the beach,restaurants and old town. Very quiet too!

    Disliked : It was all good

  • TedivladIreland · 31 Aug 2025 9Exceptional

    Amazing location and super friendly staff

    Liked : The location is just perfect, so close to the old town and the beach! The staff is amazing too, from the manager Natasha to the cleaning lady..nothing was too much trouble. The value was great too. We were lucky enough to get a parking spot too. I would recommend it and if ever we are back to Sozopol I would stay there again.

    Disliked : A little outdated and there was not much privacy on the balcony as it is a shared one...although we were lucky as we got room 210 and we had a direct access to the balcony..Not every room has a balcony door. But the price and location compensate for it.

    Cozy, convenient accommodation in Old town of Sozopol

    Liked : The hotel is located in close distance to Central Sozopol beach and Old town of Sozopol.
    Our hotel room was clean and cozy. I really like the aromatic smell of the hand soap in the bathroom. The accommodation conditions met my expectations. I am also pleased with good customer service of the Manager who is also receptionist and housekeeper lady. They are very friendly, hospitable and helpful.

    Disliked : No critical feedback on the service provided

    Liked : It was close to the Old Town. Room was comfortable and clean. Staff were friendly and made an effort.

    Disliked : Parking nearby was impossible. We had to park at the port. I was expecting more of a sea view. The hotel doesn't have much character.
