Reviews of Rila Hotel Sofia

missingWrote a review on 10 Decvintage charmconvenient accesslively atmospheredated furnishingsmaintenance issues
I stayed for 5 nights, primarily to explore the nearby attractions like the National Palace of Culture and the Ivan Vazov National Theater. The room I had, while unrenovated, was interesting as it reflected a certain vintage charm, though parts of it definitely needed more attention. I appreciated the convenient access to places like the Central Sofia Market Hall, which was just a short walk away. Overall, the atmosphere around the hotel was lively due to its close proximity to local sights.

The room I had was a stark throwback to the 1970s, complete with outdated furniture and signs of poor maintenance, including peeling wallpaper and a musty smell. The air conditioning didn’t work, and carpets were stained, not to mention the weak Wi-Fi signal that made it difficult to stay connected. Additionally, I encountered disruptive noise from a high school field trip staying on the same floor, making sleep a challenge.

The location was absolutely ideal, right in the city center, with easy access to shops, restaurants, and breathtaking views of Vitosha Mountain. My renovated room was comfortable and spotlessly clean. The staff were friendly and helpful throughout my stay.
Some noise from the pub downstairs.

Rila Hotel's location is fantastic, just a stone's throw from Vitosha Blvd and major attractions like the National Palace of Culture. The spacious room offered a great view of Vitosha Mountain, and the air conditioning worked exceptionally well. I enjoyed unwinding on the balcony with my coffee, while friendly staff members assisted with good travel tips.

Centrally located, the hotel offers easy access to various attractions and restaurants, enhancing the travel experience. The renovated room was modern and chic, featuring high-quality amenities and a spectacular view of the Bulgarian mountains. However, the bar below caused noticeable noise disruption, and while the breakfast was tasty, it lacked variety. The lobby's vending machine provided quick snacks, though the lack of a mini fridge in my room was disappointing.
