The Hotel Niky was very beautiful, I could not believe I had YouTube on my TV even in English. Had a walk-in shower, the most comfortable bed. Close to St. Alexander Nevski Cathedral., 2,000-year-old ruins, only a few blocks from the famous Vitosha Blvd., many other Eastern Orthodox Church's. and I was able to see 7 Museums. all walking distance. Staff were very helpful and professional, and I loved the Greek Restaurant attached to the Hotel, the Greek salad was delicious.

Front desk was very helpful on directions to local sites & calling taxis. Room was good for a couple of nights. A continental breakfast is included & there was more choices than I would have expected. There is also an onsite res't for dinner, which we had one night. The service was very good & so was the food & the proportions were large. A 10-20 minute walk to attractions.

Great location on quiet street but still close to all the action in Sofia. Generous and tasty breakfast buffet. Nice back terrace. Would definitely stay there again in a future visit to Sofia. Only negative was that the air conditioning could have been quieter and more effective.

Really cute small hotel. If you extect the luxury and extras of the 4 and 5 star hotels, you won't find them here (and you are NOT being charged for these!:), but you will have all of the basics that will make your stay comfortable. Room was clean and cozy, staff was super friendly and helpful, wifi worked great, and mind, I was using VPN for work. Having the option to eat breakfast right at the hotel was also very convenient. The staff went out of their way to make sure i had what i needed. The location was the best- right downtown, but tucked in one of the quiet small streets- so you are near everything (restaurants, shopping, theaters, concert hall, etc), yet you can enjoy peace and quiet when it is time to sleep.The hotel is near the NDK/National Palace of Culture metro stop, so fast, cheap and easy to get to from the airport, bus station and the train station. I highly recommend.

Hotellet har haft sina glansdagar för 20 år sedan men börjar bli nedgånget. Vårt rum luktade avlopp, hade mögel i taket i badrummet. Dörrposten till toaletten var vattenskadat och heltäckningsmattan fläckig. Frukosten höll inte högsta kvalitet. Sängarna var bra och personalen trevlig. Nära till stora shoppinggatan vilket är ett plus.

Hotel is well placed close to the Vitosha Boulevard in the city centre. Room was large and comfortable and had a large bath as well as the shower. Breakfast was perfectly adequate with a lot of choice. The immediate area is a bit scruffy but this applies to all the central side streets and is not unusual. Area is very quiet and safe. I found the hotel's central location was very convenient. It is also close to the NDK metro station.

Room was sparse, but huge! Beds were comfortable for me, a little hard for my companion. Great shower and breakfast, plus front desk staff were all very courteous. Location was very good for shopping/dining streets, but a bit of a walk to attractions and public transport. Only negative thing I can say is a shelf is needed in the shower. I would definitely stay again!

The hotel itself has an excellent location quite close to all main attractions in Sofia along with vitosha blvd being so close where all best restaurants and bars are located. The staff were super friendly and helpful along with rooms being nice and spacious. major complaints were that the air conditioning was not at all working well as expected given how hot it was when we visited. The other major complaint is the shower drain is awfully designed in the toilets for water to leak everywhere in the restroom post a shower and doesn’t dry easily which caused quite a mess 😥
