HiStory INN Unique Guest House

We used public parking below the fortress as I knew from a past visit that the available parking is limited and challenging to access (I’m not a super confident driver and the streets are quite narrow)

Oh man, this place is REALLY outdated. I understand keeping things original for that old-world charm but this took it too far. The floors were very uneven with boards sticking up. The beds were very creaky with very thin mattresses. The bathroom sink was laughably small and the bathroom was a small square with the shower being in the middle of the bathroom so it gets everything else in the bathroom wet. I would not recommend.

Good location.

Room smelled musty and damp. Even with the window open and thermostat set to 10°C, the unit only blew air — not cold. I got a sore throat from breathing in the stale air all night. Vending machine was expired or broken, no cleaning service, and the door kept jamming. Worst of all, on our final morning, we were woken up at 7 AM by other guests talking and laughing right outside our window. Zero peace or privacy. This is not a 3-star hotel. Avoid it.

Located in old town Veliko Tarnovo in a historic building.
