Great location, easy walking to the boulevard, bar and as a little quiet but we didn’t mind, they did play some questionable tavern music, but did change on request, the bistro was closed all weekend but we didn’t need it, room was great, with tea coffee at complementary water. We would recommend and visit again.

Art Hotel is very clean and comfortable. The staff is extremely attentive, helpful, and friendly. There is a parking lot nearby, but it would be better if they partnered with a specific parking facility to offer reasonable parking rates. There were no hotel slippers in my room— a small but important detail. As a result, it is a hotel where I would definitely want to stay again on my future visits to Sofia. I highly recommend it to everyone.

Lovely hotel and very friendly and helpful staff. The music, and live music in the bar was very interesting (I really enjoyed it as I am from Ireland). Only very minor downside was that it was a little noisy. Music from the bar and noise from other guests was evident when I retired for the night.

A special place with real heart I stayed at the wonderful Hotel 158 from May 7th to 10th and absolutely loved it. It’s centrally located, with a creative, artistic vibe—there was even an exhibition happening while I was there, which made the place feel alive and unique. The staff were incredibly kind—Tomas was calm and helpful, and nothing was too much trouble for him including all the taxis I ordered. Maria, whom I only met once, left a handwritten note and a book for me on my last day as an early birthday gift. It was such a thoughtful gesture and really touched me. This hotel has real soul with it being decorated with paintings from local artists. I left feeling truly seen and cared for. I would recommend this hotel to anyone. Mark N

Fairly small hotel and yet the stay comes with breakfast which was decent. 24/7 open reception is a plus (as I arrived super lat at 1:00am due to disastrous flight connection in a nearby country.) I was worried about by late arrival so I sent the hotel several messages to alert them and they were quick to respond to me. The young man at the reception welcomed me upon arrival. Very cute art decorations throughout the facility and the room I stayed it. When I woke up on the same morning, I had a little time to explore the area but there wasn’t much to see unlike the other hotel I stayed at at the end of the trip. Overall however, it is a nice hotel which I will consider utilizing it when/if I am in the city again in the future. Oh, they have an elevator!

The Hotel is in the town center, close to the main square. There is shopping around the hotel, but it is very quiet because it is on a side street. We did not get the upgrades promised by Expedia. We were pledged to breakfast and a bottle of wine, but we had to pay extra for everything. Regardless of that, the hotel is a great choice for a budget.

The bed was very comfortable. The staff were excellent, helpful and friendly. The hotel was in a good location, 5 minute from the underground and no more than 20 minute to walk to all major tourist attractions. I would definitely stay again if I went back to Sofia.

I typically look at the convenience of the hotel location as the first criterion when choosing a place to stay while travelling. It is very close to Serdika Metro station with one of the subway lines comes from the airport - so no need to take a cab. Close to Alexander Nevsky Cathedral (the couple trips I booked had a gathering spot in this area) and a few other attractions. My hotel room was clean. The breakfast sufficient.
