The Hotel Romantic is well located in Sofia, in the small district of Dragalevtzi at the foot of the Vitosha Mountain. The city of Sofia is also within waking distance of the hotel if you're energetic (7Km). Down the road is a local town square, where there is a bus stop, taxi rank, local shops and restaurants. ||||We stayed at the Romantic for 2 weeks and enjoyed local walks and visits to the city.||A good continental breakfast is included as well as free WiFi connection.||||The hotel is run by Ellie, her husband and son who give a warm welcome and great service. The bed was great; important after a day walking on the mountain soaking in the amazing views. The sheets and towels were changed daily and the room was nice and clean.||||The hotel offers it's own restaurant in the evening, and lunchtimes on request. The food is really well cooked and is great value. We also used a laundry service through the hotel. ||||When my wife was unlucky enough to take a fall when crossing a stream, on the mountain Ellie was very keen to give all the help she could and advised on how to best get good medical help.||||We will certainly...
Read moresmall family hotel on the foot of vitosha mountain. great and friendly staff always willing to help. this made our stay relaxing. rooms are basic and clean. powerfull shower, hot water, airco and good heating. daily cleaning of the room. fridge and tv in the room. laundry service possible. nice simple breakfast to give you a good start of the day. free coffee and tea. need to checkout before 6 am to get our flight. even then breakfast was ready. its possible to buy some sweets and cold drinks at the frontdesk. great walking possibilities nearby for a hike in the mountains. some shop and nice restaurant within 1 km. beds are hard. i sleep on hard beds but here i need a few days before i was used to this. the locaton is a bit out of the city. quiet and although its possible to reach the city by bus and metro we always get there by taxi. it will cost 10 to 15 euro's single way. its not that i didnt like that but you have to keep...
Read moreDopo una bella e lunga camminata sul monte Vitosha, io e il mio ragazzo siamo capitati per caso a pranzo in questo delizioso albergo con ristorante. I tavoli esterni erano molto carini ma noi abbiamo mangiato all'interno. Il locale è curato e molto pulito e il ragazzo che ci ha servito è stato molto carino, professionale e attento. Ci ha consigliati benissimo sia per il cibo che per il bere. Ottimo il vino rosso! Abbiamo mangiato talmente bene che siano tornati anche la sera stessa a cena date le ottime materie prime. Segnalo un'eccezionale agnello al forno (il migliore che io abbia mai mangiato in vita mia!), una splendida lingua di vitello che si scioglieva in bocca, una saporita e semplice zuppa con verdure e pollo e i cuoricini di anatra alla griglia. Magnifica anche la crème caramel che il ragazzo ci ha gentilmente offerto! Ovviamente i prezzi, per noi italiani abituati a farci rapinare spesso e volentieri in patria, sono ottimi nonostante la bottiglia di vino bulgaro costasse 20 euro (vino che, ribadisco, era davvero ottimo!). Ho provato vari ristoranti consigliati a Sofia da Trip Advidor e posizionati nei primi posti in classifica, ma in nessuno di questi ho mangiato così bene come al Romantic Hotel! Non è vicino al centro, ma scendendo alla fermata della metro Vitosha e poi prendendo un taxi per pochi minuti (e pochi lev) riuscirete comunque ad arrivare comodamente. Lo consiglio vivamente a tutti gli italiani, e non solo, che vogliano mangiare e bere davvero bene! Inoltre sono rimasta allibita delle appena due recensioni presenti su Trip Advisor... questo posto merita di essere provato e pubblicizzato... se lo...
