Hotel Trivia Antique — Hotel in Sofia City

I am world traveller for over 20 years and I am always searching for that experience that stands out from the rest which makes for a memorable experience. Hotel Trivia Antique was defently one of my most unique hotel stays. The hotel itself is a art musuem with funky paintings all over the walls which is a plensure to walk the corridors to admire. Each room is set in different themes, we had the spacious spanish room with a four poster bed, antiques and evenues a Spanish guitar. The bathroom had a large freestanding bath set in Andalusian tiles. The Indian Ragistain room was also a visual delight with all the mirrors. When we booked we choose the room we liked and they facilitate this for us. The building is dripping in history and surround by mature trees. As the name suggests it's full of antiques such as statues and even old limousinesoms on the grounds. There is as tranquil seating area outside and we had as peaceful nights sleep. The local village with shops & restaurant is 10 minutes walk. We arrived late and even though the lady who runs the place does not speak English we received the warmest welcome in our two weeks of being in Bulgaria. She called for people to come to the resturant to prepare us food, Now that to me is hospitality! The entrance to the resturant is full of Cuban memorabilia which I loved. She got at 4 am to give us our airport wake up call. We choose to stay here as it was close to the city center and the airport but without the noise and the traffic, had such a...

We arrived at this really unique hotel in the middle of Febuary, and were probably the only guests. The few staff were as helpful as they could be, considering their knowledge of English was possibly even less than our knowledge of Bulgarian (our communications had been via email, & must have been dealt with by an English speaking person). They opened the restaurant for us in the evening, & although the choice was limited it was probably one of the best meals we had in Bulgaria! ||The decor of the hotel was what had attracted us to the place. Each room was quite different, and ours had a splendid bath as well as the "wet room" option. The dining room was amazing. If you see the photos on Booking.com, the photo that looks like a four poster bed with steps going up to it (!) is, in fact, a table in the restaurant. ||We only stayed one night, as we were just stopping off in Sofia on our way back from Bourgas. The hotel is a fair way outside Sofia, but there was a bus stop right outside, and it's on the same side of the city as the airport. The staff arranged to collect us from the airport, and take us back there the following morning. If we went there again, I think we might try a busier time of year, & go with our relatives who are fairly fluent...
