No room available

No room available and they transferred me to another hotel. Only I came for breakfast and it was good. Parking is 10 Eur daily in their sister hotel or you can park to the road with paying 0,5 Eur per hour between 08:30h-19:30h. Out of these hours and Sundays are free.

Terrible experience, I was beaten by bedbugs. I have photos and videos because I woke up 3am from a weird pinching to find out I was beaten. I spend 2 hours killing insects and cleaning the bed. Worst experience ever. I asked for a refund they asked me to speak with hotels.,com

Life in Bulgaria is very difficult and to run business in Bulgaria is very difficult. Hotel is in excellent location near to bus train station have near underground or Metro which is cheap and excellent connection to everywhere and to the airport. Breakfast was excellent. Only one think I would like to suggest is to have towels in the room not to ask for them . For me as a Bulgarian who leave not in Bulgaria and travel around the world I can say hotel is tree star hotel and definitely I can rate three star hotel. Would I stay again YES. My review was only my honest opinion and I hope to help another people also to make their decisions.

Hard to find

We didn't end up staying there, because there was a problem with the room. So they sent us to the hotel around the corner (where we were in fact very comfortable). The hotel was very difficult to find. There is a big red sign on the corner; you follow that to similar big red sign on a parking lot gate, that says "Aris Hotel and Restaurant Reception". Haul the suitcases up 4 steps and down 3 to get to the entrance, then up 2 and down 3 to get to reception. . . whereupon they tell us that actually the hotel is back on the other side of the road! I must say, though, that the (real) receptionist was extremely helpful in getting us settled into another hotel. We had breakfast at Aris, and it was good.

Fawlty Towers in Sofia-but where was John Cleese?

We was living 5 days at hotel Aris in Sofia. To make it short it was the most terrible hotel I ever stayed in. The rooms was not clean. Dust and what was worse at the rooms. The never cleaned the rooms during the stay. The breakfast was at best moderate going against bad. But the worst thing about the hotel was the staff. I never experienced any thing like it. Service is definitely not a city in Bulgaria. At some time I was wondering if we were in a reality show like “the worst hotel in Sofia”. The receptionist in different looking constant at her phone or smoking, cleaner more focused on getting off, smoking and taking Tod here two small children that were with her on the job. The waitress in the weekend having loud conversations on her phone in the restaurant and when not seeing reels on her phone. So all in all a sad experience at the hotel that really doesn’t want you to come back. And yes I know the price is low but still you should expect a clean room and again cleaning during a 5 day stay and a staff that doesn’t ignore you.

Als ich eincheckte, war das Zimmer nicht gereinigt und nach dem Einchecken war in jeder Ecke des Zimmers immer noch viel Staub und viele Spinnen und Spinnweben. Dann wurde viele Bedburgs entdeckt und meine Frau wurde an mehreren Stellen gebissen. Ich will nie wieder es besuchen, ist der Preis auch nicht gerade günstig. Das Bild und der Zustand des Zimmers waren völlig anders. Beim Frühstück tauchte zwischen den Tomaten ein langes weißes Haar auf. Es war ungefähr 40 cm. Also habe ich nicht gefrühstückt. Dies ist ein Bereich, der einer großen Korrektur bedarf. Sehr schmutzig.

Palvelutaso heikkoa

Respa ei aina ollut paikalla vaikka pitäisi olla 24h. Kysymyksiin ei aina osattu vastata. Ei tietoa ratikkalinjoista, vaikka ne löytyvät netistä. Ei haluttu tarkistaa ja neuvoa minua. Palvelualttius heikkoa. Yhtenä aamuna pyysin nescafe pusseja huoneeseeni. Luvattiin, mutta ei toimitettu. Aamiaisen ruokien sisältöä ei tiedetty, kun kysyin. Kyse oli makeasta levonnaisesta. Huoneen roskiksia ei tyhjennetty koko aikana.

値段相応の内容です。ソフィアを起点にした日帰りツアーに連日参加するため五連泊しましたが、タオルはバスタオルのみ(フェイスタオルと足拭きはなし)、交換も滞在中一度きりでした。 朝食とシャワーと睡眠と荷物預けと割り切っているので個人的には充足です。あと、ブルガリア料理店が近いことは便利です。 ただレセプションに人がいないことが多かったのは良くないと思いました。 ソフィアの他のホテルを知りませんが、他の都市と同様のサービスを求めるならば、他を選んだ方が無難です。

Hyvä hinta-laatusuhde

Hyvä sijainti. Hotelli rauhallisella sivukadulla mutta lähellä julkisen liikenteen pysäkit ja metro. Tilava huone mutta vanhanaikainen sisustus ja kulunut huone. Parveke plussaa. Aamiainen hyvä ja monipuolinen. Siivous huono, ilmeisesti pelkkä petaus. Wc-tiloja ei siivottu eikä vessapaperia tullut lisää. Roskakoreja ei tyhjennetty eikä tuhkakuppia parvekkeelta.
