The Best Hotel in Sofia

The Best Hotel in Sofia: Sense Hotel

Bulgaria is an East European a country with great potential for business. This week I visited Sofia, capital of Bulgaria. I chose Sense Hotel accommodation and have not regretted.
Sense Hotel Sofia is a new hotel with a minimalist design (the hotel open its doors for guests in April, 2013).

I was impressed by the level of technology available in the hotel. The elevator automatically selects the floor where you are staying when you touch the sensor with keycard, the Full HD 1080p LED Smart LCD TVs available in the rooms, control panel for full control of the lights in rooms, iPod docking stations…

Service
Service: Beside location, Sense Hotel Sofia amaze me with attentive and professional staff members. The welcome at the reception and introduction of the room was great and friendly.
Good level staff’s knowledge of foreign language. Check-in and check-out are both very fast and staff is polite.When I come back from city trip in the night and I found the weather forecast write down on a piece of paper the bed ready for sleep.
From my experience the staff of Sense Hotel Sofia is one of the best staff in the Bulgaria.

food
Food and drink: Breakfast is Breakfast A La Carte. The staff is very polite and fast. The food quality is very good. The fruits and vegetables are fresh and tasty. I can tell you that the muesli is delicious and omlet was one of the best. The only issue is that Breakfast A La Carte may confuse some people if they are not English native.

I ask hotel representatives why they choose to provide breakfast A La Carte as the businessmen are always on the run and they answer me that “our approach is providing fresh and quality breakfast with genuinely personalized service, this is how we came up to this decision and as you know we have only 71 rooms which is not difficult to handle I mean we are not the regular picture where you get 100 people in the same time; of course we oversee this on daily basis and if needed we do the necessary; You are absolutely correct business man is always in a hurry but the time the guests get the firsts sips we are there with his choice of fresh breakfast items without having him wonder and look around in a buffet“. It is a pretty fair answer.

hotel design
Hotel Design: I really liked the interior design which relaxed me and made ​​me forget the problems. The system of pivoting glittering brass panels creates shimmering configurations and continuously changing ambience in the guest rooms.
The interior design is created mainly with natural materials – stones like marble, travertine, limestone and granite; wooden parquet floors and wall paneling, metal inlays and furniture, leather upholstery of doors and walls, woolen carpets, corian sinks and baths, stainless steel pools in the SPA center.

Final ExpensivePlaces Conclusions
You should visit Rooftop bar unbeatably located on the highest 9th floor, wrapped with 360 ‘ magnificent views of the Sofia City Center. Instead of of conclusions maybe I should say only: design meets technology! We highly recommend Sense Hotel Sofia for your accommodation in Sofia no matter if you come to visit the city or you are in a business trip.

    • Nothing wrong! But from our point of view is easier to choose from a buffet table than from a menu book. that’s all.
