Continue to live, there is a local net red restaurant happy downstairs. The taste is salty. The hotel is a bit old. But the transportation is convenient, the waiter is warm, and the breakfast is like that.

Having stayed in many 5 star hotels across the world, I had high hopes for the Sofia Balkan Palace, that unfortunately were only partially met.
First let’s cover the good points! It feels historic without being old, and you feel like you’re really in Sofia. The best thing about the property is easily the location; it’s close to all the main tourist attractions, and there are good transport links right by the hotel, as well as access to some fantastic restaurants, coffee shops, and stores.
The hotel rooms are modern and relatively clean, with the usual amenities. However, I was disappointed that housekeeping kept forgetting to replenish the complimentary daily water, as well as pay attention to the ‘Do Not Disturb’ light that I had selected for my room on a few days during my visit. I would say that one of the downsides is the customer service; although staff aren’t rude, I wouldn’t say they’re polite or overly helpful.
The hotel has average soundproofing, and I was far too aware of the music outside, my neighbouring guests talking or listening to music in their rooms, as well as guests in the hallway (which is in part due to the layout of my room, which did not have an additional door between the bedroom and front door into the room). The noise outside does lessen and stop by about 11:00 PM, and sometimes by 10:00 PM (depending on the day).
Overall, I’d still say it’s a good choice for your stay in Sofia. Especially if your priority is staying in a historical boutique hotel in a good location.

The hotel is located in the core area of the city center, which is very convenient for travel. Parking is convenient downstairs and there is a 24-hour convenience store not far away, which is very convenient for shopping. The room is relatively old, and many Chinese people choose to stay here, but the hygiene is acceptable. There are no free toiletries and drinking water in the room, so you need to bring your own

The hotel was fully self-check-in with auto-locking doors, and no staff were present! Great value for money.
There's a hairdryer available.
However, the Wi-Fi wasn't working well, so I couldn't use it. They said it was under repair, so I recommend checking its status before booking!
I booked a room with a window, but it couldn't be opened, and it was dark even during the day.
The photos were taken at check-out, so it's a bit messy, but it was very clean when I arrived!
This hotel is recommended for those who will be out and about all day, from morning till night!

B&B, facilities are relatively old. It is relatively close to the city, and very close to the surrounding attractions. In fact, the main thing is that Sofia’s attractions are relatively concentrated, so it is more convenient to walk.

Honest version: as a hotel it's a solid 3/5 — basic room, nothing fancy. But it costs about half of anything comparable nearby and the location is probably the best in Sofia, right in the center. For one night that combination is worth an extra star. One thing that annoyed me: you have to leave your key at reception every time you go out. Fine if you're leaving for a full day of walking, less fine when you just want to pop out for a bottle of water. Manage expectations on the room and you'll be happy.

This hotel is quite suitable for business travelers. The staff at the front desk are very kind and friendly; they always help me arrange a taxi whenever I need one, which is really heartwarming. I'll definitely stay here again next time.

The hotel is not far from the city center, and all attractions are within walking distance. The room was spacious and comfortable, and the staff were very helpful with luggage. My flight was delayed, so I arrived very late, but the front desk was extremely welcoming and helpful.
