Hotel Lion Sofia

Shocking scene in this hotel. The manager, who appears in the photos, is extremely aggressive and deeply disrespectful. We simply asked to sleep in clean sheets without pubic hair or other dirt, and he keeps accusing us of lying, even though we have photos as proof. I have never seen anything like this before. He is now threatening to throw us out of the hotel because we are understandably getting upset. This is an absolute disgrace. Even the cleaning staff are afraid of this man. He clearly doesn’t care about anyone, and he even lets his dog enter the guest rooms. We have just arrived in Sofia and were welcomed in the worst possible way by this man, while the cleaning staff and the front desk employee are actually very professional. I will be reporting this incident to the authorities, as this behavior is completely unacceptable for a 3-star hotel. In order not to cause problems in the hotel, and because we were not at home, we accepted a cash refund. However, this person deserves to be disciplined, as there are many negative comments about them, and Booking was not surprised by this at all during my phone call.

地下鉄駅のすぐ隣で、コンビニやスーパーもすぐ横でとても便利です。街の中心までも徒歩で行けます。朝食は朝８時〜と遅めですが、ホテル隣接の雰囲気のいいカフェで食べられます。早く出る時はサンドイッチとフルーツや水などパッケージにしてもらいました。エアコンも冷蔵庫もあって快適でした。

Идеальное расположение отеля, рядом с метро и автобусными остановками Кому-то мешал шум с улицы, но не так сильно Просторный номер, шикарная ванная комната, полотенца меняли каждый день Сначала не работал телевизор, но на другой день сделали! Про завтраки писал, что не в отеле, а соседнем кафе, предлагают только одно блюдо и напиток, очень скудно Персонал весь дружелюбный, кроме одного пожилого господина, который не владеет информацией о передвижении по городу, это не его работа совершенно точно и он испортил моё настроение в день отъезда и только по этой причине я ставлю четвёрку и если бы не он, то смело поставил бы пятёрку

La struttura avrebbe anche del potenziale, ma purtroppo l’esperienza non è stata all’altezza delle aspettative. Le camere non danno una grande sensazione di pulizia e la presenza della moquette sicuramente non aiuta. La criticità più grande riguarda l’insonorizzazione praticamente inesistente. Avevamo la camera vicino all’ascensore e il “bip” dei pulsanti si sentiva chiaramente, ma soprattutto abbiamo sentito molto forte il rumore del tram che passa durante tutta la notte, rendendo davvero difficile riposare. Anche la colazione lascia a desiderare: non è il classico buffet continentale, ma viene gestita tramite un bar esterno e, considerando il prezzo pagato, risulta piuttosto deludente, viene proposta una singola portata, piuttosto scarsa. L’unico vero punto a favore è la posizione: l’hotel è attaccato alla metro e abbastanza comodo per raggiungere alcuni punti di interesse anche a piedi. Non lo consiglierei

I’ve been there as a guest already 4-5 times and I think that it is a good option for one night, as it is situated next to the Lion Bridge metro station and also in a walking distance from some of the important spots in Sofia. The staff and rooms could be better, but as I said - for a one night stay it’s ok. I made use of the breakfast at the 1920 café one time as well, but I haven’t booked it together with the accommodation. The café is situated in the same building as the hotel and I think that they offer pretty decent food and coffee. Update: Unfortunately I have to give a negative review this time. During my last visit I forgot my iPhone charger here and asked the receptionist to keep it until I come to take it back. Now I’m staying here again - only because of the fact that I wanted to get back my charger and I’ve got a charger, that isn’t mine. Mine was an original Apple charger and the one I’ve got back is a cheap used one that is luckily also matching my phone, but this is an absolute disaster. I bought my charger just a few months ago and it’s price was as high as my stay at this hotel and someone just decided to keep it for himself and to give me a used cheap charger instead. I’m furious and I don’t think that I’ll stay at this hotel again.
