Some very petty rules but otherwise ok
The hotel was good, your webpage on the hotel needs updating as I says you get a free breakfast and they refused, so cost me 200 for something I was expecting to come with the room,also I was enquiring regarding the free transfer to the airport and because my departure from the hotel was 1 o’clock I was told that I would have to pay a subsidy for after 12 which it doesn’t show so I got there another way as I felt I had paid a good amount for the suite in stayed in and refused to give them any more, probably cutting off my nose to spite my face but I’m like that

Dear Mr. Anthony,Thank you for taking the time to review your stay with Metropolitan Hotel Sofia, a member of Radisson Individuals.We are glad to have hosted you while in town and are sorry to read that you were disappointed by some aspects of it. Our own webpage states clearly what meal plan a guest has chosen for their stay, but we cannot guarantee the same for third party pages.Our management showed compassion and flexibility in your case and offered a discounted rate for the breakfast.On your check-out you were also provided with a complimentary airport shuttle to show again, our hospitality and strive for providing a comfortable stay.Our team is looking forward to your next trip to town and welcoming you again.Sincerely,Nikolay Milanov

Good location. Helpful employees. Appreciate the shuttle. For me the exercise facilities are the most important and they only have a single functional aerobic machine. This is enough to make me likely not come back.

Travelled with family
Liked: Cleanliness
Disliked: Amenities
Way overpriced for what you get. First of all the hotel hasn’t been renovated since probably 1990s or 2000s. The rooms are dark and barely lit and only basic toiletry provided. No hair conditioner for example. The service is appropriate to the era: we had an early flight and had to be in the airport at 6:50am. When we tried to book the advertised “free airport transfer” we’ve been told the the shuttle departs only at the beginning of an hour, so we had a choice either wake up another hour earlier and spend an extra hour sitting in the airport, or get there late. We chose ordering a taxi at our own expense. Breakfasts are an extra option like in many hotels in Bulgaria and we had prepaid one when we booked the room. But despite the fact that the hotel is close to the airport and many travelers choose it because of this, the hotel does not offer nether early breakfasts (before 7:00 on the weekends) nor lunchboxes, nor any other form of compensation for the service for which they took extra money but never provided. I would advice everyone to avoid this hotel. There are good alternatives in the same area which offer way better accommodation for the same or lower price.

Dear Vadym, Thank you for taking the time to review your stay at Metropolitan Hotel Sofia, a member of Radisson Individuals.We greatly appreciate all of feedback of all our guests.We understand that our rooms are not showcasing the latest in the accommodation furniture, as the one in our rooms has not been changed since our opening in 2008. This is however going to change very soon!We would like to let you know that we provide everything but hair conditioner in our bathrooms, including Shampoo, Body Lotion and Shower Gel.Our free transfer shuttle is available on every hour as we have to be sure that considering all variables on our way to and from the airport we can make it back in time for the next scheduled transport.Our hotel does offer breakfast boxes to everyone who would like to leave the hotel before the start of the breakfast. Our guests rate our BBoxes very highly too. Compensation, however is not possible for reservations not made directly with us.We hope you understand our standpoint and to welcome you again soon and turn your first impressions around for the better.Sincerely,Nikolay MilanovMetropolitan Hotel Sofia, a member of Radisson Individuals

This was a great hotel. They offered free round trip shuttle to and from the airport, which I took advantage of! It was such a nice experience and I didn’t have to worry about finding a cab or take public transportation. My room was clean and cozy. It had a very comfy bed. The bathroom was clean with a shower/tub. This hotel had a spa in it but when I checked in on a Friday the front desk person let me know the spa was only open on the week days. I was a bit bummed I couldn’t enjoy the spa while I was there. Other than that I enjoyed my stay!
