The hotel was clean , the shuttle excellent service, the staff friendly and helpful. Rooms were small and not much fresh air, breakfast was good ,but small selection. My expectation for the original price of almost 100 $ was much better facility ans service. For this standard is overrrated and expensive. But generally clean and the bed and pillows very comfortable 😌

The Ibis Sofia airport is a typical airport hotel. The free transport is good. The dining oportunities are limited. The rooms have nothing belonging to the hotel other than the TV, sheets and towels. The room had a coffee maker, but not a cup to use. The air conditioning in the room did not work. If you need any hotel supplies, buy them at the Sofia airport before arriving at the hotel.

A lot of dust under the table and in the room corners, hair all over the place... Airport shuttle delayed for 10 minutes, actually arrived to hotel parking 10 minutes after scheduled departure time due to make a ride for hotel stuff. Personnel at the reception just responded for inquiry just wait for the shuttle, no explanation, no estimated time...

Poor hotel, not meeting Ibis standards
I have stayed in Ibis hotels all over Europe and Asia so I know what the standard should be and this hotel didn’t meet it. There is a lack of basic amenities in the room; no bin in bedroom, no cups or glasses of any description in the room, a kettle was provided in the room but nothing else was provided to assist you in making a hot drink. The restaurant was only open 5pm - 10pm despite the advertised hours being much longer. Bar drinks very expensive. In the room there was dirt, grime and hairs everywhere. No attention to detail in the cleaning regime. The walls were thin, I could hear next door getting a text message, having a normal chat, running the tap etc. The towels are thin, scruffy and old looking. Inefficient and loud aircon system in room. I was surprised to read that the hotel was built in 2014 as everything looks tired, dirty and as a result feels older than 10 years. From time to time the room smelled of cigarette smoke which seemed to be coming through the bathroom air vent. Expensive hotel for what it is. Would never stay again. Ordered a vegetarian take away breakfast for an early departure but none was provided, in the morning there were no veggie breakfasts available. Pros Bed reasonably comfortable although mattress topper moved about a bit. Close to airport 24/7 Airport shuttle (book your time at reception)

As an airport hotel for short stays, it is very good. The distant view out my window was to the Balkans, which was interesting because of the snow and storms. Good entertainment without TV! Then the view next to the hotel is apparently the Sofia car impound lot. Even though the views are grand, the neighborhood is not so nice. Stay inside!

Great access from airport, leaving by car is traffic plagued in what appears to be a rather unsafe neighbourhood, though the hotel was very secure. Staff were professional, helpful and exceptionally friendly.
