10 / 10Outstanding·May 2026
Located a bit up from the main restaurant area, so it's peaceful in the evening. Had dinner on the terrace, listening to the nightingales and eating the best mish-mash ever. Good homemade rakia and wine, too. Bedroom was comfortable and the buffet breakfast was nice. (Repeat visit. Visited at the end of May.)
Just a warning: parking might be a problem in high season.

The city is very charming and don´t offer many choices for hotels. This one was old, but also a little bit rustic, considering the city atmosphere. The breakfast, even though without many choices was very tastefull.
The matress was a little bit wavy and not permmit a complete sleep. Another point was the shower with no curtains or plastic/glass box, what means that is impossible to take a bath and not to wet the intire space in the bathroom.
7 / 10Good·Oct 2025
This traditional home retains much of its original ambience and as such was an experience we were looking for as we explored Bulgaria. It was comfortable enough as long as you are ok getting your bags up two flights of stairs. Parking was anything you could find around on the narrow streets and it was not difficult to find. The location was perfect for exploring this old town on foot
The dinner at their restaurant was a bit dissapointing; we were looking forward to the traditional Bulgarian dishes, but compared to what we had elsewhere it fell a little short for us. And having cats roaming around your table while you eat is not something I care for
6 / 10Average·May 2026
The hotel was clean and people very friendly, the breakfast was good. the location was good as well.
the room did not have a little table or two chairs for example even though there was plenty of space. The furnishings are a bit outdated. In the bathroom the water was either too hot or cold, when taking a shower all is wet - there is no separation for shower.
