I had a wonderful three day stay at the Hotel Expo, the lady at the front desk did a marvellous job assisting me with anything I asked her to explain and show me. A special employee that should be recognized. Room was always made up and tidied when I returned. Easy to get to from the airport by taxi or Metro

Great location - next to metro. Modern and spacious rooms. Excellent choice for comfortable travel since city center is easily accessible by metro. Also 10 mins to airport using metro.

The rooms are outdated and noisy. We could hear guests in adjacent rooms walking in and out all night long. There is no climate control in the room ( either was not working or was disconnected) thus the room was quite cold. The bathroom was also outdated and somewhat dirty- there was hair on the floor and the sink. The service at the restaurant on site was good however the food was mediocre. The property is advertising free parking but it is very difficult , if at all , to find a parking spot since the parking is super small and not for hotel guests only.

The hotel was nice. The regular breakfast starting at 7 am is amazing.The early breakfast is very limited. The hotel advertised free airport shuttle, but in reality they offer a shuttle/taxi from the airport only. If you are leaving and need to go from the hotel to the airport they don't offer transportation. The free airport shuttle is offered in one direction only. Overall a good experience.

I stayed here on business for 3 nights, on arrival an Airport Shuttle had been organised for me, but it took me to a sister hotel where a free taxi was then ordered. The next day and subsequent days, I was working out of the airport and found that the only way to get to and from was to book a taxi each time, with a total cost of 63.12 Lev ( €32.43), while this is not a massive amount, I do feel rather disappointed that I had to pay every time, including the day of my check out to get to the airport when a Free Shuttle is advertised. I did ask reception about this on every occasion, but they were reluctant to help. The hotel and room were very nice, the breakfast was also good, it is a shame that the Free Airport Shuttle was not free or did not exist. Sadly the next time will be staying in Sofia for work in the coming months, I will have to find a different hotel.

The hotel itself is okay. However, there is nothing to eat around the area at 7pm on a Saturday night. The hotel's restaurant was closed, because they had 2 weddings that evening. Never mind that there were other guests in the hotel who were left with nothing to eat for dinner, since the closest restaurant was a 15min walk down the highway. In addition, they placed us on a floor with some of the wedding party. We didn't sleep all night! We had a whole day of flights ahead of us and wanted to stay at a hotel to get a good night's rest. Instead, we slept about 3 hours, constantly being woken up by the noise in the hallway. We understand that people will be noisy during a wedding, but perhaps don't place other guests on the same floor! The person at the front desk was nice and friendly, but he himself was surprised that there was no restaurant available for us. Overall, one of the worst experiences at a hotel I've had. Will not return and will make sure I warn everyone I know.
