Fantastic stay! The hotel was clean, comfortable, and welcoming. The staff were friendly and helpful, and the service was excellent. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay and would definitely recommend it. Looking forward to coming back!

After spending one night at a "horror hotel" upon arrival, we were able to book our group into the Best Western Plus Olives City Hotel. This was the right move - we were three adults and two kids, and the "two-room apartment" they had on the 7th floor was perfect, and an added bonus of a hotel parking and an indoor pool made our lives easier for the duration of the stay. Breakfast was good too! Recommend!

Room was great and we enjoyed the Greek restaurant. We picked this hotel for the pool but we’re not able to use it. It closes at 1900 in evening and the morning held a private event for families with small children from 900-1330. There is an extra charge to use sauna and steam rooms.

Nice and clean but…

Nice, clean, new hotel. However, there was a party in the restaurant on the ground floor and we could hear the thumping of the music all the way to the 5th floor till 2am. Also, apparently, in late May, it is not hot enough to have the AC running so we had to open the balcony door to let cool air in during the night. This made the music even more audible.

old, outdated. My bed sheets on the sofa were not changed. Very cramped. Depressing feel about design, lack of natural light. There was kitchen, but no utensils or pots or pans. There is nothing around. On the plus side its conveniently located if you need to get to the airport.

The room was good, but they didn't clean the room, didn't change the sheets, and didn't wash the spoons and cups (told me to go buy Scotch-Brite and soap). They only organized the bed and that was it. The shower drain was blocked; I told them on the first day and nothing was fixed. The light on the balcony didn't work, and they didn't fix it. Overall, it was supposed to be a 4-star hotel, and if they had been cleaning and fixing the broken items, I would have enjoyed it, but for me, it was a bad experience.

It was in a nice area with a wakable distance to the center of Sofia thru the parks and close to Metro Dimitrov. Nice & very friendly staff. Rooms were modern & clean

2/10 Poor

We had a very disappointing stay. Both rooms we were given had clear cleanliness issues, which is unacceptable when you’re paying for a hotel. Despite raising this properly and providing documentation, we received no meaningful response—just a €10 refund at checkout with no apology. The handling of the situation was poor, and the staff showed little understanding, even interrupting when we tried to explain. Based on this experience, I would not recommend staying here.

Good location and free parking are the best perks of this hotel. As a loyal clients to Olives City Hotel over the years we noticed that the cleanliness of the rooms is not at the level it used to be.

I stayed at this hotel for 9 nights, and while the room itself was fairly clean, the overall experience was disappointing. Housekeeping was very inconsistent. The bed was often made poorly, coffee, tea, soap, and other supplies were frequently not replenished, used coffee cups were sometimes left dirty, and we were often given fewer towels than the number of guests in the room. The biggest issue was the air conditioning. It automatically shuts off whenever the balcony door is opened and often had to be manually reset by the front desk. On the day we arrived after a long international flight, the AC wasn't working, and we had to switch rooms after my exhausted daughter had already fallen asleep. Then, on the fifth night at 1 a.m., the AC failed again, and we were told we might have to change rooms in the middle of the night while our children were sleeping. The hotel also advertises a pool, but it was extremely small and covered the entire time we were there, making it unusable. Overall, the hotel did not meet expectations due to poor housekeeping, ongoing maintenance issues, and misleading amenities. I would not stay here again.

Uhm.

We booked the hotel wanting one with the spa. And the spa was not working. The area is in large construction so there is almost nothing. Room ok, but far from the price they ask.

Slightly disappointed

The sauna and steam room you gave to pay extra and you can’t use the swimming pool without a cap.. the tea, coffee and water weren’t replaced every day so you had to ask.. the distance from the city isn’t right as we always had to use a taxi to get to the city centre and back as the hotel was so far.. also the taxis scammed us twice..

2/10 Poor

Reception is terrible, we ask if there is umbrella, he states he cannot help. Safe doesn’t work, room is dark, room cleaning is so bad and there is a strange electrical noise buzz every 3 mins, unplug every thing and it still there. I cannot believe this is Best Western plus quality, I will never go to this hotel if visiting Bulgaria.

Premetto che la stanza è ampia e confortevole dotata di balconcino e di ogni comfort. Qui però finiscono le buone notizie a causa di un personale inetto, incapace e privo di empatia e di problem resolving che hanno rovinato il nostro soggiorno perché non pulivano le stanze, non rifornivano caffè e acqua, non risolvevano piccoli problemi (asciugacapelli, scarichi del lavandino ). Abbiamo dovuto sopportare che la piscina fosse per noi inaccessibile per un party privato, ho dovuto pagare una bottiglia d ‘acqua 5,9 leva a colazione perché era a portata di mano ma non si poteva prendere…ogni diritto andava preteso (refill d’acqua caffè carta igienica asciugamani) altrimenti non veniva onorato benché pagato. Le 4 stelle sono molto generose. I bulgari sono molto chiusi ed inospitali
