I liked the hotel - good location - easy walk into the city (about 10 minutes) and close to the thermal water communal springs. There's also a great little convenience shop on the corner where you can buy mini take-away cups of coffee and snacks. Found the hotel's breakfast typically European with a mix of cheese and ham as well... More

A nice clean hotel with reasonably friendly staff. The breakfast was OK but the earlier you got there the better the choice. The hotel is very close to the city centre and provided us with a good base for our trip.

The room was OK, breakfast OK, no problems to speak of (landing a bit grubby maybe), but some staff ()especially on reception) gave the strong impression that their job was mainly a matter of "processing" guests. Process them in, process them out, get their room numbers at breakfast and tick them off on a list... , which when it's so... More

Very nice hotel great value for money. Just a short walk 5mins to centre. Good size room with clean and up to date bathroom. Lift with outside view, novel. Staff very helpful and friendly. Unfortunately the restaurant was closed for works so I can’t comment. Breakfast was ok served in the bar.

Somewhat spartan, Hotel Light is NOT a four star hotel, which it rates itself. It is 2, maybe 3 star. The small room was not very clean and sparsely furnished. The small bathroom was well appointed, but no amenities were offered. The safe is not secured to the closet and can be removed. The bed was comfortable. The location is... More

The Light Hotel is located in a quiet side street in the very centre of Sofia. It is 5 minutes walk to the main shopping street (Vitosha) and all the main central sights. It is conveniently located between the central area and the railway station (10 minutes walk). The hotel is of a high standard. It is modern, spotlessly clean,... More

My single room was bright and very clean - however with the usual Bulgarian problem of the flat sheet being the same size as the mattress, so you can't tuck it in and you wake up lying on the bare mattress. Still, a very nice room. Breakfast was quite good. The first receptionist I saw was very cold, but the... More
