As with the previous review, myself, my partner and his family including a 6 month old baby and 2 pensioners were put up in this hotel due to our flight being cancelled.

I honestly have never ever experienced anything as awful as the Hotel Vanisko. The staff were rude when we requested a cleaner to mop up our overflowing drain in the bathroom (first thing we saw when we walked in, not nice!), there were exposed wires around the fittings and due to what I can only assume was the drain, the room smelt like a sewer.

Downstairs in the main lobby was actually quite nice, which was a shame.

Food was also poor, I know it was free but I refuse to eat pork that's caked in salt and raw in the middle.

Needless to say, we only spent one night before looking for an alternative.

I would advise anyone looking at this hotel to strongly reconsider, it's filthy and I can't imagine how horrible it would have been to stay there the full 10 days we were delayed.

I would suggest checking out the Sofia hotel instead. It's close to the airport and more importantly, very very clean!

my husband and I (along with approx 200 other people) were put up at this hotel after our flight was cancelled TWICE we arrived at 4 am on saturday 12th september and left at 6pm sunday 13th.
The man on reception with a helper managed quite well to get us all rooms and we were quite happy with ours-it was very spacious and comfortable with a lovely bathroom television, fridge and a nice balcony (overlooking the pool)
Breakfast was good with a good selection (especially at short notice) the lunch and evening meal although exactly the same was delicious (would have liked something different but again great at such short notice)
I would happily have stayed here another few nights, but would only use as a base to get around as there is nothing much to do at the hotel or nearby

Thomas Cook provided this hotel accomodation overnight as our flight was delayed. Can you imagine staying in a 2star after a week at a 4star hotel. What a crap way to complete your holiday stay. The Manager was very unhelpful and rued. Waited hours to get a room at 10pm at night. The food was stale and I wouldnt give it to my dog. The room was 3 single wooden beds (very uncomfortable), a small portable tv (poor reception), a fridge, shower and toilet. Luxury items included A/C which didnt work properly and view of the pool which overlooked a used car lot. No smoke detector in rooms (incase of a fire) and no signed fire exist or plan? Very noisy location with heavy traffic as very close to major airport. Last but not least paper thin walls... could hear everything including people switch off/on lights!! Do not stay here unless like us you had NO CHOICE!!
