The hotel is in an excellent location - really close to the metro line that takes to and from the airport, walking distance from the city centre and a number of restaurants, cafes, and shops in the area. The room was freshly renovated (or maybe even brand new), clean and comfortable, and the breakfast is also hearty and delicious. The staff are very friendly and helpful. I visit Sofia and stay in a hotel about once a year and this is definitely a place I will go back to!

I suppose the two small things I would bring up as areas for improvement are that after a few days in the hotel, the breakfast can feel a bit “samey” - a bit more variety would be nice, though I do have to say it is all tasty and fresh and I didn’t have any issue with the food itself. Another thing was the fact there was a kettle and cups in the room, but no tea or coffee to use it with: not sure if it was an accidental omission or always the plan. There were however two Rafaelo chocolates, which was a nice touch.

Although the hotel did not offer breakfast, we were offered coffees or teas during the day free of charge. Parking was close by. Rooms were very nice, tv included Netflix. Staff were very hospitable and could communicate well in English.

Nothing to complain about

Stylish centrally located hotel. Brand new and clean. The restaurant is still under construction. Very friendly stuff, all necessary amenities in the room including electric kettle. Should specially note a lot of electric sockets in the room, never had a problem to charge a gadget. Very comfortable bathroom with the non-leaking shower which is a rear thing in Sofia. Quite good noise insulation. The neighbors can hardly be heard. The Jazz/rock bar in the basement was never heard during my several stays on different floors.

A very hard door closers in the rooms. They work silent but one should pull the door really hard to open it.

This is such a lovely hotel. The room was very big, window partly openable, lots of sockets, good temperature, many pillows, a big shower stall. Friendly staff. The breakfast might not look like much, but it had something from everything. The location is very close to the center, the metro station and a supermarket. I didn't check out the bar, but it looked lovely on the pictures. There is also an art gallery. I would definitely stay there again if I came back for another visit.

There was a strange noise up until the night. It almost sounded like some kind of a generator. I have no idea where it came from. But if you're noise sensitive, better use earplugs. And the ventilation in the bathroom never stopped (but that wasn't the noise).

Great breakfast, great staff, located in a quiet street near the synagoge and mosque, great connections to the tram network nearby.

Shower is a bit small but manageable.

Very good location, clean big and comfortable room, very silent place, good breakfast and good hospitality. If i will go to Sofia i will stay again here.

All was ok

Wow! What an incredible stay we had at Art Hotel 158 in Sofia! My kids and I spent three fantastic days here, and from the moment we stepped inside, we knew we had found something special. The hotel is a work of art in itself – every corner is decorated with originality and creativity, making it feel like you’re living inside an art gallery (but a super cozy one!). The atmosphere is vibrant yet relaxing, perfect for unwinding after a day of exploring the city. The staff's warmth and willingness to assist were truly remarkable. They were so welcoming and kind, making us feel at home from the moment we arrived, and always ensuring everything was just perfect. Each morning, we enjoyed a delicious and plentiful breakfast—a great variety of options, beautifully served, and enough to fuel us for a full day of adventures. If you're looking for a place that’s stylish, comfortable, welcoming, and perfectly located – this is it! We’ll definitely be back. Angelica

I have stayed here before so know from past experience it was good. Glad to see their standards are just as good. Marie was very helpful when I checked in and even allowed my son to sharey room at minimum extra cost when he missed his flight! The guys on reception next day were very kind and allowed me to park in their reserved space for a few hours whilst I showered and took care of things then loaded up my car. I even got a lovely complimentary espresso.

Not much I didn't like to be honest. Perhaps some free water in the fridge but that's absolutely not a deal breaker let's be honest.

The breakfast was good and the location was excellent - very close to the most visited touristic points of the city.

I had contact with 3 people from the staff. Two of them were INCREDIBLY helpful and super nice willing to help with all the needs. BUT there was one guy in the mid-afternoon/evening shift which was super rude when I simply asked, with 12 hours in advance, if it was possible to prepare a breakfast box for the following day. It was just a question and he totally overreacted saying I should have informed them earlier and that the hotel should not consider my request as a priority simply because they knew I'd be out early in the morning. Chill out, dude! But overall, yeah, the staff was friendly and helpful only with the exception of this other guy.

The stuff was very helpful, - There is bar downstairs, the barmen was cool and kind, you can watch sport there on the large screens. - The receptionist let us to check in 12:00 because we arrived earlier, helped us with booking trip or advising about the city - The room was clean, modern - There is a good restaurant in the hotel for lunch and dinners, and the food there was excellent - Location is awesome, very close to metro, restaurants and to shopping streets.

- Some people need the room to be completly dark to sleep, so adding curtains on the windows will help. - There is a safety box, but it is very lite so you can pick it up (we didn't need it, yet can be improved)
