5 Vintage Hostel

A small, boutique and charming place for retro accommodation, made with a lot of desire and love. It is located in the very heart of Sofia in one of the XX century neoclassical buildings in a central, but peaceful area, just few steps away from the main pedestrian shopping street - Vitosha and on a walking distance from all the important city landmarks - National Palace of Culture, National Theatre.

Absolutely Fantastic!

Reviewed By JomarVenter

5 Vintage Guest House exceeded expectations in every way. From beginning to end it was just a pleasure. Olivera welcomed me warmly and set the tone for an excellent stay.What a Star! She handled my check-in very professionally (and was always available to answer questions and assist where possible.) I immediately felt like a valued guest. The studio room is even more impressive than on the photos. It is extremely clean and very well situated. The bed is comfortable and the on suite bathroom large with fantastic water pressure in the shower. What more can you want? The area is safe and central. Exploring the city is exceedingly easy with the nearby public transport stops. There is an array of amenities with everything you might need for even an extended stay. I was so sad to leave this fantastic property. I would be happy to recommend the 5 Vintage Guest House to anyone looking forward to an unforgettable stay Sofia.

Reservation problems

Reviewed By Slovv

We made a reservation and got it confirmed by the hostel. At the evening when we arrived, there was no room for us. It was late... Nobody informed us, even though I wrote to them few hours before just to let them know the exact time of arrival. The owner knew for the mess, but it looked like nobody really cared.

The Pop Bogomil family hotel is a no frills budget hotel, I met 3 lady receptionists and all were lovely. I was travelling alone and need a stick to walk, they were all very kind to me. A small double room very comfortable. Lovely bed and so clean. Would stay again.

Hostel Alex 1

Basic and uninspired.

Reviewed By ExplorerSaru

The rooms priced changed on check in, which was a bit dishonest i feel but it was still fairly cheap and as it was 3am, we didnt have a whole lot of option. The room was very basic. 3 beds. 1 side table. 1 TV (i don't know if it worked). & 1 slim cupboard. The bathroom was shared and rather cramped, but i don't think anyone was on our floor. Located near the bus/train station. Approx 20 minute walk into town. The place did have WIFI

Looked after by friendly senior people, but that's it. The building is pretty run down, smells like mold everywhere, water accumulates in the bathroom floor, very very noisy if you leave the window open.

Great deals

It’s pretty great for its price. The staffs are nice and they really took care of the facility while staying there. The location is alright due to it being close to the metro, grocery store and also the gym.

Great hostel

Reviewed By oliviabM1732RZ

We stayed here in beginning of October and we loved it. The staff were really lovely, the dorms were a good size and everything was clean. Our beds were really comfy (which made it difficult to want to get out of them after a heavy night on the bevs). The kitchen and communal area are small and cosy which is nice because it means you’ll meet and interact more with people. The managers a legend and did not judge us for rolling in at 6am from the night before and having shots for breakfast, she also took us out and showed us really cool bars. Would definitely recommend this place, great hostel hit them up if you’re staying in Sofia.

Hostel Lavele

A hostel that combines the comfort of a budget hotel with the coziness of a guesthouse and the low prices of a hostel. It is located in the heart of the Bulgarian capital, at some 100m from St. Nedelya square, which is the starting point for exploring Sofia. Hidden in a tiny street, it offers tranquility during the night.

You can give a chance

Reviewed By Madalina L

I was there with a project. Many people, many opinions. It is clean and located close to the city center. I found it good for students but also perfect for anyone who don't have huge expectations from a hostal. At least is clean, quiet and you have a karaoke pub just near. I didn't enjoyed the breakfast very much, but maybe things changed till then. Have to mention that I was there in April 2015

Amazing surprise

Reviewed By Whatsername_93

We stayed in the hostel for three nights in February. We had read the reviews but as it’s an hostel we weren’t expecting something adequate to super cheap price we were paying, but it was a nice surprise. The building was actually super bad and smelly (the hostel is on the second floor) but the inside of the hostel is super nice and completely different from the rest of the building. We had booked a double room with private bathroom. The room was nice, warm and clean. Only bad thing is that we didn’t have a double bed but two single beds that couldn’t be joined perfectly so we slept with a hole between us, but no big deal. The position of the hostel is good, we walked everywhere without the need to use the public transportation (btw it is good in case you want/need it). Last but not the least, Peter, the host, was super nice with us. He waited for us (we arrived 9-9.30pm) and helped us to find a place to have dinner and talked us about the city in the way, we really appreciated that. In the end, I would 100% recommend this hostel
