My stay at the hotel was overall quite pleasant, thanks to its fantastic location right in the center of Veliko Tarnovo. The rooms were clean and had good amenities, though some of the furniture felt a bit dated. The service from the staff was friendly and helpful, which made my visit more enjoyable. However, I found the dining options to be a bit basic and not up to par with a 4-star standard.

I had a decent stay at this hotel, which is conveniently located near many attractions and made it easy for me to explore the area. The rooms were comfortable, but I felt they could have offered a better view.

The hotel offers a great central location, making it easy to explore most attractions on foot. However, the rooms need a bit of an update and were overall not very romantic, plus the service could use some improvement as it felt quite uncomfortable at times. On the bright side, the view from the room was fantastic, overlooking the fortress. Overall, it's a decent stay if you can overlook the room condition and service issues.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The location is simply perfect, with great views of the castle and close to local attractions. However, the rooms left a lot to be desired—they were quite hot and the furnishings felt outdated. The service was incredibly friendly, and I appreciated the complimentary welcome drink. Dining was also lacking, as the breakfast wasn’t up to the standards I expected for a four-star hotel.
