    Every new visitor to the town goes to Vitosha Boulevard but actually it is nothing special there. Only shops and cafes - definitely not the best in town. Plus it is overcrowded because it's popularity...  more »

Where to stay in Sofia

©
Set yourself up for easy and convenient access to Sofia's historical core and its most popular tourist sites by staying in an upscale hotel in the city center. While you'll find some hotels on the main boulevard, look for modern hotels off the main streets to keep costs lower. Staying outside the center in the outlying neighborhoods means you'll need to use public transportation, but the network is extensive and accommodation prices farther out are lower. For a real budget-friendly option, consider staying in a hostel; the city boasts a wide array of these, many of which include breakfast.
