Great hotel in a historic town in Bulgaria. Great size room and bathroom. Top notch hospitality at all hours of the day and night. Also, the ground floor had a pleasant surprise, a souvenir shop with authentic Bulgarian clay pots and other merchandise. We will definitely be back.

We went to Kazanlak for the Rose Festival and booked this accommodation in Shipka. The apartment is on the first floor and is about 300m from the Shipka bus station which we depended on because we do not drive. It is also right next to the Shipka Memorial Church and a restaurant is 10m from the apartment so it really is located in the prime spot. As far as the interior of the apartment is concerned, it is a mansion as the details of the decor suggests that the owners clearly have impeccable taste. The place is just elegant and the bed is super comfortable. There is a spacious living room and dining area. The coffee capsules the owner provided was also a nice touch. The bathroom comes with a large sink and the shower arrangement is very enjoyable. The apartment even comes with a sauna which we did not use and laptops are provided. There was also a DVD entertainment system and a gigantic TV. Everything about the apartment is a statement of quality and class. Being able to come back to an apartment like this after a long day is truly a treat. The owners are very kind people and did us a favor by taking us to Buzludzha and waited an hour for us for a small fee which we really appreciated.

Stayed at the hotel for a single night with my wife and two kids. The location is absolutely stunning with the best view you can imagine. In the morning we hiked to the Ispel peak nearby, which I can only recommend.

I was in the area to visit the Buzludzha Monument, and this hotel is right at the top of Shipka Pass, which means it was right at the start of one of the two roads up to the monument. I was there between seasons, and the proprietor basically opened up just for me, had a nice room waiting with a heater, and made me a lovely bowl of soup. Looks like this place would be super fun during trekking season, with a bar restaurant and game room, huge wood burning stove and pool table. Great off the beaten track experience, would stay here again in a heartbeat.

The place is like in a fairy tale. I just can't imagine the hard work the owners did to make it so magical. It's got everything and beyond. You can spend whole day exploring all the nice spots for leisure. Everything is done with taste and care. You can even walk around the sunflower fields and enjoy the company of a family of wild hares :) Great job, guys!

Peaceful place with a lovely garden. The host was very kind and gave us good tips for the rose valley.
We would have loved to stay an extra night but (no wonder) was fully booked.
Super recommend!

In the short period we stayed, we managed to see all the sights around the town. The responsive staff advises us on how to get around everything so that we don't waste our time and where they cook the most deliciously so that we don't go astray. Luckily for us, the place to eat turned out to be no more than 15 minutes from the hotel itself. The short walk between the hotel and the restaurant gives an opportunity to see a small part of the city, revealing part of its unique charm.
On the negative side of things, I would be hard pressed to describe any. I would be lying to myself if I said we experienced any kind of inconvenience.

Nice located, just near "Valley of the Thracian kings", you can visit the Thracian Thombs / tumulus that was excavated until now, you can visit the Roses Fields (if you are there in June / July) and the Roses oil museum in Kazanlak, do not forget to visit also the beautiful Shipka Orthodox Church.
And of course, Buzludha and Socialis Torch monuments, also the Shipka Peek monument need to be visited!
What did we like? To say EVERYTHING in capitals seems a little over the top but it’s true. We arrived after a hot and unpleasant train/taxi journey from Sofia and were greeted like family. The owners asked about dietary needs for breakfast, sorted out transport for the following day to Shipka Pass and the ‘UFO’ structure.
Breakfast was delicious and home cooked.
Authentic friendly Bulgarian hotel.
If we are passing along the Valley of Roses we will detour to stay here. It’s that good!
Very lovely and spacious luxery studio apartment. Private sauna, massage chair, Netflix, 250m from Shipka Memorial Church and in walking distance of the very lovely and authentic village of Shipka. Private parking space big enough for our van. Our 2 dogs were welcome, extra 5 euro per pet. Comfortable bed and chairs, good WiFi, very clean and put much attention to all details. There is a microwave and an electric pan to cook breakfast or diner.
Charming house near the centre of Shipka. Helpful and friendly owners, who were able to offer some useful advice. Fantastic outside cooking (BBQ) facilities and a beautiful garden in general. An easy drive to the Shipka battlefield/monument, for history buffs, and also for other activities, such as horse riding. Well-stocked shop a few metres walk away...
Great hotel in a historic town in Bulgaria. Great size room and bathroom. Top notch hospitality at all hours of the day and night. Also, the ground floor had a pleasant surprise, a souvenir shop with authentic Bulgarian clay pots and other merchandise. We will definitely be back.
- Staff very helpful
- Very good restaurant (fortunately, as there is close to nothing around), even if maybe a little bit overpriced
- very good location, in the middle of the forest (the hotel even provides a map for some trekking paths), and of course 5 mn to the monument
Lady at the reception is very kind and helpful. The rooms are comfortable. Next door is a good restaurant, here you can also eat à la carte breakfast for a good price. Free parking in front of the hotel. Short walk to the local church with shiny golden roof.
I arrived quite late at the hotel and there were not any guest. The hosts were extremely welcoming even though we couldnt comunicate because if the language barrier. I got a better room for my needs and also she prepared a nice meal in the evening.
Friendly staff. Ready parking (February). Restaurant open all day and evening. Helped with gluten allergy friendly meals. Good location for visiting Russian church. Shipka and Budluzhda within easy driving distance (weather permitting)
The location was perfect, very quite. Host was very kind, room spacious, breakfast delicious, the poll was great after a long day trip. Very well equipped hotel with everything needed. I really recommend it.
Beautiful location in the middle of the beech forest, cool and quiet. Very nice staff and comfortable room. Included breakfast was great. We had a lunch and three dinners at the hotel and enjoyed them.
Great hotel and location close to Buzludzha Monument. Restaurant served good food in the evening and for breakfast. Rooms large and clean. Nice sauna, steam room and hot tub area. Staff were helpful.
Tosha was very friendly! We were there for Bulgarian Easter and were treated great. Also slept like a baby - the air so near the mountains was amazing and the town is very calm⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Nice clean and big space in Shipka, close to Buzludzja Monument and to other town like kazalank. Recommend it to anyone who wants a quite town near the monument and the mountains .
