We stayed at the Hostel Mostels in Veliko Tarnovo and Plovdiv too - this was probably the nicest after the one in Veliko Tarnovo (which was amazing and I would highly recommend). Positives: - We had a double room in a building which was around 5 minutes walk down the street from the main building, which was a decent size... More

We booked a private double room which turned out to be across an intersection, down a side street, through a graffitied steel door and up three flights of stairs from the main hostel. However, the room was spacious (loved the stencilled chandeliers, mirror and telephone on the walls!), clean and despite there being four bedrooms we never saw any other... More

Friendly busy hostel done out like something Gaudi designed. Open plan lounge / reception / kitchen makes a friendly hang-out space. We stayed in a double room, these are over the road and down a side street, a couple of flights of stairs up in an apartment block. This was fine, fairly spartan but the bed was comfy and the...

This is the best hostel I ever stayed in. They have some good day trips and the staff is really helpful. Free breakfast is Amazing. Also, the layout works really well. There is a large, comfortable common area. I met lots of other travellers.

From the time we emailed to make a booking (great value) - we didn't know what to expect! However, the receptionists made us feel confortable, they were friendly and full of smiles (re-assuring after a 5h bus trip). We were servered fresh coffee and given a map as well as explanations on tours around Sofia and nearby places to visit.... More

We stayed for a few nights at this Hostel in a private double. We were lucky as we had a taxi driver who knew where the place was,but it would be tricky to find otherwise. The hostel is off the road, behind a wall with a secure door at the end of a large courtyard. This makes it very secure... More

I loved this hostel. There are great social areas for meeting people but these are also separate from sleeping areas so not noisy. The breakfast is AMAZING and a great way to get to know people over a meal: same with dinner. The location is very central and the staff are always so helpful and friendly. I can't recommend it...

I visited the Hostel Mostel as part of my budgeteurotrip.com tour. It is a good hostel to stay at. The common room is always full of people to hang out with while the rooms are in the upper part of the structure so that are quiet. Breakfast and dinner are included in the price, which is a very good benefit... More

I would really recommend hostel mostel. I was travelling alone on my first visit to bulgaria. Not only was the hostel ease to find and in a good location - meaning that I could wander around the city with ease, but the staff were very welcoming and helpful. The spent about 10 minutes explaining where to visit, which restuarants and... More
