It’s an old House built 1928 for the family of a well known military doctor.We have tried to preserve the old spirit of the place as well as making it modern and comfortable.Our Bar&Garden underneath offer you a wide variety of drinks and cocktails and round a clock English speaking stuff who will be happy to assist you with directions and any needs you might have.
We have been a couple for eighteen years.I run the flats and the bar underneath them and my husband works in the movie industry as a assistant to all the hollywood actors who come to shoot movies here.We have had the bar since 2005 and we have a taste for antiques and vintage stuff.We also collect militaria and we plan to turn the basement into a military museum. We have experience in many fields locally and can help you with other needs besides accommodation.
It is a quiet safe and friendly area yet very central situated just off the main shopping street called Vitosha boulevard.There are a great choice of restaurants together with pasty shops and bakerys suitable for the morning breakfast.We are two minutes away from the National Palace of Culture where most musical and theatrical events are held.
