We stayed here for 4 days in August 2010, I thought I stepped through a portal into a different time, I think the 1970's sounds about right. We were there with our family from Sofia and Plovdiv so the language was not a problem. We got two suites on the 16th floor so the views were absolutely stunning. It was... More

If you are a little wild and will use the hotel mostly for sleeping, then this is the hotel for you.

Acces to the... More

Well we just got back from a one week stay in Albena, Bulgaria where we stayed at the Dobrodja Hotel. The hotel is rated on tripadvisor as a 4 star hotel and ranked number two by its members. Unfortunately, this is far from the truth. I live in the US and I understand that the rating system in Europe is... More
