About
Hotel Consul

Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Remote location – you'll need transport — The hotel sits a bit outside the centre, so plan for a short drive or tram ride to reach the main sights.
- Front desk can be unattended — One guest found the front desk frequently unattended, which could be an issue if you need help at a busy moment.
- Weak phone signal in some rooms — One review notes a lack of phone signal in the room, making calls difficult without stepping out into the hallway.
- No pets allowed — The hotel doesn't accept pets, so you'll need to make other arrangements if you're travelling with an animal.

7.5Verified guest“A perfectly decent option for a business trip. Everything was clean, the rooms were quiet and large, and the location, while remote, was fine. The staff were polite and incredibly helpful.”
7.5Verified guest“I had an excellent stay for work. The room was fairly big and had an extra bed. The location suited me well and the tram stop was close by.”
7.5Verified guest“Good value for money, and we would definitely stay here again. The place was spotless, the staff were very friendly, and the location was really convenient – close to the airport, the centre and the shops, with the Pirin and Rila mountains within reach. The free parking was a great bonus.”
7.5Verified guest“Breakfast had a great selection. The air conditioning was clean and worked well, and the staff were pleasant. The hotel is in a good spot, quiet and easy to get around from.”
7.5Verified guest“Breakfast was amazing and the staff very attentive. I was a bit disappointed by the lack of phone signal in my room – I had to step into the hallway to make calls – and the front desk was often unattended. Still, for the affordable price and as a stopover, I'd recommend Consul. I had a pleasant stay.”
