Grami Hotel Sofia

This is not the first time I have stated in Grami it has a perfect location, and the price is good. Also, it is close to some key points.

We slept in this hotel before the flight back to Israel. The hotel provided us with breakfasts to take away. excellent service. The rooms are nice and clean. The hotel is near shopping centers and there is free and organized parking.

Firstly, the Grami hotel is modern, very clean and full of staff who are extremely friendly and helpful. Alas, there were a few small issues that completely detracted from my stay - however bear in mind that other reviews don't mention these issues therefore I could have been unlucky! Firstly the heat in the rooms. I was staying in March and it was below freezing outside at night, but the heat being blasted into the room from the bathroom was unbearable and made me unable to sleep. Turning the thermostat down and trying to turn on the air-con didn't work. This meant the window had to be kept open but whilst my room was great in all other ways, facing a main road which had constant extremely loud vehicles going past throughout the night made it near impossible to sleep. Indeed on one night at ten minutes past midnight, the half-completely building opposite decided to set off what sounded and looked like a professional firework display - no idea why! Anyway, my room was either too warm or too noisy and other colleagues said they encountered the same. They also had the same issue I had with the shower which had very limited pressure when turned on, but then just went cold after 2 minutes after it seemed like all the hot water had gone - this happened on two mornings so maybe being an evening showerer would have been better? Everything else was great. Staff were great - the roof bar was lovely with fine food and drink. Breakfast was typical and if you waited a few minutes, you could actually get some toast which was toasted - a good indicator of a hotel's quality in my book! I would consider the Grami again as I am sure the heat issues were down to me, but I did return exhausted having only slept an hour or two each night.
