The location was great and the beds were very comfortable. The rooms are small, but adequate. Staff is there between about 10 and 7 so if you’re out early for the day, there is no one there to answer any questions or help out. When the staff are there they were very helpful. Really my only complaint is that the description says that there is “self-serve laundry” on site. In fact, the laundry must be done by a staff member (so can only be started when they arrive, and must be completed by 7) and is quite expensive at 10€ per load. We had booked this spot at the very middle of our trip because we expected to be able to do our laundry efficiently and cheaply. The description of the services available should be updated to reflect the reality so expectations are managed.

Diverse city

Beautiful little cozy flat, with all you need for a short stay, having coffee and tea available is a delight when traveling solo. Only thing missing is a real person form the place welcoming you and ensure you don’t need anything.

This guesthouse is just gorgeous. We rented a room with private bathroom. I was amazed at the cleanliness of not only our room, but the common areas and shred bathrooms. The location is ideal, making it possible to walk everywhere. I would definitely stay here again.

Cute and cosy

Considering the size of the room, there were a lot amenities and attention to detail. I would have appreciated the check in information before arriving - they said there was an error on the system so they couldn't reply to my late checkin request. Nevertheless, a quick phonecall dealt with it. I would stay again.

Lovely stay at 5 Vintage

We enjoyed our stay at 5 Vintage and would definitely recommend it to anyone staying in Sofia. The staff were incredibly welcoming and lovely, and the room was clean and comfortable with some nice touches in the shared kitchen. We were right in the center of town which made getting around really easy. Great place to stay if you want to explore Sofia.

What an absolute pleasure it was to stay at 5 Vintage Guest House. From the warm reception and orientation tour to the charming decor. This place makes you feel at home. The helpfulness of each and every staff member I encountered was outstanding. The quaint atmosphere, especially the shared communal kitchen with complimentary snacks and coffee and tea makes you feel like your coming home to grandmas house. I can’t praise the cleanliness of the entire establishment especially the rooms enough. The location is absolutely perfect within walking distance of stores, restaurants and the Christmas market. The main walking boulevard is one minute away yet the guest house is on a quiet side street. Thank you to all staff for an absolutely amazing stay. Other establishments should learn from you!

The reservation desk was very prompt with all their communication and arranged self check in. The property is very well maintained with a lot of free high quality snacks for guests. And to top it all the place is less than five minutes walk to the Vitosha Boulevard pedestrian street and most other Sofia attractions.

I couldn't figure out if this was a 'hostel' or a 'hotel' when booking, but it is more of a hostel type place in that there are common areas. I had a single room (looked just like the one picture with the black bathroom with license plates). Everything appeared to be clean and in good condition. Both the mattress and the pillow could use an upgrade, in that neither one was very firm/fluffy. They were okay, but more on the 'hostel' side than a 'hotel' type. As someone else mentioned, the kitchen is very narrow so if more than one (maybe two) people are in there at once it would be cramped. No one was ever in there at the same time as me so it was fine. Plenty of kitchen things to cook and eat on site. Very close to all the main attractions. Check-in and Check-out were easy. I think there is more than one building. Some of the phones on the website must the the other building. I was in the gray building which had about 3-4 rooms, a kitchen (not the white one pictured here) and dining room. They have a door marked laundry but I don't know if that was available to guests. They also had free snacks (sweets) if you need a little pick me up along the way. Coffee and tea is also free. Soap and shampoo provided in room. (Excuse my mess in the bedroom, should have moved that before the photo but oh well.)

I'd go back

They lost a star due to the laundry being down. It was something I was needing and relying on and it wasn't available. Staff did their best to help but there just weren't other options around that would assist. Cons: No laundry Super squeaky floor and thin walls Tiny showers Pros: Super clean Great location Helpful staff
