Pros +
- Decent hotel which may not be a modern accomodation but certainly a VFM one. The variety of breakfast and free private parking are much appreciated given the price and the rooms probably show outdated but are spacious and clean.
- The location was superb. There is a large parking lot.
- Close to tram line and grocery
Cons -
- The room was outdated. It smelled outdated. The door of the room should be lifted to be closed. The furniture looked like it was used for more than 30 years. The mini bar was loud. The bathroom door opens spontaneously and the handle detaches randomly. The bath looked dirty. The towel holder was about to come out of the wall. The page of the hotel says that rooms are soundproof - they most certainly are NOT. If you want to heat up the room (for example when you are coming out of the shower) you have to turn on the air-conditioning which in accordance with everything else looks like it has been there for more than 3 decades uncleaned and when turned on was extremely loud. The staff was absent from the breakfast, there was no one to ask for anything. The breakfast was with highly restricted options, which combined with the ambience in the whole hotel makes up for a good decision-making exercise - should I risk it here or go to Billa and get a triangle sandwich. This is the first time I have not been asked by the staff if everything with my stay was okay - maybe because they do really know what their hotel offers.
- First floor rooms are renovated but second floor rooms are horribly old, stinky, and broken down. Rooms smelled like old vomit and felt very dirty, shower is so small you can’t move in it, and the hair dryer has holes in the tubing and doesn’t actually work. Night staff is horribly rude, other staff is perfectly nice. The buffet breakfast had hair in the cheese.

We stayed for a night on our trip to Greece. It was ok, the breakfast very good.

The food at breakfast was very good, the room was clean, there is a large parking in front of the hotel. The door of the room and the door to the balcony weren't very sturdy, they weren't very well fixed. All in all, I would come back if I had to travel again to Sofia.
The doors.
Very welcoming reception concierge.Super air-conditioning in the room.Really good breakfast with nice service.Save parking free of charge.PET FRIENDLY ???
This is mixed experience. I spent thefe 2 nights. The first night was a nightmare. We got aroom on the 3rd floor which is old and poorly maintained. The air condition didn't work in a warm night, and we didn't sleep all that night. We complaied on that evening, but they couldn't find a solution for that night. On the next morning, we asked for early leave, and then they offer another room on ground floor. That room was much better, it resides in renewed section, everything was new and well function.
The old section of the hotel is terrible.
Friendly and helpful personnel, clean & tidy room, excellent breakfast
Nothing to complain
A very good location with free parking, friendly staff and ok ammenities. It's a budget friendly non-nosence option if you're looking for such.
The whole floor smelled of baby's vomit and seemed to be in our room before. It was really unpleasant. Another room might have locked a dog inside and he barked until late night. Horrible!
good breakfast, clean room, comfy beds
in 30+ years of travel ive never experienced staff as helpful, solicitous and professional as the front desk staff (both the manand the woman) at Hotel Forum. When notified that we’d be leaving before the breakfast service, they offered to prepare something without us asking and they were quite generous. very grateful to them. Nice location too.
The staff is very friendly, room and bathroom very clean. Good location and protected parking. The breakfast was perfect. The beds and pillows very comfortable. Its was good price.
Very friendly staff at Reception and Breakfast. Didn't meet the others.Good location in Sofia with free parking and varied and tasty breakfast. Thank you!
Nothing to mention here.
Great location, clean and comfortable rooms, very considerate personel. The breakfast was very good! The price includes the parking in front of the hotel. The area offers diverse public transportation connections. I recommend it!
The Location was all right for our stay and the breakfast was good.
We didn't like the tiny beds. They were so small, not proper for an adult at all. The furniture is old.
The rooms were good. The staff was very friendly. There is a very nice wellness area. The breakfast was excellent. A very negative aspect was that there was no heating knob. It was not possible to turn it off. It was unbearable heat, and there was no point in turning on the air conditioning because the heating could not be adjusted.
Good healthy breakfast with quite room and clean fresh

Staff! The lady on the reception was exceptionally helpful and extremely polite and kind. She guided us through our stay and she responded to all our questions always with smile and positive attitude. Location is very good, it’s outside of the low emission zone, and there is a private free parking for guests of the hotel. The room was spacious, bathroom was very clean and there was a small fridge in the room. Breakfast was decent and tasty. Tram station was ~2min walk away from the hotel where you have a good connection to the city centre. Excellent value for the money, and I would highly recommend it for a short stay!
Initially I was a bit concerned, because I read some not very positive feedbacks. Our experience has been, however, great. It is an old hotel, but recently refurbished, in a residential district close to the city centre. The room was modern and clean, though small, but still big enough for two people. The beds were comfortable. There was everything one may need for a short stay, including a kettle with free tea and coffee. The breakfast was great, as well as the restaurant where we had dinner. The staff was very kind and helpful. There is free parking in front of the hotel – a big asset. One can also get quickly downtown with nearby public transport. Next to the hotel, there is a big superstore, too.
