The staff were friendly, helpful, and responsive, always ready to give directions or recommendations around the city. Considering the location, price, and overall experience, this hostel offers excellent value for money.

"The accomodation had an early check-in (at 8h30), which was really good, because we arrived in the city at dawn. The reception lady was really kind and promptly gave us the instructions for the bedroom. Although her English was not perfect, we quickly understood everything. As the reservation says, the building is very old, but after we reached the appartment, the room was clean and cozy, with all the necessary ammenities. The guest also let us leave the heavy bags in the hostel after the check-out time so that we could better enjoy the city and then we returned to pick them up before leaving at the end of the day."

"Everything was good"

"Le traitement et l'intérêt d'Ibrahim pour l'hôtel"

"il ya seulement 2 toilet"

Marin - 15/07/2025 14:16:01

"Намира се в топ центъра, малка уединена къща в центъра с двор и стаи за гости, посещавам я за 2ри път и съм много доволен, стаите са просторни с удобни легла, ниски цени"

"Персонала донякъде, но липсата на кадри явно се усеща и тук"

Avis de Анжелика Vanessa Family Hotel

"Lovely hotel close to the strip and bars and restaurants. Good size room with ensuite shower room and a balcony. Very clean linen,towels and well presented furnishings. Fridge in room is an excellent addition for our drinks and snacks. Aircon is a welcome bonus. Hotel staff are really friendly and helpful. The pool is really clean and looked after in a nice private area at the side of the hotel with plenty of sun loungers and umbrellas around. There is car parking available which we utilised and was so thankful for as we walked everywhere with everything being so close by. Beach is about 15 mins walk away but worth the visit. There is a taxi boat from the pier to nessebar old town and back every 20mins. Buses are also close by to get around the area. There are supermarkets and local amenities near the hotel and everything ideally situated for a great stay. Will definitely recommend family hotel romantik and we look forward to returning and staying here again."
