About
Gardenia Apartments
Gardenia Apartments sits at 100 Ulitsa "Sofroniy Vrachanski" in Sofia, in the Sofia City Province. The property is a 4-star apart hotel that leans on practical comfort rather than fuss. Guest reviews consistently point to large rooms, well-equipped kitchens, and a location that puts the central railway and bus stations within a short walk.
Rooms range from studios to three-bedroom apartments, all with private bathrooms, heating, air conditioning, and balconies. The apartments come with tea and coffee facilities, a washing machine, and cookware, which makes longer stays straightforward. The public areas have Wi-Fi, and there is free parking in a secure garage, a detail that stands out in the centre of a capital city.

In brief
What works, what to weigh
+
Strengths
4 reasons to book- Large, self-contained rooms — Apartments come with kitchens (fridge, oven, stovetop, washing machine), seating areas, and balconies – a setup that suits longer stays.
- Excellent transport links — The property is a short walk from Sofia's central railway and bus stations, with a metro line close by. Guests also note a 15-minute drive to the airport.
- Free secure parking — On-site parking in a secure garage is included – a practical perk in a capital city where parking can be scarce.
- High guest ratings — With a 9.1 overall rating from 384 reviews, and category scores above 9 for rooms, service, and value, the property earns consistently positive feedback.
–
Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Mixed room service feedback — While many reviews praise the staff, some ratings fall below the property's average – the Service score (9.4) is strong, but a few guests noted what felt inconsistent.
- Not a central hotel — The property is near transport hubs and markets, but the National Palace of Culture is about 2.8 km away – so some city sights require a onward journey.
- No pets allowed — The policy is clear: animals are not permitted on site.
- Evening check-in only until midnight — Check-in runs from 15:00 to 23:59, so late-night arrivals after midnight need to plan ahead.
