The Sophia Palace is a lovely hotel just across the street from the Great Market Hall. We stayed in a deluxe double room. Spacious room, clean, modern and all the usual facilities you would expect ie safe, coffee and fridge. Gorgeous bathroom with a large walk-in shower. The hotel staff were all really friendly and helpful. Breakfast was downstairs below street level. A good selection of foods and drinks. It was quite a small area. There is a courtyard area where you can sit outside upstairs. The only downside is that there is no traditional bar, only a small pop up one at reception, and no sitting area indoors when you come back from a long day.

we stayed 3 nights 4 aduls (a familly) in 0ne room. we liked the location near the big market in vaci uca street, the well decorated and clean room, the praivecy in the hotel, the helpfull and kindly service from the staff, we took only one breakfast which nice and tasty. what didnt fits us was the fact that there was no separation at all between the people , the fact that the door of the bath and toilet room was transparent the metresses were too soft it was'nt comfourtable. also the television was not posibble to watch for the 2 persons that sleep on the sopha. I truelly recommend this sweet boutique hotel a especially for couples. the location is great and we loved the modern decorete and the helpfull and nice staff.

The hotel was really lovely and the staff were fantastic! Location was really good, everything easy to get to. The only thing that I didn’t like was that check in at 3pm is late when you have a very early flight and check out was early at 11 am when we didn’t fly until 10 pm. There was a bathroom to freshen up but a place to shower would have been really appreciated as it was an incredibly hot day with nowhere to shower before heading to the airport but this is genuinely the only thing I would have changed. We really enjoyed our stay here. Thank you to all the staff that went out of their way to make us feel welcome.

We absolutely loved the room and the location was perfect. Even the AC was wonderful. The only thing that we found was that the drapes didn’t completely cover the windows on the sides. Still, because we were up and out early with site seeing it was no biggie.
