Hotel Astrea

Resort

Nice comfortable rooms, outdoor and indoor (mineral) swimming pool, sauna and steam bath, friendly and helpful staff at reception.

After Touring Bulgaria for a week, this is the first place I sleep that they have no interest in making themselves understood. They Do Not strive to inform you of the schedules of the pool, spa or any other facility and Do not even have a written English document to inform you of the operation of the hotel. I would definitely not recommend it.

On the internet this hotel looks great, do not make my mistake and stay here. We booked 4 nights and left after 2, would have left earlier but Hissar nearby was fool. Receptionist looked as if our booking was unknown and did her best not to acknowledge me or smile. Hotel has a small pool in the basement which is very good. The other outside pool in some photos belongs to the hotel next door who charge guests from Astrea. The astrea mentions various bars only the ground floor one is open. The hotel has Wi-Fi and air conditioning which work up to the 2nd floor, above that rooms are unbearably hot & no Wi-Fi. The room would embarrass Travelodge. Sorry Travelodge you are very good. The en-suite is poor, shower doors need to be lifted to close. One fun aspect is you can play lift music in the shower room. The air conditioning unit is loud but is in affective when sun is out 2nd floor and above. Great views of next doors car par. Breakfast was an experience on day one the hot trays were switched off, after cooking in the room, filling the shower room with water, enjoying the music, stone cold eggs and bacon brought on an involuntary gag reaction. So moved on to toast with some lovely cut comb honey sadly I used the butter which was rancid. No juice. Coffee was plentyful and good. Left after 2 nights and they charged 50% on next 2 days lost bookings. Pay a little more Hissar hotel is brilliant.
