Reviews for Interhotel Sandanski
Review 1:We were there in the first days of 2016 and the Hotel was full. It was very crowded for breakfast, but we don't blame the hotel - everybody wants to sleep longer and have breakfast in last 15 minutes. It is simply not possible in such a big hotel. Internet should be significantly improved.
Review 2:Friendly staff, excellent location, nice recreational facilities. Lots of families with children. This is the third time we are coming to this hotel in last 12 months, and will come back again.
Review 3:Being a long term client, should give me some privileges. Instead, i received hasle from the moment i checked in. The staff at the reception couldn't be more rude. Their attitude is so bad, ignorant, absolutely unprofessional and poor. I have booke my stay for 630 euros and over charged with an additional 135 euros for using the same facilities with nothing extra.
Review 4:I've been going to this hotel for more than two decades. I like the pools, the hotel in general.
Review 5:We were asked to pay the stay upon arrival, the check in took 10 minutes although we were the only guests, the language ability (English) of the receptionist was more than poor.
Review 6:Very nice and well maintained pool area--rich breakfast.
Review 7:We are coming to this hotel at leas 5-6 times a year for the last 5 years and and every time we check in we are asked if it is our first time in the hotel! The staff is totally ignorant and impolite. The rooms are very badly cleaned and the bad are never properly made.
Review 8:Perfect location, excellent hotel and very good facilities .
Review 9:they are not international friendly. On the reception none was speaking english; the same at the restaurant. Smiling and good manners are some aliens words. If u are lucky you can get a hot soup...if not.... Unless you are a greek, bulgarian or macedonian i do not recomendiu this hotel.
Review 10:The playground was nice, also spa facilities.
Review 11:Spa is very big but a lot of elderly people using it. Maid did not respect the "Please do not disturb" sign, and opened the door at midday without even knocking whilst we were in.
Review 12:Central location, convenient for walks in the park and shopping area. Nice view of town, modern rooms.
Review 13:Staff speaks broken english, staff shows little hotel experience at managerial level. A scotch comes, then water, then ice, then peanuts etc.. No manager in sight to attend. Old people wandering the lobby in robes looking for spa. A for effort, but a hotel with such history should have these things covered.
Review 14:Quiet, spacious, comfortable, parking, friendly staff willing to attend. Nothing will ruin your stay.
Review 15:poor poor, almost useless wifi, cleanliness of the room and the pool, to crowded and it looks like they miss enough staff
Review 16:In the middle of the town, quality breakfast
Review 17:The spa area where you find the two saunas and the two steam rooms were not kept as clean as it should be. Swimming pools were kept clean both outdoor and indoor. Only the spa cleanliness let it down.
Review 18:Location and facilities. Staff were good. Breakfast was excellent.
Review 19:Slithery floor near the spa water pool.Slipers given by the hotel make it more slithy bring your own slipers.
Review 20:Sandanski is a small green beatiful city and the hotel take a place in ceter of this city.Every think is on wallking distance from the otel.Internet connection is ok no parking problem.
Review 21:We liked the location, the food, the staff, the cleanliness of the hotel and the beauty of the surrounding scenery. This is our second visit and we feel it is a perfect getaway for a peaceful holiday. We shall return.
Review 22:Hotel needs refurbishment. Carpets in the corridors and in the room are dirty. Bathroom needs total renovation. House keeping reacted inadequate on my request to clean a spillage in the bathroom.
Review 23:The pools are excellent and clean. Staff is polite.
Review 24:The room was filthy and it smelled funny on the way in. The price (141lv for a double room, one night) doesn't corresspond to the quality of neither the services, nor the hotel room. I asked for a queen bed, they gave us two single beds-thanks! The entire hotel needs renovation, parking spots were scarce. Hotel staff-not helpful and not friendly at all.
Review 25:Would have liked tea making in room. Would have liked information about the area and possible trails and walks.
Review 26:Location and spa facilities, relaxed atmosphere even though its a big hotel. Food was good quality.
Review 27:Worn-out bathrobe, tasteless breakfast (more of offers), short working-time of swimming pools (I think, two hours more in evening)
Review 28:Comfort, cleanliness, facilities, location, kind staff
Review 29:Very dated, not very clean around the pool area changing rooms and toilets, dangerously slippery tiles around the pools and in general not worth the 4 star rating at all. Breakfast was awful, couldn't see food labels, no fresh orange juice but soft drinks from a machine, birds poo all over tables and chairs on the terrace as trays with leftover food were left uncollected for a long period of time and birds simply helped themselves. Would never stay there again!
Review 30:The staff at the breakfast restaurant is in need of a lot of customer service training. The guests had to source their own cutlery whist the 'waiters' were calmly observing. Very disappoining service. The coffee at breakfast was not great. The AC didn't work, after 3 visits of the maintenance guys who couldn't work out why, we find out that the unit was not switched on at all! So we switched it on and it worked!
Review 31:We liked the swimming pools and in particular the hot mineral water. The food at breakfast was good too.
Review 32:Закуската беше добра, но може би трябваше да разнообразяват . Всяка сутрин предлагаха едно и също меню.
Review 33:Отлично разположение на хотела, на една ръка разстояние от центъра( оживена улица с кафета , ресторанти и магазни и парка на града. Много любезен и отзивчив персонал. Много хубав спа комплекс и басейни. Отлична база за почивка както за възрастни, така и за семейства с деца. Нашето семейство е с три деца на възраст от една година до 16 години и за всички имаше ескри и развлечения.С удоволствие бихме се върнали в същия хотел.
Review 34:only after 4 nights without normal sleep they changed the room to less noisy (noise was only from 8 of morning till 8 of evening)
Review 35:the mineral waters in pool, park, breakfast, WIFI,
Review 36:Pools not so clean; Spa vary a lot from person who does...do not go to Emily...others are way better therapeutists.
Review 37:Hotel accomodation; reception; breakfast was great..very satisfied...try doughnuts, thermal pools was worth it.rooms are great.
Review 38:Mobilierul este un pic cam obosit, dar totuși foarte în regulă, nu se pot face, practic, reproșuri. Un foarte vag miros de vechi în cameră, care de alfel este curată și bine întreținută. Zona de spa nu este în realitate atât de generoasă precum este prezentată în fotografii; acestea nu sunt trucate dar sunt făcute fără doar și poate de un mare fotograf. Internet slăbuț, dar functional.
Review 39:Poziționare foarte bună. Ne-a plăcut foarte mult zgomotul făcut de râul de munte care trece prin fața hotelului și care se auzea foarte bine la etajul 4 unde am stat; hotelul este curat, personal amabil, este un hotel normal de 4* fără să exceleze. Demipensiunea o fost in regulă.
Review 40:The breakfast was made with veeery poor products. The ham was discusting.
Review 41:Amenities were in good condition. Swimming pool, room and outside pool were very confortable and clean. The greak restaurant inside hotel meet my expectation. High level food and staf service.
Review 42:Poor WiFi, Small issues with cleanliness .
Review 43:Quiet and comfort room, Kindly Staff, Security, Parking, Very good breakfast, Ideal position within the town.
Review 44:We were there with a baby and they gave us a room on the 1st floor where is the restaurant. It was a bit difficult to carry a baby and go to the room because there were stairs. The ventilation in the bathroom was not working well. Also, the last night there was a very loud music because of some conference that was taking place at the hotel which was quite disturbing - the staff should have considered the fact that we were with a baby and to give us a room on the upper floors so that we wouldn't hear the music.
Review 45:I've been in this hotel for the third time, previously in 2007 and 2008. They did a good job with the renovation of the hotel! Nice jacuzzi, nice children's area close to the swimming pool, excellent breakfast! The park nearby is great for families with children!
Review 46:- WiFi was weak most of the time
Review 47:- Perfect location - Nice pools and spa center - Fresh air and lot of parks nearby - Nice view - Relaxed atmosphere
Review 48:Air-conditioning is totally inefficient. Needs total renovation or otherwise room temperature during the summer will become unbearable.
Review 49:Swimming pool, outdor pool and spa are most valuable.
Review 50:My 5 y.o. boy got burnt in the outside hot pool. He got nearby the hot water tube and it burnt his leg. It was not serious - the next day was OK. They said that the pool is not supposed for kids but at the same time there were a lot of kids in the pool. The next day another kid got burnt even worse at exactly the same pool. It looked like they knew about the problem but persistently did nothing!
Review 51:Perfect location, nice food, clean rooms, nice view.
Review 52:All the dark net curtaining Imakes the hotel dark and dismal looking As there are lots of small steps so its difficult to see where your walking
Review 53:We arrived early and they eagerlly looked after our bags until check in time The porter was friendly and carried all the bags to the allocated room Nothing was a trouble
Review 54:The hotel has excellent location, right next to the city park and the main shopping street. The breakfast was delicious and the staff were all very friendly. The swimming pools were large and with mineral water.
Review 55:It was not mentioned that in the package there is Easter Lunch included, so many people did not know that!!! Besides, we have in a luxury suite on the 7th floor, and there was very bad odour from the bathroom. The price of 575 eur for 4 nights was not in line with the room!!!
Review 56:The location, SPA, pools
Review 57:We had a great stay and the only negative experience were the crowds at breakfast, which the hotel staff could not manage well. I would also recommend cleaning the area around the pool more often.
Review 58:Great location at the start of the excellent city park. Comfortable, clean and well furnished rooms (the de-luxe ones). Very good indoor and outdoor pools. Indoor pool size (25m) is both good for swimming and for kids.
Review 59:Terrible WiFi signal. Hotel was packed with families with kids so if you're looking for a peaceful hotel this would not be my first choice
Review 60:Great spa area, good breakfast, great location, nice room
Review 61:It is little bit expensive for Bulgarians and Macedonians but for foreigners it is a great value for the money.
Review 62:The mineral water,the fresh air,the room and the hygiene. The breakfast was Swedish table and was very nice.
Review 63:Service in Mediterranean restaurant, a lot of waiting, but food is good. Breakfast has no normal coffee, some products are not good quality
Review 64:Outside hot pool is wonderful
Review 65:The staff couldn't speak English and comunication was very difficult!!! Tavern at the ground floor very expensive and the food was disgusting, don't eat there!!!
Review 66:Nice comfort room, very clean, excellent spa, very good buffet breakfast and diner, external pool amazing! I 'll visit it again!!!
Review 67:This is a very old hotel (I used to stay here very often about 20 years ago) and it deffinately shows. The bathroom especially, as well as the indoor pool area. It has either not been renovated for a very long time or it has been done poorly. The spa area is also not among the best I've seen.
Review 68:The warm outdoor pools during the winter months are a rare treat. The location is also perfect.
Review 69:Long story short ,as i was coming to bulgaria at the border they refused my visa so they didnt let me cros the border ,after callin the hotel and chek if ther is any possibility of they could cancel my rezervation free of charge couse i didnt know they would refuse my visa .I called the hotel when speaking to the receptions she said that she will cancel the rezervation free of charge and that we had nothing to worry about but the next day my bank called and said that they have taken my money and was not ok ,the hotel might be great but this is not acceptable.
Review 70:The food during breakfast and in the Mediterranean restaurant was bad. The service in the restaurant was poor. Spa facilities were not with great quality.
Review 71:Location and room were great. Water in the pool was warm.
Review 72:Didn't realise the water wasn't restocked every day until we got back late from dinner out. Just adding more to the mini bar would have made life a fraction easier.
Review 73:The Maitre D', the swimming pool, ease of checking in and out, clean, safe, the spa, and the restaurant looked lovely but unfortunately we couldn't get in, so book ahead!
Review 74:The pools are good, though only one in the inside. Everything closes at 8 p.m, maybe they could up to 10 p.m for hotel guests, since everybody comes for the pools. The locatiob is perfect, if you love daily walks. The breakfast is not good, not much choice for non pork lovers.
Review 75:staff needs constant training - e.g. to greet customers, smile, etc; breakfast included a great variety of low-quality products ; plastic cups on breakfast; cold SPA areas ; no free space in restaurants of the hotel for hotel guests;
Review 76:Free wifi available ; location is perfect;
Review 77:That they kept my ID card at reception and when i forgot to request it, they did not return it at check out after paying. They had to mail it to me, which they did at my expense, but after i called them, they changed this. Do not leave your ID with them upon check in. ;)
Review 78:The pools were pretty big! The bedroom was large and cozy and the restaurant stuff were very friendly and did their best to ensure I had a great stay. Special thanks to Vanya and Todor Panayotov who did a great job making sure I had plenty of food! :)
Review 79:The hotel was full of guests. The swimming pool was crowded and the staff still was selling the access to swimming facilities for the people from outside .In addition the swimming courses for children were organised every day. I think that the guests of the hotel should have the proriority.
Review 80:Cleanliness and comfort.
Review 81:Slow internet, just one billiard table, one old game machine and one new, so no fun for kids.
Review 82:Large hot water pool with water springs indor and outdoor connected, plus smal pool with very hot water outside. Lot of SPA facililities. Kind personal.
Review 83:The space for the shower was very limited /70x70 cm/. It is not normal for a luxury double room.
Review 84:Everything was perfect. We felt very comfortably and enjoyed our stay.
Review 85:breakfast drinks - juice is actually low quality concentrate syrup dissolved with water of chemicals taste.
Review 86:big size of the rooms, big hot swimming pools inside and outside of approx.30 C, perfect hotel location at the end of the main walking street and beginning of park. Breakfast is good exepet juice drinks
Review 87:The rooms were very cold and they smelled like cigarettes.The bed,thepillows,and the quilt was bad.They didn't change our robes and theywere wet. We went 2 adults and 2 chi̇ldren(8 and 12 years old).WE Renteda deluxe sui̇te(2+2).but they took adult money for the 12 year old.wewi̇ll never go there agai̇n!
Review 88:We just liked the thermal pool.
Review 89:Non clear price (difference betwen Booking price and price in hotel). I must pay additionaly Dont exist some occupatiom program in hotel (spa and instructions for people who dont have expirience with this type of holliday before
Review 90:Location Exellent relaxation in the pools Good price in the city Correct staff
Review 91:Housekeeping did not change our bed sheets, replenish the mini-bar or change the glasses in the room not once during the whole of our 3-day stay (glasses were apparently rinsed in the bathroom once). There was ice on the walkways next to the outdoor SPA pool and hot tub, which no one took care of during our stay. Several people fell on the ice. The general swimming pool and SPA area are in need of constant (not once-a-day) cleaning.
Review 92:Very nice (simple) design and quality of rooms, very well heated, excellent food in the Mediterranean Restaurant, comfy bed, outdoor SPA pool with hot mineral spring water, next to a beautiful park, easy access to the picturesque surrounding region, with wonderful historic landmarks (Melnik town, Rozhen Monastery) and several excellent wineries within 30-45 min drive.
Review 93:-almost no one from the staff knew english -there were no q tips -bad matress in the bed -bad windows with gaps and the cold wind came inside the room -the employees were not so kind -the restaurant of the hotel didn't have nice food,portions were small,and the price was high. -the room service is expencive(compared to other hotels in Bulgary) with no variety of thinks.very,very bad club sandwitch
Review 94:+nice breakfast
Review 95:Only one duvet for a double bed. Could be better with a working surface desk.
Review 96:Great swimming pools, friendly and helpful staff, very good breakfast. Small but well equipped fitness. Outdoor warm mineral water pool open in winter time too.
Review 97:Was noisy in corridor as an extended family living in 4 adjoining rooms used the lobby in front of lifts on floor 6 as a living room/den.left all of their room doors open from early morning till late night, set up furniture in lobby to play cards and allowed the children to crawl/play in and around all rooms including ours and our friends and ..inline skating along the carpeted corridors etc. Was maybe not fault of family, they should have been made aware by hotel of the inconvenience to other hotel guests. We made them aware of it but maybe they had been promised an apartment and were adjusting. Our privacy was affected.
Review 98:Location, choice of breakfast, room, cleanliness
Review 99:front staff, especially very rude baggage holder man poor service during breakfast, overcrowded, no seating places, no cutlery etc. dirty thermal pool, especially in weekend
Review 100:variety of breakfast offer comfort of bed relaxing Sandanski environment
Review 101:The swimming pools need cleaning. The staff in the spa center not to the standards of the spa. The guest is not their priority but on the contrary you have the feeling as if you have interrupted them in something.
Review 102:Expencieve and poor welness. The massages doesnt takes as many minutes as suppose to, even the quality of massage was low.
Review 103:Location, walking distance to everywhere. Huge, never ending park on a side. Comfort rooms. Prices in a bar.
Review 104:So many clients in the dining room on the sanday morning that we can't find table for take a breakfast
Review 105:Location in the park aeria, very good swiming pools and good breakfast
Review 106:The jacuzzi is for home usage and its malfunctioned,some of the pipes are stucked.It cant fit more then 3-4 people at a time. The check in is no earlier than 2 p.m. that`s way too late.
Review 107:Everything alse is perfect.The pools are huge - olympic size perfect for sweaming and hydrotherapy
Review 108:Only instant coffee at breakfast, for a 4 star hotel it would have been good to have fresh brewed coffee. Hotel Mediteranean restaurant is overpriced. Much better food and prices in nearby restaurants outside.
Review 109:Very happy with the hotel. Everything was fantastic: very clean, no noise from other rooms, friendly staff, fast wifi everywhere, personal safe, etc.
Review 110:Hotel Staff (reception, spa, hotel bar) behavior, unpolite , knowledge of any other foreign langauage very poor. Staff do not smile at all and is not very cooperative.
Review 111:We really liked the location of the hotel at down town Sandanski, with wonderful parks all along Sandanski Food and spa conditions very good. Cleaning services and cleaning staff is the best we have met, very cooperative and helpful.
Review 112:Cleaners can do be better job. We found bugs in our beds. No signs when you entered in the town on the road to guide you to the hotel, no GPS address.
Review 113:Excellent time in the center of town. Next Time we are going together with our kids. November maybe if we have free time....
Review 114:Children allowed to chase round the restaurant during meal times, endangering themselves because of hot food and also endangering elderly people.
Review 115:Excellent location, beautiful scenery, peaceful and relaxing,
Review 116:Seriously undersized parking. Some guests that arrive late had to park their cars outside; we didn't find a spot in the parking but managed to find one near the reception. They could not handle properly the large number of guests that came for the buffet breakfast and dinner. Most of the trays were getting empty before the waiters managed to change them... The room, although clean, had some reminiscences (a large radio and the AC) of an 80's hotel ...
Review 117:Nice location. They do have a couple of swimming pools (one indoor and the other outdoor).
Review 118:The restorant for breakfast was dirty, espetially the tables on the terrace. People in the SPA centre is not enough professionals.
Review 119:Good location, comfortable rooms with a balkony a lot of spa procedures.
Review 120:All Bulgarian hotels are pretty substandard, frankly. This is not the worst of the bunch. The crowd at breakfast can be a real scrum.
Review 121:We had a deluxe suite up top and had an expansive deck on which to sunbathe. The hotel is very well located, the restaurant strip just steps away.
Review 122:I was expecting more from the luxury room.
Review 123:What can I say more, this was my third stay at the hotel. Just to repeat, everything was excellent, the swimming pools, Wi-Fi, parking, location...
Review 124:no taste brekfast (cheese, sausage, juice), and, when the hotel is full, facilities need more and often cleaning
Review 125:swimming pools, SPA, comfort, staff, location
Review 126:the colour scheme (brown and dirty looking beige) makes the place look gloomy and in need of a makeover; the staff needs a lot of training (they are often overly friendly without actually being helpful!); the food in the restaurant is worse than anything we had in various restaurants outside the hotel
Review 127:excellent location close to many restaurants and cafes in the town centre; excellent pools with mineral water; breakfast is good but could benefit from fruit juice and better variety and quality of hot drinks; the bathrooms were renovated and modern
Review 128:I ordered a carbonara from the room servise and they served me ,something like yellow soup with liguini,i gave them back, the waiter didnt knew english ,call the reception to translate and with a very rude way she close the phone and say dont bother me i am busy!!!! after 45 minutes a rude guy was talking greek came to my room with a carbonara in his hands and gave it to me with a very bad way... next time i will call the police and my lawyer because their behaviour is very bad!!!
Review 129:we had booked a luxury and a standard room and apart from the price there is not a big difference between both - I expected more from the luxury room as amenities but they were quite the same with the standard one
Review 130:excellent location near to town centre and restaurants recommended pool view thermal pool - indoor and outdoor pools
Review 131:Spa treatments were overrated and arguably more expensive than they should have been. Front desk service was questionable at best. The main restaurant was not very good. I would not recommend this for Western travelers.
Review 132:The SPA was not what i expected, it can be better/ el spa deja que desear
Review 133:Nice rooms and cleaned and comfortable/ habitaciones buenas limpias y comodas
Review 134:No good speaking English personnel. I would have been expected at least formal apologies from the management of the hotel for our problems in the middle of the night. It was however the hotel mistake that our AC gave it up in the middle of the night. Maybe they will contact us, there is still time.
Review 135:Nice location in the middle of the park, close to shops and restaurants, plenty of fresh air and place to stroll. Nice pools, very well taken care. Polite personnel, eager to help. We had a problem with the air conditioner in our room; it started to leak at 3 p.m. We phoned the reception and in 30 min a technician was in our room to solve the problem. At 4 p.m. we were back to sleep
Review 136:The overcrowded swimming pool was a problem.
Review 137:Good hotel, guarded parking, perfect location in the center of the city. Excellent breakfast.
Review 138:breakfast could be better and richer
Review 139:the perfect spa facilities!
Review 140:Nothing
Review 141:Spa facilities, dinner, location
