Hostel Old Plovdiv Reviews

Extremely nice staff. Great facilities. Location is central to nice restaurants and about 5-10 minute walk from "downtown"

my hearty thanks to Khristo and staff. everything was at the highest level, I really felt myself homely. I almost forgot about time passing sitting at the patio. good luck and all best wishes

This place is really something special. The old house has been restored with lots of love and the hostel is run by a very friendly married couple. The atmosphere of living in the old town in this hostel remains unmatched for my trip to Bulgaria.

Despite arriving on a cold, rainy day, I was instantly warmed by the personal greeting I got when I set foot in the Old Plovdiv Guesthouse - both from the owner and from a handchalked sign at the desk. The place itself was a fantastic, atmospheric 19th century home that made a perfect base to explore the the Old Town. One of the nicest places I have stayed in the Balkans, and hope to return someday!

This place was excellent. First, the owner is a great guy. When I was traveling to Plovdiv from another city 4 hours away, he came a picked me up and drove me to the guest house. On top of that, the train was about 40 min late (very typical for Bulgarian trains) and he stayed and waited for me. When I arrived I felt as if I was stepping back to the 1900s with the decoration style, it was really nice. My room was massive. I recommend this to place to anyone and I will stay here again.

Probably one of the best places I have ever visited, location, facilities and overall the staff were unbeatable, Would certainly recommend the place and come back whenever I have the chance, Keep doing such a good job Old Plovdiv!

I have stayed in a lot of hostels around the world but this is THE BEST one so far. I would definitely recommend it. The rooms were amazing, they were clean and the best part was the friendly staff.

Hostel Old Plovdiv is more like a classy bed and breakfast than a hostel! Each person receives a warm welcome when they arrive and the hospitality remains throughout the entire visit! When I arrived it was quite chilly out side and right after checking in, I was offered a cup of tea to help warm up! Later that evening when I went out, the staff offered an umbrella for me to use and recommended a nice place to eat supper! The beds are comfortable, the rooms warm, and the atmosphere is amazing!

I felt like I was staying in an expensive hotel rather than a hostel. This hostel is in a great location and the staff are very friendly and helpful. I didn't have to worry about a thing during my stay! Also, they have great showers and bathrooms...HOT WATER.

Amazing, atmospheric house ideally located in the old town's center. The owner and staff are really polite and helpful. Old Plovdiv Guesthouse represents excellent value for money and I strongly recommend it for the wondwrfull experience we had during our stay there.

I've had a great time at Hostel Old Plovdiv. The hostel is beautiful, clean and very comfortable, you have plenty of space, the staff is very welcoming and helpful and the location is perfect, right in the city center.

As soon as I enter there's a blackboard welcoming me (I think they put it in your mother language as well). I was immediately offered a cup of tea by Hristo, the owner/manager. There are plenty of hostels offering free tea, but few where the staff make it for you when you say you're thirst! The building is gorgeous and I had a 2 bed dorm for ten euro a night. The shower was enormous, breakfast was great, and all in all it was a wonderful stay. I wouldn't stay anywhere else in Plovdiv.

Everything was excellent apart from the instructions were given to find the hostel.

This "hostel" was beyond amazing. We had a hard time even referring to it as a hostel. The style of the place made us want to stay in and drink coffee or wine more than go out- which is not a way that I feel about most hostels. The owner was super nice and the staff were friendly and attentive. The breakfast was great, and I liked that they served breakfast rather than setting up a buffet- it was a nice touch. Every detail of the place added to the atmosphere in some way. The shower was AMAZING!

We stayed at Old Plodiv Hostel during Christmas vacation 2012 and we were absolutely amazed with everyhting!The staff was great, very polite, wiling to help you anytime and they had even prepared for us a welcome sign on the black board!!Old Plovdiv Hostel is a beautiful old building and so the atmosphere was amazing!Furthemore the toilets were brand new and very clean!This hostel is much better than any hotel in Plovdiv and we recommend it to everyone under any circumstances!

Hostel Old Plovdiv is amazing! It is like a 5 star boutique hotel but at an affordable local price. This place is great value for money and when you stay there it is like you are staying in a an old, stylish and traditional Bulgarian house. The staff are super nice and they always go the extra mile for their guests The location of the hostel is also very good as it is in the middle of the old Plovdiv town - a very beautiful and cultural place to be! I definitely recommend Hostel Old Plovdiv!

My stay at Hostel Old Plovdiv was very enjoyable. The staff were great, they really went out of their way to make my holiday as comfortable as possible. The location is fantastic; right in the middle of the Old Town. The hostel itself was very tidy and comfortable, the bathrooms were very big, modern, and spotlessly clean - and the antique furniture in the bedrooms and common areas add a lot of character. I would highly recommend this hostel to anyone travelling to Plovdiv.
