Pijama Hostel

I had the opportunity to stay overnight at Pijama Hostel, in the very center of Plovdiv. In addition to a great location, the hostel has a lot of amenities. First of all, in dormitories the beds have curtains, so you can have some privacy. For a few leva you can buy breakfasts, which are quite tasty. Clean, cheap and well-functioning wi-fi. What more could you want?

Hostel Central Station Plovdiv

If you are planning a transfer in Plovdiv and are looking for accommodation close to the railway station, then decide to stay at the Central Station Plovdiv Hostel. As you can easily guess, it was located inside the railway station. Thanks to this, you are practically 100% sure that you will not be late for the train. It is quite close to the center from there. The rooms are neat and the price is low.

Hotel Evmolpia

While in Plovdiv, I decided to stay two nights at Hotel Evmolpia. This is quite an exclusive facility, located in the heart of the city. It looks quite inconspicuous from the outside, but its interiors are really tastefully decorated. Surprisingly, the price was not outrageous (I paid less than €70 for a double room). A plus is that there is parking on site.

Hotel Alafrangite

I highly recommend staying overnight on the hill with the old town. Especially at the Alafrangite Hotel. A very atmospheric place where you can fully feel the atmosphere of Plovdiv. Beautifully decorated rooms and homemade, incredibly tasty breakfasts. I also recommend visiting the on-site restaurant, where delicious Bulgarian dishes are served. The hotel also has a closed, private parking lot.
