We stayed at this hotel as a couple in early July. We chose a completely different hotel, but it turned out to be full and there was not much choice with our budget, so we ended up in Shipka, 3 * for a vacation. Organization of recreation at a high level, very attentive attitude to customers, constant support and care, round-the-clock communication.

We stayed at this hotel as a couple in early July. We chose a completely different hotel, but it turned out to be full and there was not much choice with our budget, so we ended up in Shipka, 3 * for a vacation. Organization of recreation at a high level, very attentive attitude to customers, constant support and care, round-the-clock communication. We flew perfectly, the transfer bus was already waiting for the hotel. Upon arrival, the first thing I liked was the hotel staff. Very friendly, open and sympathetic people, they helped us all the rest and solved all all questions. Our room was pretty good. From the furniture there were beds, a wardrobe, furniture on the balcony, a table, chairs. From equipment - TV, air conditioning, refrigerator. Bathroom with normal plumbing, there were no smells of strangers. Cleaning is average. Breakfast at the hotel is not very varied, but everything is fresh and tasty. There were eggs, slices of cheese and sausages, pastries with sweet fillings and a snack bar, vegetables, fruits, porridge, cereal, yogurt and more. The territory of the hotel is small, there is a clean pool, sunbeds. Close to the beach, loved it. Nearby there are many different shops, cafes, bars, restaurants and more. . Very tasty seafood and fish. We thoroughly enjoyed our holiday and had a great time. Thank you very much for the holiday. The hotel is suitable for budget travelers who understand what to expect from a 3* hotel.

We got to this hotel by accident - a couple of days before departure, another hotel unexpectedly canceled the reservation (for which I thank them very much, their accommodation was not next to Shipka). We chose Shipka from 3 options because Google Maps showed its placement on line 1, and the other two - on the 3rd.

We got to this hotel by accident - a couple of days before departure, another hotel unexpectedly canceled the reservation (for which I thank them very much, their accommodation was not next to Shipka). We chose Shipka from 3 options because Google Maps showed its placement on line 1,
and the other two - on the 3rd. In fact, it turned out that one of the rest is nearby, on the same line, lying Google Maps : ) But it doesn’t matter. We arrived at about 11.45, check-in from 14.00. But since the hotel was not particularly full and the rooms were ready, we were settled right away, we didn’t give anything to anyone, and didn’t ask anyone for anything. One of the best experiences is the staff. Very polite and helpful. Before the trip, we read negative reviews from Rashko-tourists - we were driving without much mood - in fact, this negative turned out to be an outright lie. The room is cleaned daily, the floor is also washed daily, soap-shampoo is reported, the garbage is taken out daily. Transfer organized perfectly - minute by minute, good new cars. We rested as a family, 7 people, 3 rooms - 901.902 and 903. The hotel is built at an angle, so even if there is no sea view from the window, then you can eat from the balcony. Breakfast buffet. What exactly was missing for me - meat. I don't eat pork and sausage, and there was no alternative. True - and I was not hungry, the breakfast is pretty decent, there were enough cuts, and sausages, and ham. The pastry was sweet, with salted cottage cheese and spinach. In short - a solid European breakfast. The location is excellent - the first line, between the hotel and the beach is pedestrian, near the Aldo hotel there is a large supermarket with a good selection and prices. There is a public transport stop near the hotel - out of 8 days we went to Nessebar for 5 evenings to wander and have dinner, there are a lot of good restaurants with local cuisine and excellent prices. By the way, the restaurant in Shipka itself is not bad. And across the road there is a restaurant of another hotel, where we often had lunch - the prices are slightly lower than in Shipka, a good choice, a lot of delicious desserts, good cuisine. There is a refrigerator in the room. Bottled water was 0.5, no extra charges. Refurbishment is fresh, just done. The furniture is new. Minus - in double rooms there are 2 beds that do not move tightly, there is a space between them. The hotel has mini golf which is played by a lot of people, especially in the afternoon when it's too hot on the beach. Actually paid, but for hotel guests it's free, just show the card and play as much as you like. Shower on the wall, drain in the center of the floor - but from a practical point of view, this is a very convenient option, given the fine sand from the beach. Someone considers this a negative factor, on the contrary, we took it as a convenience. There is a hair dryer in the bathroom and it works. Near the reception there is a children's playroom, there is also a small children's area near the golf course. The field itself is under large trees - there is always shade, the sun does not fry. There is no pool, but on line 1 it is not needed. For those who wish, it is possible to go to the pool located on the territory of the hotel, but belonging to the Condor hotel - 5 lev per person for the whole day. A huge plus, which is unusual for Bulgaria as a whole, is that the whole hotel and the surrounding area has full Wi-Fi coverage, high-speed Internet, free of charge, it pulls perfectly with any hotel load. In a word - this trio honestly draws on 4 *, we will be happy to stop there again.

There are few advantages - near the sea, Wi-Fi in the room, not bad rooms. The rest just sucks. There is no swimming pool, food is generally a disaster. In the morning there is simply NO (monotonous breakfast) - a buffet, and at dinner what they will give - no buffet! You sit at dinner for 30-40 minutes - you wait until they bring you what they have, and not what you want.

Rested family 4 people (2 adults and 2 children (7 years and 2 years)) 7 nights, from June 24 to July 1. The exterior of the hotel is good, corresponding to 3 *, clean small pool. This is where the pluses end. The room is not cleaned at all, there is one carpet on the floor, and another one on it, but both are terribly dirty.

Rested family 4 people (2 adults and 2 children (7 years and 2 years)) 7 nights, from June 24 to July 1. The exterior of the hotel is good, corresponding to 3 *, clean small pool. This is where the pluses end. The room is not cleaned at all, there is one carpet on the floor, and another one on it, but both are terribly dirty. For 6 days 1 time changed the bed and towels. By the way, the bedding and towels are more or less in fair condition, but obviously not new. We had to pay 24 leva (about 12 euros) for a damaged sheet (the child spilled the juice), so the prices there are no joke. The guys at the reception are adequate, but for some reason the girls are lost and do not know Russian well. It’s impossible to watch TV, because the channels are either local, you don’t understand the language, or Russian lies.
A lot of Germans rest in the hotel, especially young people who come in groups. Also, a sea of Russians, who proudly walk along the embankment in the evening, show everyone their T-shirts like "I was born in the USSR. "
The food is monotonous and not always tasty. There is no baby food other than muesli and oatmeal.
The sea and the beach are clean, but given the price of a chaise longue (8 lev - 4 euros) and an umbrella (8 lev - 4 euros), many vacationers sunbathe on their towels or bedspreads.
In general, the hotel corresponds to the price-quality criterion.

The hotel corresponds to 3 *. The building is decent and renovated. The room is small, with air conditioning, TV without Russian channels. After the claims, they gave a room on the 9th floor, with a sea view, this saved all the shortcomings. They feed badly. Just a decent dinner buffet. Lunch is very bad.

For lunch - soup, second, Coca Cola, ice cream. Towels are rarely changed after being reminded. Linen once every 2 weeks. From 7 pm to 12-30 at night constant live music in the restaurant, noisy. The staff is polite. They know the Russian language.

Rested in Shipka in September. The location of the hotel is good, on the 1st line, lucky with the number (like me) - a gorgeous view of the sea opens up. Bathroom is tiny. The food is disgusting, save money, do not spend money on food in Shipka, there are enough cafes and restaurants within walking distance.

The food is disgusting, save money, do not spend money on food in Shipka, there are enough cafes and restaurants within walking distance. Even coffee from a vending machine (60 stotinki with cream) is much tastier than the vodka that you pour in Shipka called "coffee". Be careful with money!! ! They steal (30 leva was stolen from my neighbor). At the very least, put money and documents in a lockable suitcase. At the hotel reception there is an exchanger (honest), the rate is normal. It turns out that in Bulgaria in early September it is already cold! Especially when the north wind was blowing. Take windbreakers and jumpers.

Hello good people. I want to say a few words about the rest in Shipka. Dear mothers, have pity on your children and never take a ticket to this hole. I'm not very picky, but it's just a kapets - all the bedding is in holes, the room was cleaned only after I shouted at the reception, the kitchen is just guarding, there is no pool of our own, since we swam in the pool of a neighboring condor.

If you want a budget vacation, then better take a condor, but be careful they are often given out as one hotel, and they are completely different and have different conditions for the same money. I rested June 10 to June 24.2013. The only plus, as everyone noticed, is the first line, but in Condor they are also practically the same building. Before the trip, I found very few reviews, so I didn’t know what kind of food, but now I want to warn everyone to go around this place sideways, this is a hostel of the USSR. I wish you all a good rest. Sincerely, Nadya Ukraine.

Rested in Bulgaria in the Shipka hotel! . The room has everything we needed, it's a refrigerator, a TV set, as far as a balcony ! ! The room was with a sea view, there are only 3 such rooms on the floor! Towels were changed every other day, toilet paper every day. We left 2 lions for the maid, so she still laid out towels for us in the form of butterflies, they didn’t use the safe, nothing was missing from the room .

Although without an air conditioner, the balcony saved it, it was even cool in the evenings. Only positive emotions remained about SHIPKA! ! Next time only there to our favorite room) We were fed normally, scrambled eggs, sausages, boiled eggs, buns, 3 types of sausage... eh . . I already miss Shipka... .
