Хотел-ресторант Шипка,връх Шипка, hotel in Shipka

Хотел-ресторант Шипка, връх Шипка features free bikes, garden, a terrace and restaurant in Prevala.

I was in the area to visit the Buzludzha Monument, and this hotel is right at the top of Shipka Pass, which means it was right at the start of one of the two roads up to the monument. I was there between seasons, and the proprietor basically opened up just for me, had a nice room waiting with a heater, and made me a lovely bowl of soup. Looks like this place would be super fun during trekking season, with a bar restaurant and game room, huge wood burning stove and pool table. Great off the beaten track experience, would stay here again in a heartbeat.

Peaceful place with a lovely garden. The host was very kind and gave us good tips for the rose valley. We would have loved to stay an extra night but (no wonder) was fully booked. Super recommend!

23 miles from Mall Galleria in Enina, Къща за гости Сърцето на долината /The Heart of the valley features accommodations with access to a hot tub and spa facilities.

The place is like in a fairy tale. I just can't imagine the hard work the owners did to make it so magical. It's got everything and beyond. You can spend whole day exploring all the nice spots for leisure. Everything is done with taste and care. You can even walk around the sunflower fields and enjoy the company of a family of wild hares :) Great job, guys!

    In the short period we stayed, we managed to see all the sights around the town. The responsive staff advises us on how to get around everything so that we don't waste our time and where they cook the most deliciously so that we don't go astray. Luckily for us, the place to eat turned out to be no more than 15 minutes from the hotel itself. The short walk between the hotel and the restaurant gives an opportunity to see a small part of the city, revealing part of its unique charm. On the negative side of things, I would be hard pressed to describe any. I would be lying to myself if I said we experienced any kind of inconvenience.

    Nice located, just near "Valley of the Thracian kings", you can visit the Thracian Thombs / tumulus that was excavated until now, you can visit the Roses Fields (if you are there in June / July) and the Roses oil museum in Kazanlak, do not forget to visit also the beautiful Shipka Orthodox Church. And of course, Buzludha and Socialis Torch monuments, also the Shipka Peek monument need to be visited!

    The Shipka Memorial Church is absolutely magnificent, and its golden domes can be seen from miles away. While you are there do go down to the crypt to see photos of it being built and of its inaugeration in 1902, and you can read about it in Bulgarian and English. It was started in 1855 and completed in 1902. You have a choice of three ways to get to it: 1. up about 160 stone steps. 2. up the road to the right of the steps that leads to a zigzag path to it. 3. drive up the steep cobbled road to the left of the steps to a parking area with souvenir shops and a fruit stall, then walk up a few steps to the church and a small restaurant and another souvenir shop.

    Very easy to find and very friendly staff who made us feel welcome. We had a view of the monastery with the golden domes… which was a short stroll from the hotel Truly spectacular. The food was lovely with and frequented by the locals. The village is a nice place for a quiet stroll full of flowers and bird song. It is a good base to visit the Thracian tombs of the kings which dot the valley and do not miss driving into the mountains to visit the monolith …. Unforgettable stay….😎

    The location was perfect for us to see everything we wanted during our stay. We visited the ethnographic village at Etar, the liberty memorial at Shipka Peak, four of the Thracian tombs/burial mounds and Kazanluk. The Shipka church, just a few minutes walk from the apartment, was a real highlight. There is a small car park with disabled bays at the church for anyone unable to climb the steps.

    Charming house near the centre of Shipka. Helpful and friendly owners, who were able to offer some useful advice. Fantastic outside cooking (BBQ) facilities and a beautiful garden in general. An easy drive to the Shipka battlefield/monument, for history buffs, and also for other activities, such as horse riding. Well-stocked shop a few metres walk away...

    The bed was the most comfortable bed I have ever slept in. Apart from that great thanks to the couple who run the hotel who couldn't have been more friendly and welcoming. The hotel itself looks very pretty, and outside was a beautiful garden with an amazing swimming pool. 10/10 recommend.

    I arrived quite late at the hotel and there were not any guest. The hosts were extremely welcoming even though we couldnt comunicate because if the language barrier. I got a better room for my needs and also she prepared a nice meal in the evening.
