Guest Reviews

• kent (10/5): Great host! - The proprietor Milton was a superb host and would do anything to make us happy. Delicious breakfast, showing us the highlights of the city and very caring!
• Juan Manuel (10/5): Excelente - El anfitrión fue fantástico. No solo estuvo pendiente de todo sino que telefoneó para reservame un lugar en un minibus a Veliko Tarnovo. Si no hubiese reservado posiblemente habría perdido el transporte por falta de plazas. Prácticamente en el centro histórico y muy cerca de la parte nueva
• Nina Merete (10/5): Koselig vert - Koselig vert, som var flink til å vise oss hva vi burde se, og hvor vi skulle gå. Vi kunne også beholde rommet så lenge vi ønsket ved utsjekking. Litt dårlig utvalg til frokost.
• Shera-Lynn (10/5): - Wonderful stay with an incredible host! Very comfortable and clean. Fantastic breakfast! Can’t wait to come back.
• Michael (10/5): - The host, Mitko, went out of his way to accommodate me. He made sure I was parked in a good place right at the old town boundary. Mitko gave me a quick introduction to the lay of the land in Plovdiv, pointing out the best sights and restaurants. He also gave an orientation of the room. Breakfast was pretty much a customized individual order, an omelette on day one and french toast on day two. The room was very comfortable in early October with screened windows open and no need for AC. The second floor room received ample hot water after letting the water run for a minute. Couldn't have asked for a more pleasant stay in Plovdiv.
• Michael (2/5): - This hotel is unsafe. The owner requested that he be paid in cash for the full stay; however, ATMs in Bulgaria do not allow large enough withdrawals at one time to pay the full amount requested. When we did not pay immediately upon arrival because we did not have enough cash, the host, Mitko, locked my family into the hotel and called the police. This was frightening for the children and completely unnecessary since we had assured him that we would pay and he had our passports as security. This was a very serious breach of safety.
• Demitri (10/5): - The host was very nice. Very personable service catered to our needs. Exceptional breakfast!
• Eileen (8/5): The host worth the visit! - Best thing about stay was Mitko, our host. Excellent information about town and Bulgaria. Best we’ve encountered. Cooked special local breakfasts. Room simple with all you need and good bathroom. Bed firm and no decor but restaurant recommendations etc enhanced our trip. Well travelled interesting man.
• Gergana (10/5): - Very convenient location, comfortable room, very friendly host.
• Bruce (10/5): Accommodating stay - Our host was fascinating and informative, we enjoyed our time with him.
• Jonathan (10/5): Wonderful hotel with friendly owner - Wonderful small hotel with personalised service by the owner. Great location very comfortable
• Dianna (10/5): - Wonderful service and extra time by owner to make our stay exceptional.
• Juerg Walter (10/5): Wie beim alten Freund zu Besuch - Unsere Aufenthalt im Roots (Korni) Hotel was von Anfang an und bis zum Ende sehr entspannt und freidlich. Der besitzer Mitko hat uns wie alte Freunde empfangen - herzlich, zuvorkommend, hat sehr viele gute Tipps gegeben, uns sehr zufrieden alles in allem gemacht. Schönes frisch renoviertes sauberes Zimmer, grosse saubere Dusche, ruhig, sicher, einfach sehr sehr erholend.Am Rand von alten Stadt - sehr gut gelegen. Uns hat an gar nichts gefehlt. Immer wieder gerne!
• Andreas (10/5): Excellent stay in Plovdiv - Roots hotel is a clean and comfortable place to stay, just a stone throw away from Plovdiv historic centre. Rooms are clean and comfortable, but the owner Mitko is reason alone to book a room at this hotel. Mitko is the perfect host; - Does everything to ensure his guests are comfortable - Makes a great breakfast - Helps with parking - Great tips for destinations to see in Plovdiv, and Bulgaria in general. Also If you are in to wine, ask him for wine tips or to buy a bottle. He is a sommelier. He is also an interesting conversation partner. We had a wonderful stay.
• Javier (8/5): Amabilidad y buena localización - Gran acogimiento y ayuda por parte del encargado Mitko. Estupendo desayuno. Muy céntrico a poca distancia de todo.
• Anton (10/5): Fijn en prettig hotel in alle opzichten - + Oprecht vriendelijke en uiterst behulpzame gastheer + Heerlijk en toegesneden ontbijt met zeer lekkere koffie + Gunstige ligging t.o.v. het centrum + Comfortabele kamer en bed + Prijs/kwaliteit dik in orde - Oogt hier en daar een beetje gedateerd (met charme)
• Gunnar (10/5): - Close to the city center. Nice owner.
• Reni (10/5): Nice stay in Roots Hotel & Wine Bar - The owner Mitko is very kind person. He is sommelier with a wealth of knowledge about wines. I highly recommend visiting the hotel and ordering a wine tasting. Everything was fine, we had an amazing time.
• James (10/5): You won't find a better place to stay in Plovdiv - Wonderful little boutique hotel right at the edge of Old Town Plovdiv. Can't say enough about how friendly and helpful the owner is.
• Guy (8/5): - very friendly and helpfull owner
• Ingrid Kristine (10/5): Excellent - We selected this hotel based on feedback from previous customers, and stayed her for 2 nights. We were not disappointed. The location is perfect. Mitko, the host, was amazing and very helpful. Plovdiv is a beautiful city and Mitko gave us good advices and all help we needed. We can highly recommend this hotel.
• Scott (10/5): Great little hotel. - Hotel Roots was the best place I stayed during my tour of Bulgaria. Close to the historic centre, quiet, super clean and everything as it should be. The owner, Mitko, is super friendly and quite a character. Cooks up a mean omelette too. You can’t go wrong here. 10/10
• Magnus (10/5): Cozy hotell - excellent location, small cozy hotel, fantastic personal service. Knowledgeable and friendly owner who picked me up and drove me to the train
• Harri (10/5): 10 points for service - What a great experience - I selected this hotel based on feedback from previous customers and still the visit there exceeded my expectations. Mitko was an excellent host there and shared a lot of his time to plan my visit in Plovdiv. He served excellent breakfasts, recommended very good restaurants that met my expectations and highlighted points of interests. All I had to do was to follow the plan.
• Julianty (10/5): Must stay at Plovdiv! - One of our best experience in Romania! but not to forget, it's always the host that makes the difference. We love our stay at Roots hotel, it's definitely personalized. A lot of good recommendation and thank you for the omelette egg breakfast! Love every bit of this place.
• alan (10/5): In Plovdiv, This is the Place to Stay. - This is where you want to stay in Plovdiv. As other reviewers have mentioned, Mitko, the owner of this small modern hotel, goes above and beyond to make guests welcome. He has done a wonderful job with this new building that blends in perfectly with the area. Very comfortable in all respects. Plus he is a great chef. We had to stop him from preparing giant breakfasts every morning which he gladly does. We just couldn’t eat it all! Uses first class ingredients. The location is perfect. It is in the old city, but you can walk just a couple of minutes to an alternate route that takes you to the beautiful modern center in a less than 15 minute walk. Truly the best of both worlds. The Old City is beautiful. Many thanks to Mitko for being an amazing host. He knows Plovdiv and Bulgaria well. Final mention: he is a sommelier certified in Canada where he lived for many years. When he gives you advice about restaurants, listen to him. He knows his stuff. Plus, most importantly, he is a good person. He made our trip to Plovdiv a special treat.
• Dave (10/5): - The Roots Hotel & Wine Bar in Plovdiv was a great experience for us. Miko is a gracious host and made us feel like we were family. From the time he called us to ensure we knew how to get there to his welcoming attitude and helpful suggestions as to where to go and what to do during our 3 day stay. We went with the breakfast included option which was made fresh to order each morning. Lattes, homemade pastries and eggs made as you like were always a great start to our day. His restaurant and bar suggestions were spot on. The room was very clean and and had everything we needed. Would highly recommend to friends and family to stay here. Thanks for making our stay in Plovdiv memorable Miko!
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Mitko is an incredible host, a sommelier, and knowledgeable guide. He made our stay wonderful and comfortable. The place has everything you need. Highly recommend!
• Verified traveler (10/5): - The host Mitko is very generous and helpful, he gave accurate and good advices about things to visit and do in Plovdiv. Breakfast was cooked every morning by himself and was very good and tasty. The hotel itself was very clean and located less than 2 minutes walk of the old town entrance and around 5-10 minutes from Kapana district. I would recommend this place without hesitation.
• C. (10/5): - Service was excellent. Mitko went above and beyond what was expected. Location was good and the room was really clean.
• Mark (10/5): A gem in Plovdiv! - Mitko is super friendly, helpful, and an awesome cook, and the hotel is modern, clean & comfortable, and an easy walk to the old town. I recommend it highly!
• Kamen (10/5): Great little hotel in old town. - The best hotel in Plovdiv. We chose the place because of the good reviews. It exceeded our expectations. The owner I looks really well after all customers. Everything is tailored to your needs. The meals are superb. He surely knows his wines. We will be back in Plovdiv at least so we can stay in the same place again.
• Claes (10/5): Lite personligt hotell med fantastisk värd - Fantastisk värd som ger dig all tänkbar information om Plovdiv och Bulgarien. Dessutom serverar han en välsmakande och riklig frukost. Vill du ha middag? Inga problem. Han är en utmärkt kock
• Eric (10/5): Super spot! - We (2 American friends) stayed here last week and it was absolutely fabulous. Everything that previous reviews say about the owner is correct as he joined us for dinner and helped us understand the real Bulgaria. Previous reviews also didn’t mention that the location is excellent as it is on the edge of the old city and a short walk to the main walking street. We would stay here again in a heartbeat.
• Susan (10/5): Best. Host. Ever. - This one-man-show is a no frills, clean hotel in a fantastic location with an AMAZING host. Mitko made sure all our needs were not just met, but went out of his way to assure that we felt comfortable in his hotel and enjoyed the beautiful city where he grew up. A few examples: * I am a celiac and he learned new recipes, bought GF flour, and made special food to fit my diet each morning for breakfast * He not only gave us a map of the area but marked and described things to do in detail * He recommended yummy places to eat and drink that fit our budget * He kept the room sparkling clean and provided everything we needed * When we were about to leave, he suggested tourist sites to see along our way that would be of interest to us Highly recommended, especially for first-time visitors to Plovdiv.
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Extrem netter Service. Zimmer für 3 Sterne-Hotel gut eingerichtet und ABSOLUT sauber. Das Frühstück (Omelette) wurde frisch zubereitet. Insgesamt absolut empfehlenswert und sehr preiswert.
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Mitko was an excellent host advising on what to see and do in Plovdiv and helping us with onward travel.
• Alison (10/5): Friendly - Mitko is so lovely and took such good care of us. The room was large and comfy. Breakfast is custom made. His suggestions for restaurants and sights were spot on. Also in a great area.
• Edward (10/5): Mavrud - Our stay at Roots was fantastic. The location is perfect and our host Mitko was extremely helpful and informative. Mitko’s suggestions greatly enhanced our enjoyment of Plovdiv (he told us about a great wine bar when we expressed interest in wine), and he also helped us plan the next leg of our trip. Truly a great place to stay and I highly recommend Roots!
• Vanessa (10/5): Super nice place - Very nice an confortable place in the old city. The owner make you feel at home and give you a lot of help, city information and delicious breakfasts. Thanks for the yummy omelet!
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Everything overall about this was amazing. Mitko was of tremendous assistance the moment we got to the hotel property. Room was in excellent condition, location was spectacular, Mitko's homecooked breakfast was tailored exactly to each of our liking. Amazing stay and will definitely only consider staying here if I'm back in Plovdiv.
• Verified traveler (8/5): Great guest house next to the Old Town - Great guest house next to the Old Town. Very kind owner who provided me with wine and a lot of useful information. Will recommend to anyone who is visiting Plovdiv.
• TONG YI (10/5): Friendly host and efficient rooms - Mitko, the owner, was a friendly and fantastic host. He provided a personal touch to everything from check-in, suggesting places to visit, and made breakfast in the morning. My friends and I had a great stay at Roots Hotel, and we highly recommend this place to all travelers looking to spend time in Plovdiv.
• Anne (10/5): Quick Plovdiv trip - It was fantastic! We felt so welcomed and supported and our only regret was that we did not have longer to stay. Recommended most highly.
• Dennis (10/5): The Best! - Our host was an amazing gentlemen, who was absolutely accommodating to our every need and request. He personally made our breakfast each morning to order, We throughly enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend this small hotel. By the way, his WiFi was the best we have experienced anywhere in Europe.
• Verified traveler (10/5): More than perfect stay - This was a more than excellence stay honestly. The owner is very helpful at his best endeavour to whatever we need in problem encountered in town (i.e. taxi issues, bus issues, touring), providing useful and rational advice for your questions. He is a very caring person that even make a quick sandwiches for us and help calling a taxi at 6am to catch our early bus. The wine made by the owner is also excellent. Location is good, within old town and close to ancient theatre! If you drive / are with luggage suitcase, better take the paved road instead of through the cobbled road. Room comfortable and clean, with the perfectly caring owner, we would definitely stay here again for the next time in Plovdiv.
• Sally (10/5): A great little hotel in the old town. - We spent two great nights at Roots Hotel in Plovdiv. Mitko, the owner, was a terrific host and happily provided assistance and advice whenever requested (his English is perfect). The hotel is newly built, but in the old town. The location is fantastic and guests are able to walk to all points of interest. The room was a good size, very clean and comfortable. We would definitely stay there again!
• Charlie (10/5): - Hotel owner very accommodating and eager to assist you with any needs.
• Zvi (10/5): Root hotel Plovdiv - Mitko was very helpful and guided us finely in the old city of Plovdiv. His experince in wine and food was quite impessive. Also he left a good and reliable impession. The rooms were good maintained and we would definitely come back id we will be in Plovdiv again.
• Jimmy (10/5): Lovely quiet hotel with excellent staff - Easy walking distance to Old Town and other sights. Accessible by car. Great breakfast and service.
• dungbeetle (10/5): Hotel with a difference - This hotel defies categorization - sure, it's a modern, well equipped small hotel in the historic centre of Plovdiv - but the owner makes staying there an extraordinary experience. First of all, he's a sommelier with a wealth of knowledge and a passion for wine and he introduced me to the amazing wines of Bulgaria. Secondly, he has a first-class restaurant and , after my first night I decided - well, why would I go anywhere else? Lastly, coffee is very important to me and, his coffee in the morning may just be the best you've ever had
• Luis Fabiano (10/5): Brand new and cozy hotel.... - I have been to 49 countries and many hotels, but this one especifically kept my heart. The host (who is also the owner) is the most friendly business man I’ve ever met. Our stay at Mitko’s hotel was so nice, the hotel is brand new, the first night complementary wine, the Bulgarian breakfast, everything was perfect. We even learned more about Bulgaria with Mitko, we felt like his long time friends staying at his home instead guests at a common hotel. I’d most definetly stay back at Roots Hotel & Wine Bar if ever back in Plovdiv.
• Verified traveler (8/5): - Modern comfortable rooms with friendly staff and good food and wine
