Bright House

I can’t imagine staying anyplace better when visiting Plovdiv. We were a family of four with a car, and the apartment-style room we had was spotlessly clean and met all of our needs (and beyond). After contacting Bright House in advance, one of the two parking spaces was reserved for us, which was very convenient. The Kapana district with many bars and restaurants is right across the street, and most of the sights in Plovdiv are all a short walk away. Also, our room had a great balcony that overlooked the old town. A truly wonderful stay!

We only had a few hours to explore the city center so we chose to stay at Bright House, which was the best decision. The location could not be better - in Kapana district with plenty of restaurants, a few minutes from the old town, mosque, pedestrian street and less than 10 minutes from the Roman Theatre. Our apartment was modern and had all the facilities we could have needed and Dimitar was helpful with each question we had.

Staff very friendly and welcoming, did not speak much English but our tour guide and Google translate filled in the gaps. Very comfortable clean apartment, comfortable bed, shower/toilet were a wet room which was a bit strange but the floor dried quickly. Location could not be beat - central for everything. It was nice to have the extra space compared to a hotel room. Pictures are very accurate so I don't need to add any more. The only issues we had were that as British tea drinkers we were disappointed to find that the apartment only had 3 small tea cups - we would have liked a couple of good-sized mugs please! Also, no English speaking channels on the TV - we don't expect a lot of English channels when travelling but it's nice to be able to keep up with the news for example. This is why I gave it 4 out of 5 - everything else was excellent.
