My partner and I had the most amazing time at Sophia Hotel. The breakfast was AMAZING!! The staff were EXCELLENT. They were so patient and helpful with us. Helped us to book tours, did a birthday room decor set up and were very responsive on WhatsApp whenever we messaged (no matter the time of the day). I would definitely recommend here to anyone. You would not be disappointed.

Nice staff, very nice room with huge deck that was next to roof top terrace and more importantly faced Adguana Square that made for loud techno msg until 2:00am The hotel roof top was fine and dint bother me but the loud speakers playing disco, techno music until the wee hours was a total drag. The staff did offer me an interior room the last night for sleeping which I appreciated. If you don’t mind a pulsating base late into the night you should be good to go.
