Shipka IT Hotel, hotel in Shipka

Offering a seasonal outdoor pool, Shipka IT Hotel is set 500 metres from Shipka’s centre and several restaurants and shops. There is an infrared sauna as well as a steam bath on site.

Lovely large room - although some of the decor was older, it was all very clean and well presented. Good air conditioning system kept the room nice and warm. 2 doors separating the hotel corridor and the main bedroom, (bathroom and wardrobe in between) so it was beautifully quiet. Free parking on the road (the owners will assist to make sure you are parked safely). In the morning i was made a beautifully presented, abundant breakfast for only 10BGN additional, which set me up for my day. Both owners are friendly and want to ensure your stay is as comfortable as possible, and reminded me of staying with family. Ideal spot for my stop over to see buzludzha monument and shipka church.

    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.

    What did we like? To say EVERYTHING in capitals seems a little over the top but it’s true. We arrived after a hot and unpleasant train/taxi journey from Sofia and were greeted like family. The owners asked about dietary needs for breakfast, sorted out transport for the following day to Shipka Pass and the ‘UFO’ structure. Breakfast was delicious and home cooked. Authentic friendly Bulgarian hotel. If we are passing along the Valley of Roses we will detour to stay here. It’s that good!

    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 hotel is very well located, inside a forest, so the neighborhood is quiet and calm. Very close to Buzludha monument, a lot of forest trails to try, good breakfast, very good restaurant. The room was extremely clean, bathroom as well. Actually, I got a better room than I booked, with a balcony! :)

    Great hotel in a historic town in Bulgaria. Great size room and bathroom. Top notch hospitality at all hours of the day and night. Also, the ground floor had a pleasant surprise, a souvenir shop with authentic Bulgarian clay pots and other merchandise. We will definitely be back.

    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.
