Veliko Turnovo is one of the most beautiful cities in Europe. It has the second largest university in Bulgaria, which gives it a young, vibrant feeling. There is so much history to see.
Enjoy Veliko Turnovo -- we stayed there while getting our house finished in Arbanassi. We love the place.
Low Costel Hostel in Veliko Turnovo … We arrived in Veliko Turnovo on a cold Saturday afternoon in February, but after we'd seen the sparkling clean hostel, the stunning view, and of course Graham's friendly and welcoming smile, we felt warm and very welcome. We thought the lockers were very efficient, nice, and big. Something we loved was the individual reading lamps for every bed, excellent idea! The upstairs common area is something to see for yourself. We've never seen quite such a nice common room before and the view from it is surely stunning: a room with a view! Ask Graham about restaurants, he recommended us to one, we went there both evenings, it was the best!
Nomads Hostel in Veliko Turnovo … excellent hostel. the owners were perfect hosts and couldn't do enough for you.
great location with a fantastic view -- also open all year round unlike some other hostels in veliko. the breakfast here is also fantastic.
Hikers Hostel in Veliko Turnovo … I liked it very much here. It's more like you're staying in a friend's house than staying in a hostel. The woman who runs the place is really nice and helpful. They also get you from the bus or train station. Breakfast is extraordinarily good and a lot for the price, and everything's clean and nice. No better hostel in Veliko Tarnovo!!!
The Loft Hostel in Veliko Turnovo … kirsten and alexi (owners) are super friendly people, they both speak english and bulgarian. they showed me the town and took me to a few cool bars, showed the light show on the castle, as well as introducing me to the local raki! the hostel is a great location, beautiful view, clean and comfortable, also a very good price! i really cant say enough good things about it. great for anybody who wants to socialise, have fun, see a beautiful town, and meet some of the locals! recommended.
Hikers Hostel in Veliko Turnovo … I absolutely loved it -- ended up staying about two weeks (summer '06). Stayed in the 'noisy dorm' by the kitchen as sleep soundly but other rooms quieter. Staff are all wonderful in so many different ways. Breakfast was fine and location of hostel good (small cobbled hill though). Town itself is great with beautiful surroundings, hikes, and decent nightlife if you ask the locals. Could get too noisy for some but I, and others i met, rate it amongst the best hostels anywhere. Freshly picked grapes from overhead vines and mastika from the freezer -- priceless.
Nomads Hostel in Veliko Turnovo … The nicest hostel we stayed in on our two-week trip around Bulgaria. Free internet and a good range of music added to the experience. The view from the hostel balcony is lovely. The staff are very welcoming and friendly, and make amazing food. It was fairly quiet when we were there (only one or two other guests) but that made it all the more relaxing.
Hostel Mostel in Veliko Turnovo … This is a definite cut above the average backpacker hostel -- Assen and his family are eager to make you feel welcome far beyond the call of duty, and the beautiful traditional house is a pleasure to stay in. There a lots of little extras and efforts that show how much they put into making this an extra-special place, and plenty of space to relax in making this a really luxurious treat on the traveling trail. One of the best hostels in Eastern Europe!
Hikers Hostel in Veliko Turnovo … Awesome hostel. The facilities are fantastic, the staff become good friends, and the views are to die for. It's in a very convenient location for seeing the sights and there are good restaurants very close by. I can't recommend it highly enough.
Hikers Hostel in Veliko Turnovo … Hard to rate this hostel, because it's not finished yet. But it's in a great location--5 minutes from all the action. The view of the fortress from the balcony has to be one of the best in the town, and Ralitsa and Todor are super-nice hosts. When all the facilities are finally completed, this place is going to be amazing. As of now, it merely the best place to sleep in Veliko Tarnovo. Stay here.
Nomads Hostel in Veliko Turnovo … The Hostels was very clean and the guys are really nice and helpful people. As other people said the view was the best one as possible and the breakfast (I'm vegetarian) was delicious. Very recommended for a staying in V.T.
Hikers Hostel in Veliko Turnovo … The hostel has lovely views over to the fortress (but in winter it is very foggy so not much to be seen) and the staff are friendly. However, the hostel is not
good for winter because you must go outside to connect between the common room or kitchen and the dorms or the dorms and the toilet/shower. The rooms themselves are well heated though. The common room is for smokers and there is no ventilation so it's very smoky and smelly and extremely unpleasant for non-smokers, meaning you are confined to your dorm and makes it difficult to enjoy using the facilities. It's also very much a party hostel so is noisy and very difficult to sleep if that's what you want to do at night! There is one dorm room connected to the common room which suffers particularly badly. The showers are not terribly clean and are shared with the toilet so you can be in trouble if someone is showering! The kitchen isn't well equipped so only basic cooking is possible, and the breakfast is very simple and not…
Ross Hostel in Veliko Turnovo … I had an apartment with two beds, which was very clean, with a spacious living room. The owner, Mr. Rosse, was very attentive. It also had a splendid view of the town.
