As far as we are aware we are the only accommodation in Ruse that offers triple rooms, as we advertise that fact we have now been asked in if we have rooms to sleep 4 or even possibly 5, well the answer now is, yes we do.
The room below features 5 full sized beds.

Because of the demand for budget accommodation in Ruse we have now relocated our office, painted, and furnished our old office now giving us the extra space we need.
With very comfortable pine beds, bedside cabinets and TV this is a great, and quiet room to enjoy your stay in Ruse.

We now have an extra triple room, so the choice is yours, 1 person, 2 people, 3 people, 4 people and now 5 people possible in our bedrooms.
One final thing, we never put starngers together, so if you book a single room you have it.

Next to the hotel is a small landscaped area which will be partly
paved and have its own seating area allowing to to enjoy the warm summer evenings with a drink.
Fully booked the hotel can accommodate 24 people, and cots, high chairs will also be provided if and when necessary.
Further accommodation is being sought nearby thereby increasing our capacity.
Tea, Coffee and soft drinks are available as and when needed, and all rooms are fitted with cable TV
At busy times we will if necessary vacate the apartment thereby
creating extra accommodation for 4 people.
We have just converted the cellar room into another bedroom, specifically targetted at the many backpackers we have visit that require good clean accommodation. Being underground would be to some a slight inconvenience but for someone requiring just one nights rest it is an ideal safe and lovely place to stay. Prices will be cheaper than normal rooms and as can be seen by the photographs below it is ideally suitable for up to 2 people sharing.
The room is equipped with 2 beds, wardrobe and television.
The Guest house is the closest thing you will find to a hostel within Ruse.
Our prices are the same, but accommodation is better.
Our cheapest accommodation is is the Cellar room shown above, this sleeps 2 and has Tv etc, also is a great place to stay in hot summers being slightly below ground.
Walk along the danube. Baba Tonka street is the next right after the Johnnie Walker bar.
There are signposts showing directions both on the streets and the main square.
As you leave the train or bus station you will see before you the main street in Russe, Borisova street (борисова стрийт) Going down this street will bring you into the main pedestrian square. Finding the happy bar in the far left corner you will see the main courthouse approx where the statue of freedom points (Actually pointing towards
Moscow) But using her as a reference point for the courthouse is fine, we are 3 streets to the left of the courthouse (Baba Tonka street) which is accessed between 2 buildings marked as casinos, 150 metres down the street on the right is the English guest house, No 24 baba tonka street.
When you stand outside the Bus or train station behind you is the highest point in the Balkans the TV tower looking down the street with it directly behind you is the Statue of freedom, using these as markers its a straight line into the main square then follow the directions above.
If you have problems finding us please call and we will come to collect you.
