I used to live in Veliko Tarnovo (VT) so I know it pretty well. Being they old capital of Bulgaria, it is steeped in history and is great place for tourists with an interest in Bulgarian history to come and explore.
The Yantra River meanders in a steep valley, through Veliko Tarnovo.
There are a plethora of hotels to stay at and many apartments to rent, along with numerous cafés, bars and restaurants.
The main street winds its way along the hillside and the total length is walkable in about 40 minutes. There are shops of all types and further out of the city, there are super stores - supermarkets, DIY stores and furniture stores.
Taxis are cheap, metered and widely available and can also take you to nearby villages and back.
The city is served a network of buses.
Veliko Tarnovo has a railway station, that connects with Gorna Oryavitsa (a main railway hub) the line runs between Ruse and Stara Zagora. There's also a once daily international train between Bucharest and Istanbul, stopping at Gorna Oryavitsa and Veliko Tarnovo.
There are museums, galleries, a beautiful park, even a visiting circus.
Tsaravets Fortress lies at one end of the city, at the top of a hill.

The free walking tour of the city is excellent.
The free walking tour of the city is excellent. We paid a premium price (50 euro) for a guide around the fortress, but are almost certain we could have found a competent guide for less. The fortress has a rich history, but know that what you see has been rebuilt based on what it might have looked like--there was no written record to know for sure.

My first time in this city since 2008. Very disappointed.
My first time in this city since 2008. Very disappointed. The city has become a tourist trap. No decent place to eat that's not overpriced and with a completely bored and "couldn't be bothered" attitude of the wait staff.
Tsarvets is an overpriced ruin - half of it is a construction site with junk and pipes rolling around waiting to trip people up. I can't believe one of the nation's greatest treasures is so run down. Compared to other smaller museums in Bulgaria, they have done ZERO effort to make it nice, tell a story, have exhibits that transport you into the magical time of the Bulgarian kingdoms. It's like walking around a junkyard parking lot. Very disappointing.
Everyone in the city is clearly just using their hotels and attractions as a cash cow. Doing the bare minimum, if at all. A waiter at one of the restaurants had the gall to ask my partner for a tip when he paid with a credit card. I guess the waiter assumed he was American (he's not) and used to tipping 20%. We didn't tip because the service is atrocious and the servers don't expect Bulgarians to tip. Very off putting.

Tequila bar Funky Monkey, Club Jack (mostly for students) - that was all that worked in October during the weekdays, but I really wanted to visit Piano Bar. The are some light and sound show on weekends. And I visited Tsarevets fortress twice, cause I like castles and ruins a lot.

A wonderful mix of old and new in this historical center of beautiful Bulgaria. Lively and also cool. And bulgarians are decent people. Great restaurants and atmosphere - top recommendation is Restaurant Shtastliveca in the center of the town. Great food and great service by waiters who even know how to serve a good wine. Excellent! Veliko Tarnovo was the capital of Bulgaria during the 2nd Bulgarian Empire 1185-1396. Approx 220 km from Sofia - same distance to Varna and the Bulgarian Rivieria and wonderful Varna at the Black Sea. Beautiful trip by car in a stunning nature.

Veliko Tarnovo is a nice town.
Veliko Tarnovo is a nice town. The tourist attractions lack English explanations. You can find Bulgarian and... German explanations! Tsaratvets Fortress for example. Fortunately, from time to time they play a recording with some facts and data. Not a good idea, because one cannot really pay attention to the explanations and admire the historic site at the same time.
I noticed the same situation in Balchik, at Queen Mary s Castle. Nothing to help the visitor understand what he sees. Pity!
A nice small hotel inside the hospital area, so quiet neighborhood. Easy to find and walking distance from touristic area. Nice equipped kitchen and very clean "hospital" like the rooms. Nice hot water, nice beds, good parking space. Very nice and helpful staff. You should visit Tsarevets Fortress and Gurko Street and especially the Artisan street (Samovodska Charshia). And Arbanasi village.
The hotel has amazing location. It's very close to every attractive location in the city. The staff is friendly and tries to do their best. The room view from room was great and the cleaning service was on point. The room is big, the bed is comfortable and the equipment fine. Bathroom was clean and big. It included a bathtub. Overall the stay was great but I had higher expectations.
The staff were very friendly and helpful. They gave me a guide map and advised on the best landmarks to visit. We also met some with some amazing people at the hostel. The location is very close to the Tsarevets fortress, mini Bulgaria and some stunning nature paths on the river. Would definitely visit the hostel again if we come to Veliko Turnovo!
The hotel is in a charming old building and the view was stupendous from our third floor room. Everyone on the staff was very nice and helpful. The breakfast was varied and plentiful. We also ate dinner at the hotel restaurant 2 nights and enjoyed some well prepared Bulgarian food and wine.
Internet, AC, shower, bed were all excellent. Parking on the street. Central location. Awesome view from the large balcony plus a swing. Lovely place, modern and comfortable. Some stairs are involved but that is normal for Bulgaria. The host was very kind when I can a little melodramatic.
Gurko Hotel is located on a popular street with traditional buildings, nice view from our room. The personal is friendly. Breakfast was tasty and sufficient (egs, fryits, ham, chees, vegetables, butter, jam, juice, coffee), you have where to choose
Our room was big and clean.
The location was pristine and in a very walkable distance from the entirety of Veliko Turnovo, not to mention and the view of Tsarevets was incredible from the hotel rooms. The staff was also very friendly (to us as Bulgarians) and made the entire stay extremely pleasant.
You'll get one of the best views in Veliko Tarnovo! The studio is located on the pitoresque and famous Gurko street and close to most of the main attractions. You have all the facilities you need and is also a good value for money accomodation. We'll come back for sure!
Cozy hotel, with wood details and a lovely view. Close to everything, offers private parking and the owner is a truly wonderful person. It was great talking to him and we have learned quite a lot about Bulgaria, its history, etc. Highly recommend this place.
The Hotel is situated in the Center of Veliko Turnovo and 5 minutes walking distance from every Major Sightseeing destination in the town. Staff was extremely nice and the rooms were clean and comfy with walls of natural elements as wood, brick and stone.
The hotel was very good, very clean, you can park in front of the hotel, there is no parking but still enough space. Breakfast was good, and room was very clean. Hotel is 10min walking distance from the old town, located in a very quiet area.
The most comfortable bed (foam) in Bulgaria! Super location, good wifi, good breakfast, limited parking in front, but we found a spot every day. We could watch our Netflix with an hdmi cable (bring one). Bathrobes were a nice touch!
Very good location, close to objectives, clean, staff very friendly, beatiful decorated lobby where you can enjoy PINKO caffeteria and a pleasant brake.
One thing is the hotel is closed in the night, only clients have access.
The best hotel in Bulgaria. Everything in there was perfect. The staff was kind and friendly. Very comfortable room and the bed was amazing. The bathroom had a modern design. The breakfast was fully and tasty. Amazing stay!
Excellent location and very helpful host! I really enjoyed my stay at the studio. It was so clean and comfortable. The outdoor balcony was an added bonus. Everything in the studio was tastefully decorated and well equipped.
I very nice and spacious room in the center of the city. As often in Bulgaria all you need is at walking distance and the Tourist Office is at some 100 meters.
