We like to split up vacations by a week in one country and another week in an adjoining country (or someplace that is relatively easy to get there...not a place that would take 5 days to get to the 2nd destination).
Also, would be in late Oct, early November.
Thanks!!!!

Hi
kymbakitty,
I do not think Sofia is the place to go on vacation.
In East Europe, with a Hilton Hotel, I would strongly recommend Prague, Budapest, Krakow(HGI) and Dubrovnik, but I am sure there are a few more which I can not remember now.
I have not stayed at the Hilton in either Krakow or Dubrovnik, but I understand the property in Croatia is very nice and there is a long thread about it.
Also IMO the Hilton Sofia is a bit tired. I visited for the 1st time in 2006 and I loved it, but now needs some renovation.
I like very much the Hilton in Warsaw but not the city. Hilton Moscow was also nice but unless you book with points or certificates, it is normally very expensive. Also getting the russian visa is a headache.
