Europe / Bulgaria / Sofia
WikiSexGuide in Sofia.

Sofia Sex Guide advises where to find sex, working girls, prostitution, street hookers, brothels, red-light districts, sex shops, prostitutes, erotic massage parlors, strip clubs and escorts in Sofia, Bulgaria.

Sofia (София) is the capital of Bulgaria. It is also the biggest city in the country with about 1.4 million citizens (including suburbs).

Sex and Prostitution in Sofia

Prostitution is illegal in Bulgaria but tolerated. Bulgaria sexual attitudes are fairly liberal. Prostitution is rampant, especially in resort towns and seaports.

There are lots of beautiful and slim girls living in Sofia. Some of them are very open minded and ready to have a sexual relationship with a foreigner. Some girls are doing it in hope to get a wealthy husband but some might have sex just for fun. You can find lots of normal local Bulgarian sexy girls from the nightclubs or bars at weekends.

Sofia Female Escorts

Sofia doesn't have the best selection of independent female escorts comparing to some other cities in Europe. But definitely you can still find escorts from Sofia if you like East European girls.

Red Light Districts

Vitosha Boulevard, the main shopping street of Sofia

There is no official red-light district in Sofia as there are in some European cities. Street prostitutes are very rare at the Vitocha BLVD, but there are some sex clubs on this street and some independent escorts have flats on this boulevard and the surrounding areas.

The other unofficial red light district in Sofia is near Pliska Hotel and park areas near Lion's Bridge, or Lvov Most, also have unsavoury sorts hanging about and there's the occasional mugging, so be careful.

There are no window prostitution or any other flashy red lights on these areas. Only street whores and bordellos.

Prostitutes and Sex Workers

Prices for female escorts depend on the type of service and where you find them. Example if you find them from the bordellos or escort clubs, the price can be up to a 200BGL (100€), but if you do a little online research and find a girl you like the sex will cost around 100BGL (50€) per hour, but there are however some elite escorts who charge 1000BGL (500€) for overnight. The sex prices in the street can be as little as 25-30BGL (about 13-15 euros) for cheapest street freelancers (usually Gypsies woman) per act or per hour.

You should always use condom with a sex worker in Bulgaria because there are STD´s among the streetwalkers and high-end escorts.



Street Hookers

At the daytime, street level sex workers are only on the few areas, but at the night time girls are selling sex in few different areas of Sofia. In the weekends there can be whores all over the city, even in some areas not mentioned below! Simple and quick blowjob in a back alley or car costs 20 TO 50 BGL (10 to 25€) and sex costs around 50BGL (25€). Some girls will even offer sex for a lower price as there is so much competition.

WikiSexGuide spotted highway
prostitutes 50 km from Sofia way to Montana.

Here are places to find street walkers in Sofia:

  • As so often the area around the big hotels in Sofia is a playground of street prostitutes, like Sveta Nedelya Square in front of the luxurious Sheraton Sofia Hotel Balkan.
  • In the Happy Grill restaurant opposite the Sheraton there is also the possibility to order girls through one of the employees there.
  • The areas around Lion Hotel and Sun Hotel are often frequented by streetwalkers, usually Romanian girls.
  • Street action is also taking place along the big boulevard Maria Luisa and near Luvov Most (Lion Bridge).
  • The streets area at the back of the old Market Hall near Scotty’s hotel are also worth a try when looking for street action.
  • With your car you can pick up girls in Simeonovo street and on the highway near the Mladost district where often Romanian ladies try to grab your attention.
  • Plana Hotel, in the area around this three star hotel situated on Ivan Ivanov street 85 provides good opportunities to pick up ladies.
  • Hristo Botev boulevard, same street as where the Sin City nightclub used to be located. Sin City no longer exists. There are however two sex shops down close by that sell Poppers. Not a lot of action here anymore. There are plenty of cops waiting to arrest any hookers.
  • Park behind the National Art Gallery and the Aleksander Nevsky Cathedral; this area is sometimes frequented by working girls of different quality.
  • Highway from Sofia to Montana, about 50 km from Sofia you can find a Shell gas station (on the left side of the road when driving from Sofia to Montana) with a pit-stop place for the trucks. There are many working girls waiting for the clients. Some of the girls are very pretty and some are not. Prices for one good-looking girl were the following in May 2015: BJ 15 euros, full service (sex) 25 euros, but you might be able to negotiate it even cheaper. Some of the girls might be shemales so watch out.
  • There is a hotel towards the Central Rail Station, on Histov Botev with girls for 40Lev and room hire 10 Lev. Watch for Green Flashing Lights.

There are approximately 20 clubs for prostitution in Sophia, the first of which opened as a massage parlor in 1992. (Simeon Simeonov, Sophia Police directorate, "Bulgaria sex club urges lawmakers to legalize prostitution," EDT, 12 September 1997)

There are two type of gentlemen's clubs in Sofia:

a) The ones where you can watch girls stripping (nude bars) by paying an entrance fee and then they will sell other services by asking you to buy drinks for yourself and their hostesses and they will sell their 1-to-1 private and VIP rooms etc. The girls will always try to sell their drinks at a premium (30BGL to 150BGL)

b) The other type is, where you can pay a "table fee" (starts at 100BGL) and it comes with limited drinks included and girls do not strip like nude bars but they wear very revealing outfits and do party dance. Also you can pay them privately to have a dance which is usually less intimate than strip club private rooms. These types of clubs have strict policies around time and bouncers.

From both places you can almost always buy sex. Prices vary, but they start from 100BGL (50€), depending on the place. On an Average you expect to pay 200BGL depending on the girl. Nude bars mostly conceal their pricing (depending on the season) and can charge up to 500BGL (250€) for private VIP services including drinks.

The most well known strip clubs in Sofia are Erotic Ba (31 Cherny Vrah Blvd., 1421 g.k. Lozenets, Sofia) They provide some of Sofia’s best adult entertainment and dildo shows. Mens Paradise (19 Karnigradska Str, Sofia) is another great strip joint where you can enjoy toppless shows.

Peep Show Bar 1 & 2 are two small bars in Sofia where you can get a drink and watch one of several shows performed live in front of you. You can find these strip clubs from “Lavov Most” Square №7 and Tsar Osvoboditel Blvd. 33, Sofia.

Bar Kama Sutra has good striptease options. Entry is 5 LVL and lap dances start at 20 LVL with private shows costing 120-150 LVL. The Location is bul. Kniaz Aleksandar Dondukov 19, 1000 Sofia

Area around the Bus and Train Station, Maria Luiza Blvd, the Parks (around the Palace of Culture and Borisova) and the Lions' Bridge (Lavov Most), there are prostitutes (both female and transsexual) offering their services at night. Trannies in this area ask about 50BGL (25€) for sex services, but the price can be bargained lower. These type of t-girls are not very attractive and you should be extra careful in the area as most of them will steal your cellphone or wallet if they get a chance.

Some of the groups Man erotic Show in Sofia (show for women) are:

Sleeping and Girl Friendly Hotels

A good alternative to hotels is to rent a fair prized apartment.

Girl friendly Hotels

Usually the staff in hotels allows to bring girls for the night but it is very common that they require registration and not rarely an extra fee will added to your hotel bill.

  • In Shans 2 hotel at street Kiril i Metodii 96, near the central railway station, you can rent a room for short period and bring girls.
  • In the cheap prized Pliska Hotel you can order girls through the security staff.
  • Radisson SAS Grand Hotel is considered to be one the most girl friendly hotel.
  • Girl friendly is the three star Serdika Hotel, in the very centre of Sofia and close to the Alexander Nevski Cathedral.
  • Plana Hotel this 3 star hotel on Ivan Ivanov street 85 has the reputation of being tolerant towards bringing girls to your room.
  • Arena di Serdica, 5-star hotel on Budapeshta street 2-4, this luxurious upscale hotel with friendly staff has a very girl friendly reputation.
  • Holiday Inn Sofia, comfortable and coveniently located girl hotel on Alexandar Malinov Boulevard 111.

Stay Safe

If you have a car, you are recommended to park it in a paid guarded lot. Parking in the center is difficult; although you can find free spaces, the Bulgarian police tends to behave harshly towards foreign license plates. Even though the other cars appear to be parked legitimately, double check that there are no signs or pavement markings prohibiting it. If you drive out of the city (or enter the country by road) you must have a vignette (винетка) on every high-way. Buy it right away at the border (even though no one will tell you to and there may not be signs) or before leaving Sofia(rental car) from any fuel station. The price (2011) is 10 leva for one week - this is the shortest period available, also one-month and one-year vignettes are available. You must place it on the front window, in the bottom right corner. The fine, if you forget the vignette, is about 200 leva.

Car lights are also compulsory in the light part of the day all year long. Pedestrians should be careful since Bulgarian drivers do not yield right of way to those on foot.

Generally at night, you should avoid the area around the Bus and Train Station, Maria Luiza Blvd, the Parks (around the Palace of Culture and Borisova) and the Lions' Bridge (Lavov Most). This is especially true for single women and girls. Junkies get high there, prostitutes (both female and transsexual) offer their "services", some people might want to tempt you with touts of contraband (stolen, illegal, etc.) and/or then try to mug you. These areas are also frequented with the homeless and the drunk. If your hotel is in the area you'll be alright, just don't hang around it unnecessarily. Try to act like you are familiar with the area (and farmiliarize yourself during the day) and look like a local. As long as you avoid the poorly lit areas, the centre is okay, stick to the well-lit areas such as Vitoshka, the Largo, the Sheraton hotel, the Ivan Vazov theater and Voenniya Klub (Military Club). It is wise to choose a hotel/hostel in a better location, such as the ones listed above. Do not get into conflict with locals especially if they seem aggressive or drunk. Avoid football fan groups, they tend to be drunk and aggressive. Avoid wearing football shirts or scarves of the Sofia-based football teams, especially on match days.

On top of it all there are strong allegations of deep-rooted corruption in the Bulgarian justice system. Foreigners may find themselves in serious difficulty if they get into any legal trouble. There are many other reports of violence on foreigners in Sofia, although all of them were 'aggravated' cases such as a person trying to illegally buy documents or drugs. Be careful with taxis, make sure you check the prices first before you get in (the fare is per kilometer and it should be something like 0.79 during the day and 0.90 during the night, avoid cabs that display their fare as above 1.00), also make sure the cab has the driver's card on the front with his name. Also, be wary of money exchange shops. Some of them exchange money for generally lower rates than displayed on the exchange rate panel. Go to banks, otherwise you can easily become a victim and if you want your money back the security guard might intimidate you, rough you up or physically abuse you. One such change shop is on Maria Luiza as you walk towards the Lion's bridge (Лъвов мост) just after Halite (Халите) and Ekzarh Yosif street (you'll recognise it by the misspelling of currency, spelled 'currensy').
