Both foreign and local prospective buyers were interested in the hotel, the daily claimed. Gwyn-Jones refused to comment.

Contacted by Pari Daily, Fernando Gruenberg Stern, general manager of Radisson SAS Grand Hotel, said that such talks are commonplace and could not influence the quality of services, provided by the hotel.

The hotel features a large casino, one of the most popular Irish pubs in Sofia – Flannagans, a panorama restaurant at the top floor and a Lebanese restaurant.
