Borovets
Advantages: it's skiing! Disadvantages: not enough culture
Borovets is the second largest ski resort in Bulgaria, an area now open for investment and exploitation of its huge potential due to Bulgaria's recent joining of the European Union. However, beware fellow skiiers that you cannot use Euros, but Bulgarian Levs.
Now, the ski resort itself has several parts:
The Hotels
The food
The nightlife
The slopes/skiing
Facilities/equipment
The hotels:
There are a vast variety of hotels, which are within ... ...at fartherst, all of which can be reached by taxi or horse and cart(a nice traditional element, if slightly smelly). The hotels range from the imposing communist styled 'Samako' to the quaint little 2/3 star ones further away. The ones like the Samako have everything from a bar to a shooting range, whereas if all you want is a few drinks before a quiet night I would recommend one of the smaller ones. I cannot remember the name of the one I stayed ...

Our best bulgarian holiday yet.
Advantages: On the beach, Extensive grounds, Fantastic food. Disadvantages: could have better outside evening entertainment.
...but rather quiet.Then we found Sunny Beach and the difference is unbelievable. The first year we stayed at The Riu Helios, then The Sunny Dreams Apartments. Both of these are very good quality for money.but then the best ,The Majestic Hotel. Having seen this hotel being built we were eager to try it out and believe me we were not disappointed with what we found. The moment you see it from the beach you will think it would not look out of place in ... ...on, brilliant. The majestic is everything we wanted in a hotel, we have booked again for 2009 and are set to book again for 2010 for the World Cup. If you want a good holiday with an outstanding hotel then go to The Majestic in Sunny Beach and enjoy. ...

Great week in Bansko at Chalet Jora
Advantages: Great prices, good snow, fantastic chalet (Chalet Jora) Disadvantages: Some unfinished buildings near the gondola.
...Alps. There are plenty of runs for beginners and intermediates but only a couple of black runs. Jay showed us some great off piste areas though and there's always the park if you fancy doing some tricks. I'd definitely recommend Bansko and Chalet Jora for a great snow holiday. ...

Hotel pamporovo
Advantages: Clean and Tidy Disadvantages: Food
Just come back from Pamporovo and stayed at Hotel Pamporovo. Its a 5 star hotel which is a 3 star in UK. From the outside looks lovely, Our room was i mix up and only way to get a room we paid for was through the rep. When we told the reception they gave us a single for 2 people they said that's all they had left. We then told the rep and she got in changed a couple of days later. The rooms are nice and big and bathroom are nice. You get a TV in ... ...the bathroom you have a bath and a shower. (over bath).
There are 6 floors with 3 different lifts to use but also stairs if you wanted to use them. The food was horrible, First day was nice with always a choice of salad and soup, meat chips and vegatbles. The breakfast is horrible with a choice of beans which were like bullets, so hard you couldn't eat them, the bacon looked like it was just undercooked pieces of rectangle fat. The toast took 10-15 ...

Bulgaria - Sooner rather than Later
Advantages: cheap, interesting Disadvantages: terrible coffee
We decided to visit Bulgaria this year as it looked cheap, interesting culturally and likely to still be warm in October when we had to travel.Never having been to a Balkan country before it seemed like a good choice.
We decided to base ourselves on the Black Sea coast and found a nice spa hotel in Nessebar (prefering to stay somewhere away from the crowds in Sunny Beach) The Nessebar Palace Hotel is a Bulgarian 5 star hotel about a mile from the ... ...a super-king size bed, large bathroom,safe,mini-bar and balcony. However, after a couple of nights we had to ask to be moved because our room looked out over the road and was quite noisy. It was also north facing and did not benefit from the lovely sunshine in the afternoon.
The second room was much better,looking out over the pool and the sea which was always remarkably blue and twinkly.
This hotel has a spa centre,indoor and outdoor pools,shops,hairdresser, ...
