I've been to Varna twice now in 06 and enjoyed it immensely both times. From the airport it is about a 10-15 min ride so be careful not to get over charged it should cost no more than £10 but as I found out some taxi men don't seem interested in taking you for that amount, and quickly move on to their next victim. I was really lucky to find a taxi man called mikael who brought me to Varna free of charge and gave me his mobile no. in return for me using him for the rest of my stay .(I can give you his no. if you like). For the first few nights I stayed in the Black sea hotel (cherne more hotel) when I checked in I was told there were no singles rooms left and I had to pay for a double room.This cost about £30 which I thought was ok untill I saw it!, to be honest the room looked like a bomb had hit it but i was just happy to get my head down. The next day I met an english speaking Bulgarian and she told me that the hotel had plenty of single rooms and were ripping me off so I quickly checked out. Then with her help she looked through the local papers and found me an appartment to rent for about £12 a day which was great, for which I only had to share a shower area. If you have time I would advise this as it is much cheaper but beware there are alot of really run down places. Being in the centre of Varna is great,apart from the amount of Bulgarians on the street pestering you to exchange currency with them. The beach is 5 minutes away which has restaurants serving excellent meals and drinks at very modest prices on it. Also further along the beach were the nightclubs which all overlook the sea with breathtaking views. The clubs play mostly dance and folk music with sunday's generally being r n b and hip hop night. There were also lots of shops with plenty of fake watches and handbags which were surprisingly good quality. The weather was superb and I was treated to a heatwave in May of 30 degrees plus! . I really reccomend going as there are lots of beautiful places to visit, the food is very good, and the people are very friendly.
