The spa was great. However, you do need to know that the outside pool is seasonal. While we were there, the children's pool outside was working, though. You get all that is necessary in the spa (three pools, one pool inside, one children's pool outside, a big pool outside, a Roman bath, a sauna, a salt room, a steam bath, warm sunbeds, plus massages and pedicures but at an extra cost. The rest of the spa is free to use.). The breakfast is also very good. It's a buffet breakfast and anyone can find something to their liking. The tea they serve at breakfast is especially tasty. The location is nice and quiet, however, there isn't much in the vicinity and if you want to go to a nearby town or city, you do have to go with a car. However, it's much cleaner than being in an actual city, because you can take a breath of fresh air. The lack of a city nearby was a positive experience for us. It is a great hotel and it has a great location if you want to relax and rejuvinate. If you are looking for something to explore, Tsari Mali Grad (a cultural historical complex) is nearby, in the village of Belchin, and it's interesting to see for newcomers.

Aside from the onsite pool, there is a local park with a playground for children in front of the property and several little shops that sell basic foods, fruits and treats. We came during a heatwave and they offered to move us to another room with air conditioning for free.

    My family and I stayed in Borovets in early May, and even though the ski lift was out of service, we had a wonderful time. We explored several nature trails, like the scenic Beli Iskar path, which were perfect for family walks surrounded by stunning mountain views. The kids loved our horseback riding adventure through the Rila Mountains, and we easily spent a relaxing half-day at the hotel’s spa, unwinding in the pool and saunas. Borovets offered plenty of activities to keep us entertained, making it a great destination even outside ski season

    The hotel and facilities are on the whole excellent. Didn't have time to make use of the pool and spa or walk the lake. Strongly suggest eating dinner at the restaurant as food was delicious. If you are a light sleeper be prepared for the room's night lights to turn on randomly as it impacted my sleep. If it wasn't for that the hotel would have been rated excellent.

    Etropole is just an expected lovely surprise! The city itself is not too big but the surrounding are beautiful. We found an amazing track (called The echo of a bell ringing) to the St. Trinity monastery which was absolutely gorgeous. Nearby there is a waterfall and an amazing view to Stara Planina (the Balkan Mountains). For the adventure lovers, there is a horse riding arena on the outskirts of Etropole.

    Nice slopes. Expensive hotels close to the slopes. But you can stay at any hotel and come up to the slope by car, 10..15 BGN the parking fee. The Rila hotel is cool (the indoors pool) but you need to plan in advance the stay. Also, if you do not have kids try to plan your stay when schools are not in vacation in Romania and/or England.

    The town in INCREDIBLE but the local authorities have DESTROYED the town: the roads are HORRENDOUS! Not just the potholes all along the streets but THE WHOLE MAIN ROAD IS MISSING! There's only sand, gravel and DUST in the heart of the town! And we couldn't sit in any of the cafes or restaurants in the center: they were so dusty and looked so dirty! The mayor has totally failed and destroyed tourism here. Shame because the town is so special and so unique, we visited it many years ago... And the other shocking thing was THERE WAS NO BREAKFAST ANYWHERE IN THE CENTER: at 10am there was no food anywhere, everything was closed! Shame!

    The purpose of our trip was skiing in Borovets.

    The purpose of our trip was skiing in Borovets. Samokov was a good value alternative to Borovets as we had a rental car. The drive between the two is very easy 10-15 minutes. There is some nice traditional restaurants in Samokov and much better value than the restaurant in the Borovets resort. If you don't mind staying outside of Borovets this is a good option to save money. There are 3 big supermarkets next to eachother in Samokov, Lidl, T market and Billa so you can get everything you need if you are self catering.
