Rested with my wife for the New Year in the hotel Katarino Spa (Bansko)
When choosing a hotel, I was guided by the reviews of tourists in
And no, those who have been there before. All true! Well done, thank you. Very decent hotel. Polite and correct staff. High-quality European food with a Bulgarian flavor (breakfast + dinner - buffet) After such a dinner, all local mechanics "rest".
The choice is really not big, but everything is delicious. I was pleased with the complex of baths (three steam rooms with wet steam and two saunas) and a decent swimming pool (there is even a small outdoor one, although the water is highly chlorinated in it). After a day of skiing on the mountain in the cold and wind, relaxes very well before dinner. Massages are so-so, for an additional 10levs in a bathrobe, you can feel something for the massage therapist.
It's nice that you can get to the ski lift and back during the day without any problems by hotel bus for free (runs at intervals of 20-25 minutes). The hotel is located 10 km away from the town, which is very pleasing with the absence of a resort crowd and clean mountain air. (about 900 m from sea level)
Highly recommend to those who are looking for just a good winter holiday (without fanaticism on skis and night parties in clubs)
When booking rooms, you should book the side opposite from the entrance to the hotel. The windows offer a magnificent view of the snow-capped mountains at the other end of the valley. Ideally, I recommend booking a room in a bungalow with two bedrooms, a living room with a kitchen and a fireplace, for the company of their two families.
A spoon of tar:
-on the lift in the morning, at the bottom of the mountain, the queues are not real (you need to stand for at least an hour, if you're lucky) they say that it is so, only for the New Year (maybe I don’t want to check somehow)
- the Bulgarians probably don’t skimp on the slopes for some reason, it snowed heavily for three days in a row - skiing, because of the dunes of loose snow mixed with areas of ice and crust, turned into a power simulator for the legs. This is already an individual amateur, especially if all this happens in a serious fog and a large number of skiers of different skill levels...
We came here just to ride for our own pleasure, and not to tempt fate and look for a limit to our physical capabilities.
Unfortunately, despite the available interesting slopes and good infrastructure with ski rentals, ski lifts and normal fast food establishments on the mountain and its surroundings, this circumstance has left a very big negative for the entire resort in our eyes.
