Borovets is a good town, comfortable trails for any level. The hotel is not bad located in a quiet place, the rooms are fresh, there is a swimming pool, the kitchen is the same as everywhere else. They position themselves as 4 stars, but in my opinion a maximum of 3. And there is a very big minus is the transfer from the hotel to the ski lifts (the actual distance to the pedestrian street is 2.600m. ) leaves the hotel only three times in the morning, the last time at 10 am, and back 15.30. 15.50. 16.10. which is very binding if you do not use a taxi (10 leva one way). The bus is physically not enough for all tourists. The driver will never stop if you are going in the same direction, even if it is empty. There were a couple of times that he simply ignored even the planned trips and had to take a taxi. To all the comments, the hotel administration said that they would figure it out, but the next day everything was as before. Sometimes they used the buses of neighboring hotels, but this is until the drivers understand that you live in another hotel, then they simply refuse to carry or again 10 leva. For some reason at the LION hotel which is located 1 km. closer to the ski lifts, the bus runs every 20 minutes. until 18.00 is very convenient. As for restaurants, there is one good place near the leftmost chair lift (blue express) called CRISTAL, the average table for 2 adults + 2 children with alcohol came out 55-65 leva, but the most important thing is that it is delicious. If you are traveling with small children, you can buy a sled for them, and then sell it back for half the price or rent it for the whole day (5 leva), but some cafes give them for free if you order something from them (coffee, wine). In general, we were satisfied next winter, we will definitely come, but not to this hotel.
