Was in this hotel in November 2016 on a promotional tour. Stayed 2 nights. The hotel is located in a quiet, cozy place, two kilometers from the ski lift. We got to the resort center by bus, but you can also walk: 15-20 minutes on foot. The hotel rooms are in good condition, everything works properly. Meals are standard European))) - drinks for an additional fee.

The hotel is located in a secluded and quiet place. The room is clean and bright. We had a room with a balcony. The staff did frequent cleaning, his work is satisfied. The hotel has a lot of entertainment for children and adults. Yes, this is not 5 *, but nevertheless the level of service is decent

The hotel is located in the forest, near it there is no special infrastructure, no other hotels, no shops. But he himself is not bad enough. Very comfortable, lots of space in the rooms. Beautiful and most importantly comfortable furniture. I really liked the interior.

I didn’t really like the Lion 4 * hotel in Borovets. The resort of Borovets itself is a small ski village, quiet, not crowded, so it makes no sense to choose a hotel that is located far from the center. There is nothing around the hotel - it is located in the forest. Suitable for tourists who want complete privacy.

Hello everyone, in one word it's good and in two it's even better!

We are on such a winter holiday for the first time, but tourists with great experience. We love to travel a lot, modestly but tastefully. We prefer 4 star hotels. This hotel is wonderful! I liked the fact that after skiing you relax in the pool and sauna - you relieve physical stress and fatigue. The food is very good and varied.

I liked the fact that after skiing you relax in the pool and sauna - you relieve physical stress and fatigue. The food is very good and varied. The rooms are decent, spacious and furnished in good condition. Cleaning every day. In general, it's nice to stay here. We rested with friends who had already visited Bansko and they approved of Borovets. There are fewer people here and there are no long queues for the lifts. The routes are different and complex and simplified. And most importantly, beautiful nature! Skis were rented already near the ski lift, from the instructor VOLODIA. This is a great guy, he selects inventory, adjusts it to size, etc. And he makes concessions with the price. We recommend to have a rest in the winter in this city and in this hotel, you won't regret it.

The location of the hotel in the forest, nature is beauty! It snowed a lot from 6.01 to 10.01 and was still walking (personal transport was literally dug out from under the snow, having previously determined its location! ) A minibus was constantly running from the hotel (despite the snowfall), but for a delicious and hearty breakfast, it’s more useful to walk slowly to the center (lifts) for about 25 minutes, surrounded by snow-covered pines and lei! will satisfy any gourmet.

The only negative is the lack of coffee / tea / juice and other drinks for dinner (unlike breakfast, drink, at least get drunk! ) - for dinner, be kind, take money with you and pay for a drink! the hotel has a relaxing design of the premises, a cozy lobby bar with working fireplaces on the first and second floors), friendly staff, a sauna, a swimming pool, massage, a solarium... The room (double suite) is spacious, with a gorgeous view of the forest, The bathroom is excellent: hair dryer, bathtub, dryer, constant grief tea and water. Room cleaning is daily. Light in the corridors on photocells turns on when there is movement (very reasonable! ). Due to weather
conditions were interruptions
light, which were instantly eliminated due to electric energy generators! In general, I liked everything! I recommend it! Cozy, tasty, comfortable...

Just returned from Borovets, rested at the Lion Hotel. I will write my opinion. All pluses and minuses. 1. Location Plus - in the middle of a very beautiful forest with clean air and indescribable beauty. The minibus to the ski lifts runs frequently. You can walk on your own, it's not that far. Even nice. Minus - the minibus goes rarely during the day.

Just returned from Borovets, rested at the Lion Hotel. I will write my opinion. All pluses and minuses.
1. Location
Plus - in the middle of a very beautiful forest with clean air and indescribable beauty. The minibus to the ski lifts runs frequently. You can walk on your own, it's not that far. Even nice.
Minus - the minibus goes rarely during the day. Once we waited over half an hour. And if you go on excursions, it is not convenient to get there, since the collection takes place either at the Samokov hotel or at Rila.
2. Numbers.
Plus - quite comfortable rooms, there is a TV, a paid minibar, even blackout curtains. Good mattresses.
Minus - the room is closed by one flimsy door with a gap at the bottom, so when they walk along the corridor at 12 am, one in the morning, two in the morning - noisy foreigners - you wake up. It sounds like they're standing by your bed and yelling. The doors to the rooms close with noise. Therefore, sleeping normally is problematic. And the sound is terrible in general.
3. Food
Plus - the quantity and quality is normal.
Minus - the assortment, especially in the morning, is monotonous: eggs, scrambled eggs (overcooked), scrambled eggs with shells, bacon, sausages, sausage, cheese and cheese, butter and toast, sometimes boiled vegetables such as vegetable mixtures. From vegetables, tomatoes and cucumbers, from fruits, bananas, tangerines, oranges, apples are quite finely chopped. In the evening, the assortment is richer, but in the evening there are no drinks, not even tea, not even juice, nothing at all. Tea costs 3 leva, which is about 70 rubles for our money. That is, you still need to spend extra money for dinner. And since there are no kettles in the rooms, you still have to order drinks. Or bring a kettle or kettle with you. And you can't take anything out of the restaurant. Even fruits that I took but did not eat.
4. Contingent
There are few Russians, many Englishmen, there are also Bulgarians, also quite a lot. The English are annoying, noisy and behaving shamelessly. And at any time. When you sit in a bar, it seems that you are either sitting surrounded by Madame Storozhenko from Kataev’s story, who was yelling “Gobies, gobies!!! ”, or in the middle of a flock of crows and jackdaws that are yelling loudly. An hour later, your head starts to hurt from the decibel level. unexpectedly, one of them can yell very loudly, shouting over the rest, so sometimes you startle.
5. Level of service
They hardly speak Russian, but English is normal, this is understandable, because Borovets used to be an English resort. It seemed to me that they were not very accustomed to tipping. They pick up well.
6. Trips and excursions.
Pluses - there are various excursions: to Plovdiv, Sofia, Rila Monastery, Sapareva Banya. I advise you to go. But you can go to Sofia yourself. Get to Samokov (the city is 10 km), there is a minibus and then from the same bus station there is a bus to Sofia, every half an hour.
Minus - the guides do not speak Russian very well, some of them do not always understand anything at all.
In general, it can be described as normal. I wouldn't say it's very good, but it's ok.

Hello. A lot of good things can be said about this hotel. Location - super, beauty - indescribable, air, ate, mountain view. The hotel is very clean, there are no complaints about the staff at all, everyone is very kind. With the kitchen, they are also all right, given that we had two children and an adult who is on a diet, there were no problems.

Hello.

The hotel is very clean, there are no complaints about the staff at all, everyone is very kind. With the kitchen, they are also all right, given that we had two children and an adult who is on a diet, there were no problems. Everything was delicious. Ust and a bathhouse and a sauna, a gym, internet is available in all rooms, in general everything is super. The only drawback is that the pool is open until 20.00 which is not very convenient. They take 2 minibuses to the slides, they waited more than 10 minutes, very convenient. In general, who is going to go - you will not regret it. Last year there were icebergs - also not bad, but this one is much better.
Have a good holiday everyone!! !

A very nice hotel. Neat numbers. Normal food. There is a sauna. A minibus goes to the ski lifts (it takes almost 30 minutes to stomp on foot).
