I was in boro aout a year ago and i found the prices very good it was really cheap for beer,food,vodka and fags the essionatialsre: Borovets, watch your prices
Bet this doesn't make good reading to all the brits that bought cheap apartments in Boro looking for a good rental return. Greedy Bulgarian bar owners should remember that we have to fly over the Alps to get to bulgaria and the Skiing sure looks good down there and an hour and a half shorter for traveling. Rip people off and they wont come back, its human nature.(unless your a bit stupid).

Just back from Borovets and the prices are now ridiculously high for most bars and restaurants.
As many Bulgarians have said, the operators have got mighty greedy just because they have entered the EU. Their costs have not gone up, their rent only up by 2% but prices have gone up by at least 150% since September 2007.
Most main courses are now between £8 and £12 and thats the basics without chips, vegetables etc..thats all extra.
We went off to Samakov town ...

We went off to Samakov town on 2 occasions to a restaurant where we had 1st class food, where a main course cost about £3.. a pint of beer 50p and a double vodka 38p !!! Of course we got stuffed and very very drunk Speaking with people there, they also confirmed that the operators of Borovets decided ,amongst themselves, to hike the prices because "the British can afford it".
One Bulgarian person's theory..."Prices will go up each year until the tourist wont bother coming..then the property prices will drop and the Government will buy up all the resort then (in time for Super Borovets) open up again, realistic prices and start to make money"
Hmm...they could be right !

Hey guys!
Just back from Boro last night and we had a fab time between the injured knee and illness hehe.
Didn't find prices that bad and the lessons were good too! Found that Sunny's and Eagels Rock were good places to eat although we felt more at home in Sunny's, massage in the samokov hotel was great was dead relaxed afterwards. Had loads of fun on the skidoo adventure and bought bum boards and went down the slopes infront of Hotel Rila great great fun!
Anyone who's going have ...
