I made several calls home from my hotel room (Orlovets in Pamporovo) - and was amazed how little I was charged. Although not itemised it would seem to be around 1 lev per minute. I was charged under 15 levs, and must have talked for the best part of 20 minutes.

re: ? Cheapest way to phone home

In Bansko last year (I know you said Borovets but they might have the same thing) there was a building with two phoneboxes in and a counter. You went in and used the phone, then when you were finished you went to the counter and paid, I was on the phone for about half an hour and the charge was next to nothing. I can't remember what the building was called but it was by the Pirin hotel.

I was in Pamps over New Year, £1.40 a min & 40p a text, It's £1.40 a min when people phone you too so best to leave your phone off. I drunkenly phoned a mate New Zealand on the 2nd, wasn't the cheapest phone call I've ever made!

Buy a pnone card from a shop or hotel reception either the blue or orange card depending on the phone you want to use. Cheapest way I know of for phoning home and when its done its done! To phone others in Bulgaria buy a couple of Bulgarian sim cards!
