jeans, combats, walking boots or snow type foot wear. Although from the perelik you dont have to go outside as a tunel links you to almost all the bars so can wear most foot wear.

You can pay at the Malina to store your gear - 30 levs for the week. Otherwise you will need to take them back to your room each night which is a real pain as it's 2 miles by coach. No other safe storage facilities at the Perelik.
For all your snowboarding needs, advice, lessons or just chat - visit the Snow Shack and see Gary and Ted - great guys.

Just take casual gear to wear plus some shoes with a good grip.(trainers etc) Pack your board bag with clothes for extra board protection ...

Evenings are pretty casual, jeans are ideal, we packed loads of smart clothes & hardly used them! I packed some heels & never wore them (that's Nik, not Paul!). It's not as cold in the evenings as you expect it to be cos most of the hotels are interconnected-don't think I wore a jacket in the evenings at all! Don't know about storage at the Perelik but most hotels have somewhere for you to store your gear. Booze
