Wife, Daughter & I flying out to Boro from Manchester on the 2nd. Staying at the Hotel Bor for a change. Last year stayed at the Rila & then a bit of a gap before that - stayed at the Rila in '90 & '91 (when a large beer was 7p & "champagne" was 60p!!) Booze Booze
However, because I have read other posts - I CAN wait!

7p a pint sounds dangerous to me!.... No wonder your user name is Carnage!

I'm at the Rila this year. I've not stayed there before. Last time I stayed at the Lion which was excellent but a little far from the slopes.

Flying from Gatwick. Booze Booze Booze Booze Booze Booze Booze Booze

I am sure you will enjoy staying at the Rila Tortoisebob. Excellent location, but it can be a bit noisy at night if you are at the front of the hotel on the lower floors (take some ear plugs unless you are a sound sleeper).

The 7p a pint was hotel prices too. There were not many bars other than in the hotels in Borovets circa 1990. I was there as a young lad with 5 of my mates. We had a wild week (as young men do) & I spent a total of £15! One of our party managed to spend £45 - but only ...

Its my second time to borovets and last new year i loved it so much i had to book up again, i have been skiing several times before, but the atmosphere the people, and the bars done it for me last year!
