13th March Borovets

We have'nt been to Bulgaria for 3 years, and have now booked for the 13th March. Does anyone know what the Flora in Borovets is like? Also what are the prices now?

Hi Howard,

We are a group of 5 also going on the 13th march we were in pamps last year and we found the prices good, a lot less than french resorts I've visited in the past, a lot of people are saying that prices are down this season?

Mandski.

I was paying 10lev for a can of strongbow last year Crying guess thats what you get for only drinking cider.

if you mean flroa apartments then they are ok. Basic, but clean and in a good location close to the gondola and center. prices for beers in Borovets vary from 2 lev (happy hours) to 7 lev but the average is 3-4 levs. that is for 500ml (a pint). as always prices vary alot from place to place so if it sounds pricey just go somewhere else

by the way I mean local beers or european branded beers that are brewed locally. imported things like strongbow or magners will be virtually the same price as UK (if not more) as they just don't have the economies of scale to import that stuff cheaply.

the hotel is attached to the apartments but I don't really know what standard the hotel is. It shares the pool and leisure facilities with the apartments if that is of interest to you
