Got back from first time skiing on Saturday, already checked out prices for next year. We stayed in the finlandia this time which was excellent - only drawback being that it was a bit too far out. As my son was so eager to ski and too impatient to wait for the courtesy bus in the mornings he was walking to the ski centre, so we would like somewhere more central next year.

Got back from first time skiing on Saturday, already checked out prices for next year. We stayed in the finlandia this time which was excellent - only drawback being that it was a bit too far out. As my son was so eager to ski and too impatient to wait for the courtesy bus in the mornings he was walking to the ski centre, so we would like somewhere more central next year. Prices seem to have gone up a lot so was looking at the Rozhen which seems reasonable - but don't know what the facilities are like or food etc if anyone has any experiences can you let me know. Thanks
Sorry can't give you any info on hotel Rohzen as going to Pamps first time this Sun Staying in Hotel Finlandia. Could you give me any furthur info? Food, rooms, swimming pool etc. Also how far to walk to ski depot, we are going with Balkan so I think ski depot 1. How much in a taxi to centre. Sorry for all the questions but dying to know everythin!! Can't wait till we get there
I have stayed in the Rozhen on a number of occassions. Cross between a youth hostel and inner city slum! Just kidding.. It's not too bad but, heaing can be iffy and you are getting what you pay for. I would go for the Prespa next door which is much nicer for similar cash.
You'll love it, we had a brilliant holiday. The food was fine, always warm enough, contrary to other reports. There were several choices for main course at dinner and the soups in Bulgaria are wonderful - both my children had soup to start every meal and they don't even like it over here!!! The dessert was more limited but still a choice. Breakfast was good aswell with cereal, juice, toast, eggs, cakes, cold meats etc. The rooms in the Finlandia are as good as a four star hotel over here, we ...

The dessert was more limited but still a choice. Breakfast was good aswell with cereal, juice, toast, eggs, cakes, cold meats etc. The rooms in the Finlandia are as good as a four star hotel over here, we had a family room which consisted of a bedroom, lounge area with sofa bed a large bathroom with a bath that I stayed in for about an hour every evening and also a lobby area with wardrobe - so very spacious. I didn't actually make it to the swimming pool as I was too shattered after the skiing and preferred to lounge in the bath, but the children went in it most nights and said it was warm. It is about a twenty minute walk to the ski centre although it took my husband over an hour one evening with two wingeing twelve year old girls in tow as they missed the last ski bus and I had his wallet so he couldn't get a taxi!!!!! All in all one of the best holidays we've ever been on, if you have any more questions don't hesitate to ask.
Thanks for info Deb. Can't wait to go 4 more sleeps No doubt I will think of more questions before then! So keep your eyes on the board. Thanks a million
I agree with Daniel, Prespa is much nicer, but a pain to walk back to after a night out. If you book through this site, you will get a very favourable price!
We stayed in the Rozhen this year, would not do it again.
Room smelt of sewage, heating and hot water poor, food very poor/ none existent.
Do yourself a favour and book a differnt hotel. We've just booked the Finlandia for next year because of all the favourable reports, even though it is further out of town.
For all the info about the problems we had this year just search the discussion board. just put Rozhen in and search all dates.
