Pounds Sterling is definitely the better thing to get your hands on though i don't know exactly how it would work out for you if you transferring from dollars to pounds and then to Levs, i don't know how many pounds you'd get for you dollars so it may make little or no difference at all, all i know is that it's a good exchange rate for sterling. I personally don't get it from the hotels, i have my own source in Pamporovo to change it at a better rate for me.
