Bansko 7th Feb

Hi everyone,

Just wondered if anyone is going to Bansko on 7th Feb?

We are a group of three girls, flying from Bristol with Balkan Holidays, second time skiing for all of us...so if there is anyone who would like to give us some tips on the slopes, it would be much appreciated Very Happy

Looking forward to the apres ski, but no need for any tips on that haha... Booze

Have you been to Bansko before? Some of the reviews worry me, so i’ve decided to stop reading them...can’t stop looking at the weather forecast though, even if they are all different haha! Fingers ...

Where are you guys staying? We are staying in Mountain Residence 4 which is opposite the Kempinski Hotel, so it’s near to the gondola..haven't found any reviews on it, but i think it’s quite new so hopefully that's the reason why Smile

We will be staying in the katarino complex outside bansko but will be spending many a night in the happy end at the bottom of the gondola. will look out for 3 ladies on skis. Good news is it looks like they have had a major dump of snow last few days!!!!!!! cant wait to go now

Happy End at the bottom of the gondola at the end of the day always seems to be a popular spot for apres Booze or lion bar further down the road. look forward to bumping into everyone
