How about going the first week of February? Always a good time I have found.

I'd say the 9th if you have to go that early, better chabce for good snow coverage. We were there the week after that last season and it was fab. We stayed in Bansko hotel which was ok, clean, nice sized pool, friendly staff, food as you'd expect from a BG resort but this yr we are trying the Pirin.

have fun

Very Happy
