Booked for Bansko again

Already booked for Bansko in Jan 2011, staying in a suite in the Vihren Palace, 2 of us for a week £480 each half board including lift passes, flights and transfers, Inghams are offering 2 for 1 on lift passes in Bansko if you book early, only 10months to go, doh!! Have many other posters booked their trips for next season yet?.

re: Booked for Bansko again

Yep,
I thought so, stayed at the Vihren this year and loved it, would have been handy if i spoke Greek as a large number of greeks using the hotel, they do seem to be trying for more of the UK market now though. Short stroll back from end of ski road each evening, super location.
If Steve or yourself will be taking a trip over to Boro during the week of 22 Jan next year will probably have a couple of seats, will contact you nearer the time. Wont need the early bird though as the Vihren ...

re: Booked for Bansko again

No problem Don, we see the Vihren bus when we go up, good move on their part, perhaps other complexes will take a note and do the same...
The referance to the earlybird catches the worm was in relation to your deal, a real good one Very Happy
We will definately be running the Boro trip, conditions permitting.. Mad This season we have only taken over a few due to the poor conditions in Boro, but will admit when we did we really fell lucky with fantastic conditions and deserted slopes, even over ...

re: Booked for Bansko again

Nightmuffy,
Yes understood what you meant re the booking deal, we always book as soon as the earlybird brochure arrives, have stuck with the same tour op for last 5 years.
Used to stay at the Orphey, good hotel and friendly staff but a little to far from the gondola for us.
Hopefully the early season snow will be a little better in Borovets next season, would like to give it a try, would like to try Pamps too, but a long way from bansko for a day trip, maybee in the future will try to ...

re: Booked for Bansko again

Sky should be with us in 1 week but unfortunately she does have to go into 6 months quarantine which is a blow. Confused
