re: Borovets Christmas 08
I'm confused as to what GALA dinner means also, can anyone shed some light please? Is it a dress up/make an effort type of affair or just ample food and come as you like. Am staying at the snejenka over the christmas week in 2008, can't wait.

Hi all. Stayed at Lion for Xmas 2 years ago, we had been warned meal might not be great but were pleasantly surprised. Tables were set out as "Guests from Crystal/Thomson" etc, set courses (not the usual buffet) and they were all quite good. Not a dress up affair, jeans were fine. All in all a good night!re: Borovets Christmas 08

Im in the resort all season Mel, normally stay in the iglika and its not a bad hotel, the superior rooms are very good the others a little cramp but fine for me.
Never stayed over at xmas but was there for last new year.
The new year Gala dinner ummmm well.

Loved the night food and drink was good and the after party even better.
Nothing to worry about.

hi we are going to borovets for xmas staying at the hotel ela can anyone tell me whats it like we are a party of 12 youngest is 16.Also best places to go etc.Does anyone know the hotel ela e mail address
re: Borovets Christmas 08
Hi Nick,Don't know what the hotel is like as i have a house down in the town so no need for hotels. If you are half board, i would suggest that you eat your meals at the Alpina, a little bar up at the top, opposite the flora complex or venture down into Samokov town. The restaurants in Samokov are about half the price of what you will pay up in Borovets and for the price of the taxi to town, you will have a better meal for about half the price !
