Borovets Ski School

Hi all
A few of us are coming to Borovets next Sat and were wondering what time the ski school is? Someone said 10am and someone else said 12 midday. Can some please let me know.
Thanks all

after the first day meet at ski collection. Normally between 8-10 when ever you get yourself organised. then after that you agree as a group with your instuctor what time to meet the next day. they are very flexible so it depends on the others in your group

Thanks for that
We are staying in the Samokov, any ideas on what thats like? I know that hotels out there are basic, aslong as they are clean and safe I don't mind x

yeah it's a good hotel for BG. Clean and safe in the main but maybe not up to british standards. Go with an open mind and you will have a great time.

Thanks Vicki
One more thing. what do people wear out in the night? Is it casual - jeans etc or smart?
Is it hard to walk from bar to bar in the snow, should we have boots or are normal shoes ok?
Thankyou so much x

very casual jeans and stuff footwear I would just go with trainers or your normal shoes. I would say with a grip but if it's icy (which it can be) it doesn't really make any difference.

Thanks Gemma
You've put my mind at rest as I'm the one who chose the hotel I don't want my mates to be disappointed.
Is it clean and safe?
Whats the nightclub like in the hotel?
Where are you from?
Questions, questions...
Thanks x
