Exchange Rate

Can anyone tell me what exchange rate they are getting or recently got in the Hotels in Borovets for Sterling cash?

Thanks.

Thanks Debbie, Going Places were offering 2.58 lev to £ today, plus commission. As previously posted by others it definitely seems better to change cash in the resort. I changed £20 today at home just to make sure I have enough Levs for the first beer. Booze

Just returned from Pamps, I got 2.68 from barclays before I went, once in resort the hotels were giving 2.50 and the bank 2.70. Ok if you get to the bank before it closes. Also I advise get small notes as they get a bit huffy if you give large notes. Anyway have a good time

Hey Bill,

I'm a bit shocked the pound loose a bit. The today rate from the bulgarian national bank is only 2,78 lev for 1 pound.
So you will get in Borovez 2,75 best to change in the Post Bank in Basement of Ela Hotel.
