Hi, not sure why you are taking euros. You will be better off taking Sterling notes and just changing them - you will pay a commission here to buy Euros and they are very happy to take sterling. Just dont change money at the airport - rip off rates!! There is an FIB bank at the Pamporovo Palace next to Ski Station 1 which is open all day and they were giving 2.83 to the pound. Regards
