Grand Arena Hotel

Hi My family and I are going to Bansko for 1 week on 15th March and staying at the Grand Arena. My kids are 5, 8 and 9, none of us have ever skiied before. Has anyone got any tips for us as beginners, and has anyone else ever stayed at this hotel, comments gratefully received.

Thanx

I presume you have booked kindergarten and ski classes for your children?

Feel free to drop me a line if you want further info etc.

Cheers
