Bulgaria Ski discussion board

Hello all,

I noticed a few people have put requests down for info on the Breza but few responses as to how it is.
Does anyone have any reports from this year? Also does it have Board storage or are they happy for you to keep it in the room?
Finally anyone got any advice on locks for Boards - are they worth it good ones etc, this is my first year with my own board and I'm not sure if I can really adopt the leave it anywhere philosphy (on the slopes) of previous years!!!
Oh and it's my first time in Borovets after being to Pamps last 2 times any hints!!!

appreciate theres a few question in there but any responses gratefully received.

Cheers

I loved the breza got it on a last minute and paid £145 for christmas week, was expecting a right dump, actually got a lovely recently modernised hotel with a lovely relaxing bar its a really friendly hotel the bar is the meeting place for everyone after sking and I made loads of friends there... the rooms are quite small and not much room to put your clothes etc... but it was warm, clean and had a tv with world news, a movie channel in english and a few english music channels. the storage room is opposite reception and looked fine plus its 24 hour monitored as reception is 24/7 also sauna is brand new you have to book it and costs 7 lev they need about 10 minutes prior notice to get it warm.
food normal standard for Bulgaria - You will not starve. its ideally situated for either of the ski depots opposite is a bar I forget the name run by english people and beer is 1 lev 20 a pint any more questions?

Boy you know how to make someone feel bad --- I paid £400 for feb!
Seriously tho thanks for the quick reply. Im used to living out of my rucksack so the space isn't an issue.
Is there a safety deposit box in the room? or are they at reception.
Please tell the the sauna isn't clothing optional
1 lev 20 sounds amazing for beer.
Food sound like the norm for bulgaria, did you eat out at all? I think I spent half my holiday in the Barbeque restaurant in Pamps supplimenting the hotel offerings.

Oh and nightlife advise will be good!

Ta very much - hope you had a great time

are you going on your own, if so its a great hotel for meeting people... the rooms are boxy but cosy and I had enough room for all my stuff
the safe deposit boxes are on reception think I paid about 30 lev for the week, probably less cannot remember...
the sauna was strange if I booked it first it was up to me if I wanted anyone else to share it, I had no problem with other people coming in but was pleased when they were not naked, I do believe a few people did go naked!!!! but I am happy to say I was never in at those times...:} don't forget your flip flops....
I did eat out loads only ate in the restaurant once I thinki only because I have friends there who took me out most nights, we went to titanic, and Franko's I liked titanic they did this lush broccoli in like a garlic mayo sauce franco's was ok, but I was not too impressed with the pizza I had if you stick to the bulgarian food it was lovely.. also a little pizza place lower down from Breza on a corner forget the name you can sit in and eat or take away that was really nice...
nightlife was great, I went with thomson and did the bar crawl which went to most of the busy bars

Thanks again Gill.
I'm going with a friend but it's still always good to meet people its part of the holiday in my opinion.
Sauna sounds a bit strange! think it will be the first time I've been boarding and had to remember to pack flip flops....
Cheers for all the advice I'm glad Borovets has a similar feel to pamps I really like pamps and feel like I'm ditching a old friend not going there, though after last years ice and tarmac boarding i had to go for Borovets based on early dumps...
Looks like it will be good for you next week tho, hope you have a great time
