Hotel Mura Borovets

I was just wondering if anyone has stayed at the Mura in borovets?? Are there any local spa facilities and how close to the slopes/bars is it?

We arrive on sat can't wait! the snow looks excellent!!! Very Happy

Hi Gav!

Stayed at the Maura last year for a week. Very basic, but clean & warm. Doesn't offer the hotel facilities as say the Samokov but does have a cosy bar and the staff are really friendly. With regards to location it is described as central but is still a good 10mins walk to the slopes. Hope you enjoy your hols, your set for some great snow!!

Moura is an ok hotel to stay in wouldn't recommend the food but the Bar is excellent. Happy hour starts at 6pm and ends at 12am.

As for other facilities there is a smal night club downstairs but seemed empty whilst we were there at the end of January. There is a small games room there with some PC's for Internet access cost 3 lev for 1 hour.

Hotel is not too far from the slopes, Ski hire or gondola lift or from the shopping centre and also of course the bars and night clubs

Basic food. Clean and warm rooms. Friendly staff. 10 mins max to gondola. There is a pool table but it is not very good, use the ones in the Samakov hotel.

Have a good time

Stayed there the end of Jan and couldnt complain. The staff are friendly and its in an ideal location. The rooms are basic but then you'll only be wanting a bed and a bathroom as you'll be out all day.....and most of the night!!

Unlike others i found the food fine! I'm a really fussy eater but i didnt go hungry! Its bulgarian food so expect some bizarre combinations and your welcome plate of cabbage.......it will make sense when you're there!! Breakfast is cereal, toast (takes an age ...

Unlike others i found the food fine! I'm a really fussy eater but i didnt go hungry! Its bulgarian food so expect some bizarre combinations and your welcome plate of cabbage.......it will make sense when you're there!! Breakfast is cereal, toast (takes an age to do!) and cooked brekkie. Evening meals were salads, soup and then a choice of meat or veggie option. Its all help yourself so you can eat as little or as much as you want!

Its about a five minute walk to the slopes which is a good head clearer after all the two for one drinks! Very Happy
