How much spending money for Boro??

Leavin this sat for a week half board at rila hotel in boro...intend going out for a few drinks every night or most nights...would £200 spending money be enough for me? All advice most welcome-cheers!

Hi Clare,

I just got back from the Rila staying half board. I spent over £400 but that included equipment hire, some private lessons and a LOT of drinking every night. Also we ate out pretty much 2 or 3 times a day as the food in the Rila isn't great. I certainly think it could be done on a much tighter budget as that was all pretty much free spending without any worries about the cost.

Have a good un!

Thanx Carl...I have already paid for my equipment hire and lessons etc...so ya reckon £200 would see me thru? I'll prob do a lota drinkin too lol! is there a gym in the rila hotel?

re: How much spending money for Boro??

Yeah I reckon you could get by on £200 if you force yourself to eat at the hotel as much as possible and try and find the happy hours around the resort when you can.

There is a swimming pool & 2 jacuzzis which you can use for free, I think I heard reports of there being a gym there but that was the last thing on my mind to be honest!

Hi david

stayed in the rila in feb,i thought the food was ok,not as bad as i thought it would be.....and i`m very fussy.

avoid buying drinks on the mountain and the rila hotel that will save you a fortune. £200 should be ok....but i`d take around £250

re: How much spending money for Boro??

hi i dont think £200 will be ok if you want to have a good time lunch out plenty of drink at night we spent £500 for 2 of us and that was lunch a few drinks in the day we ate out a few nights and drank every night hope this helps take £300 xxx

re: How much spending money for Boro??

Cheers folks....advice was needed...will take £200 worth of Levs and my bank card. Hope the gym's not too bad in the Rila also tho! V excited now...can't wait!!
