Just back from Bansko

Just back and wanted to say thanks to everyone who helped with queries before we went.

Would definitely recommend the hotel and Bansko in general

It was my first time skiing so I have nothing to compare it to but I really enjoyed the whole trip. I knew it would be a busy period as we had to go during school holidays but once up the mountain there was no problems at all. For beginners like me there was plenty of slopes and I was able to try the harder ones as the week went on.

We ate out every night and did not have a bad meal. Stand out places were Banski Han were we had the chomlec and Zehtingieva House were we had the Pork Knuckle. I found the Morris Bar was great for cheap drinks and also had free wifi and pool table and then just down the road Amigos was good for live music and atmosphere.
