Lion Hotel Borovets

What you can say about it.
(how much time does it takes to get to the center of the resort and how.. bus or legs..)

re: Lion Hotel Borovets

Anyone staying at the Lion hotel from feb the 10th?

re: Lion Hotel Borovets

i will be there but on the 23rd. The hotel runs a bus service, only a couple of minutes in that. if you walk I would say 10-15 mins. It warms the muscles up before a day on the slopes!
Then it's down hill for you to roll back after a few beers in the evening...

Stayed there last year.Nice cosy hotel.A fair walk but mini bus always there so no need to walk.Has a nice feel to the place as its not massive like the Samakov and the Rila

re: Lion Hotel Borovets

We just got back from Borovets and the Hotel Lion yesterday. its about a 5-10 minute bus ride but you can be waiting around a bit, there suposed to be every 20mins at peak times but im not so sure. We found a nice walking route that took about 10 minutes and its a good alternative to the 10lev taxi ride once the bus stops at 6.00.
I'll warn you now the food at the hotel is horible every night it was either under cooked or cold. I'd stere clear of the chicken
