Next years ski

Hi all

I have been to Bulgaria the last 3 years in the summer and we all as a family love everything about Bulgaria. The last 2 years family and friends have gone ski_ing to France there are about 25 of us at all different stages, some go down black runs some of us (me included) are real begginers and are mastering green runs only could you tell me the best bulgarian resort that would suit all of us, we know we will love Bulgaria but want everyone to enjoy it!
Thanks
Jan

Jan,
If you want only a 1 hour airport transfer and be able to stumble out of your accomodation onto ski lifts,gondola,restaurants and bars then borovets it is.

Pamps is very good allrounder resort. the runs are good for beginners and immediates. in my opinion the ski school is much more superior in pamps. In borovets we had 4 different instuctors in 1 week and on two days no instructor turned up.( and these wernt the days the gondolas were closed). None of the instructors taught us anything infact i would refer to them as mountain guides.I have always had good instruction at pamps
I have been to pamps 6 times and borovets once when i return ...

I have been to pamps 6 times and borovets once when i return next year i will go back to pamps.
the gondola to the top is also unreliable 2 days out of my 6 it was closed and there is no other way to the top,at least in pamps u have other lift options if one lift is closed.
the people in pamps i found much more friendlier.
there was more variety of pubs in borovets but how many pubs do u need to drink in

Bansko would be better for the advanced skiers and even then they may find it quiet tame, if you want something for everyone bansko has a lot better ski area than the other two but the night life is more low key, with 25 of you though you should be fine.

I would recommend Borovets it has everything for everyone. The black runs are amazing and they have lots of greens, blues and reds. Im a beginner but by the end of the week i was on blue runs and did a few red. Our instructor was amazing and we stayed at the samokov hotel which was a great hotel with so many facilites for everyone. The gondola was only a 3 minute walk away from the hotel.
