Was there again last week.

I am Irish and along with other Irish people there, we considered everything to be cheap, even tThe Happy End.

However speaking to British people, they seemd to find the place expensive

Back on sunday. On the mountain- bottle of beer 5 to 6 lev or about £2.50. Pizza slice 5 lev. Kebab 7 lev. Hot dog 4 lev. Hot chocolate 5 lev. Coffee 4 lev. All good quality. All i tried but more choice up there. I thought it was cheap for a ski resort. Off the mountain shop around and it's still very cheap. Paid 1 lev 30 for half litre bottles of beer in 1 mahana. Go off the beaten track and it's cheap as hell. Starter main and drinks typically £10 to £15 per head but you can get cheaper. ...

Actually went to the happy end one night which i wouldn't normally. 5lev a pint of local beer so not so bad. Thought prices would have been up this year but a lot of places seem to have recognised that the credit crunch is hitting hard and they are competing for custom. Touts are still a bit annoying though. Overall the only problem is the exchange rate but prices in lev are much the same as last year.
