Quote/prices Rila 2012

Im looking to stay at the Rila in Boro from 10/3/12 to 17/3/12, two adults and two children aged 11 and 13.

Had afew quotes but any ideas as to where i might get the best price?

It has to be these dates due to flights already booked.

Andy,
In the past booked independently quite a few times. Stayed in the Rila twice but only with package deal.

In past years the Rila was very expensive to book just the hotel. We stayed in several other hotels in resort which were much nicer accomodation and alot cheaper.

I would recommend checking out other, more modern hotels. My fav is Ice Angels. The Flora is ok. Samakov similar to Rila, a bit dated. there are loads to choose from. Breza good for budget hotel!

If you want to ...

If you want to use the pool at the Rila its open to the public at a small charge.

Hope this helps

Dont stay in the Breza. Stayed there in Feb and it was shocking! Food inedible, rooms tiny and maid service worst I have ever come across> had to ask for our room to be cleaned!! Usually go to the Iglika palace, believe me it is a palace compared to the Breza...

Hi Andy,

The prices in the resorts are only just being released...in fact some of the hotels are not even releasing them yet. As you are coming towards the end of the season, you will be able to get a good deal. The best prices (if youy are doing it independently) are usually always direct through the hotel.

We live here so if you want us to pop in and ask for prices at any of the hotels, then send me an email and we can go up and ask around for you.

Also wait till later to book if going that late as you can get great deals the later the winter goes on. You will always get somewhere so no probs about accommodation. The Alpin have some great little Villa's at the back and are right next to the Rila drag in the tree's. I can send you a link if you want. We stayed there last week when visiting the bike park and can strongly reccommend them.

I also know people who will do you good deals on Apartments etc etc. You dont have to panic about ...
