Bulgaria Ski discussion board

WOW

is all I can say what an amazing place Borovets is will definately be returning over the next few years

Weather was amazing think we had the best week would have been nice to have a fresh covering of snow though. Looking at the Web cam in Boro today looks like we just missed the snow.

Hotel Moura was ok comfy enough although their food was dire. The bar in the hotel was excellent happy hour on cocktails from 6pm till 12 fantastic and the bar staff Nick and Rosie were great.

Skiing was great too had a amazing instructor for our group "Demi". Also learnt the Bulgarian for Cheers that was used constently thorughout the week. If you get the chance through your Rep go to a traditional Bulgarian night where you end up getting smashed on Rakia (Bulgarian Brandy).

Night life excellent Buzz Bar a frequent haunt as well as the Shark Bar accross the road from the Moura does good food and also a full English Brekkie. The Nutter outside the Happy Duck was a bit annoying though.

So to everyone who is off to Boro have a great one we sure did.

Got back from Borovets on sunday and missing it already!

Stayed in the Hotel Mura - couldnt ask for a better location. I didnt find the food that bad, its bulgarian so expect some weird things thrown in - battered carrot which was surprisingly nice!! Two for one cocktails and shots are great. Had a great night in cocktails 101 - our group kind of took over the karaoke!!

Mike, i agree with you about the happy duck guy - effing and blinding isnt going to get me into the bar!

I take it you were the karate guys - well done for winning!

Just don't know where to start!!!!

Boro was just a great place to go from start to finish. Hotel Moura was fine, food was ok, bar was excellent.

We were lucky with the food throughout boro, including the local grub, all the places we went to served great food. The dodgy clown outside the happy duck freaked me out. I wanted to steal his hat but i was told he had a water pistol behind the front door. "Didn't understand some of the french lingo that he was using when he was trying to get people into the resturant".

Skiing was brill, coach was excellent. "Nice Wide Snow Plough Turns!!!!"

Spoke to a lot of people in Boro who were all friendly.

Plus we went to Sofia for sight seeing and also beat or friends from Bulgaria at Karate.

Hope to go back to Boro next year.
