re: Samokov-Borovets

Hi Brian and Sheryl,

I've stayed at both the Rila and Samokov and have to say there really isn't a huge differance between them.

Personally i prefer the Rila.. its position, breakfast better and restaurant not as dark! Pool warmer!

The beds were better in Samokov and the walls weren't quite as thin as the Rila! I did prefer the bar at Samokov too, but at the prices they charge how often do you drink there?

Hope this helps

Amanda

Stayed at the Samokov a few times now- allways found it ideal for close access to the Gondola.
Food ok- allways found something to eat- soups good!
Pool coolish like!- bowling alley and games roon,pool and machines upstairs- clean and best bit- Samokov ski school in basement- ideal!

No, trying to be funny actually. You know, having a laugh! Trying to lighten the mood on this forum which recently seems to be full of depressives! Nothing more, nothing less.

Hi Have stayed at the Samokov a few times, the food is ok, its very big but has reasonable facillities, the staff are friendly. The bedrooms are clean and comfortable, they look a little dated but thats more the decor than the quality (Brown and green). I am going again for New Year 09-10 so it must be ok. The posistion to the Gondola is the main reason we go back again.
