A couple of days ago, I asked those who had already returned this season to score various parts of their holiday.
We received 14 replies, from people who travelled to different resorts, at different times, and of course stayed in different hotels, so although the results will not be specific to anywhere in particular, at least it give you a general feel for the country and what those who have returned thought of their holiday in general.
Scores were out of 10.

Condidering what a diverse lot we are, I think those marks are superb and should warm the hearts of any first timers.
Hotel food was always going to be bottom as I think many expect too much from it and expect it to be more like home, which of course it is not. It is still very edible but vegitarians and vegans may find their choices a bit limited.
Snow conditions are improving all the time, so expect that score to increase when the next survey is conducted.
Holiday overall scored a massive 9/10 which again is proof that this country knows how to give you a great time and will reward your visit with the experience of a lifetime.
Can't say i am surprised, yet when i try to convince people to go to Bulgaria for their hols, i still get the 'why the f##k would i want to go there' look.
They really don't know what they are missing.
Have had the same when said I was going to Bulgaria - still means less people to take up the lifts Have skied most other places and fancied a change and has been great to hear such positive things about it.
I have'nt skied anywhere else before so i can't really compare it to other places in the skiing sense. But been to Sunny Beach 3 times and this will 2nd time to Borovets. Travelled for many years to many places and as Countries, People and having an whole round good time goes, Bulgaria is hard to beat.
