hi ive been to val thoren and val disere b4 but never bulgaria, thought i was taking a bit of a gamble cos dont know anyone whos been, going to borovets on new years eve. any one knows what its like compared to france in the way of bars, slpoes and lifts etc?.....
let me know.....

The locals are definately more friendly.The cost of enjoyment infinitely more inviting.
Lifts not as modern, nor slopes as extensive as Val d'isere, but if you never visit, you will always wonder.
Then again, it depends on the type of hotel and/or apres ski you're looking for.
However, I'm sure you will enjoy your New Year in Borovets.
All the best.

Oh, and there are lot's of bars and places to eat, drink, dance and make make merry......re: Whats it actually like?
The skiing is not worth comparing, especially with Val Thorens and Val d' Isere - these are exceptional resorts and compare with anything worldwide.

The locals are very friendly and the value for money aspect leaves France floundering in it's wake. The local dishes are comparable with some of the country style offerings in France, as is the red wine but at prices to die for.
If you come with an open mind, you'll have a great time - enjoy.
