Hey Phil, i am going on 7th Feb and i am staying at the Mountain Residence 4, we have a studio room...Dave is right there are quite a few. Residence 4 is the one closest to the gondola..opposite side of the road to the Kempinski Hotel. I am going for a week, so i can report back on our stay once i return. I have also been trying to find reviews but to no avail, i think its because they are very new.
The food you described sounds fantastic.....I'm for some of that!! As for my daughter she is a fussy eater, although she does like chicken and beef - tho trying to get her to try it abroad is a different story!
I am not sure if St Johns Park and Hill are near each other or the same part of development. If I recall I saw St Johns Hill being built and it is at the upper end of Bansko - sort of up the hill at the highest part. I have seen apartments mentioned on various letting sites and they sound nice - and will have a bus to shuttle you to the gondola and perhaps into the old town. No personal experience of staying there though.
sorry about the delayed reply. 2lv to the £ was in resort. It was 2.14 when we arrived and it crept down to 2.02 dropping a bit each day, when we left it was 2.03 so hopefully on the rise again!
