balkan holidays

I have used Balkan holidays for 11 years running now and have always gone to Pamps.Going Jan 28th and because of the lack of snow phoned them to see if i could get transfered to another Balken resort with better snow conditions.Was told by a unpleasant woman that Balkan do not offer this service and was to get a peice of paper on arrival and then take it up with my insurance company.

Hi Paul

Thats saved me a phone call then as I am going to pamps and staying at the pamporovo hotel from the 28th for a week. Its my 30th birthday on the 31st so if you are in that hotel find us and a drinking session might be on the cards. This is my second time skiing but first time abroad so if you know any good places to drink in pamps can you let me know please

cheers

Hi Al,
Well you are staying at a good hotel with a swimming pool and a Irish pub.Most people head for BJ,s bar in the Perelik hotel and the famous White Hart pub.I,m sure we will all still have a laugh.Still got a week to go so fingers crossed.

Yes they are rude at Balkan. This is my 2nd time with them (last yr no probs), they emblazened 'book early & save' over all their marketing, so that's what I did, only to find that in Sept/ Oct all their prices went down!! When I phoned to complain, the woman was really rude & basically said TOUGH LUCK - wow what great customer service.
