re: bansko

Bansko will be good for intermediates.
Can't say what hotels are like as we s/c and eat out

re: bansko

Try the Hotel Strazhite ...we went Jan2004 ..its brandnew fantastic fasilities...indoor pool saunas steam room & bowling ally.The onsweet bathrooms are top notch as are the rooms with balcony.Food i found good although not much for veggies ...over all a very nice place to stay......when i got home i found that i'd accidently put one of their big lovely bathrobes in my suitcase ..oof! silly me

re: bansko

Hotel Perun is excellent.
Outside heated pool a must (40 degrees)
Also excellent indoor pool saunas hot tub steam room etc.
Food good, beer cheap at the bar.
About 10 mins walk to centre of town (hotel will drive you and pick you up 1lev per person per journey)
Various games machines pool etc.
Transport to gondola station or 5 mins walk.

Yip, Bansko is definitely the resort you want to go to. In my opinion, the best ski resort in Bulgaria for the quality and variety of pisted runs for all abilities - especially the intermediate!

Hotel Strazhite is where we stay every year and can't fault it - honestly.

You won't be disappointed.

You've always got the 5 star Kempinski Grand Arena - very nice! The sports facilities are to die for
