oops where are you staying while there??

re: borovets prices???

Ows It is cheap but not dirt cheap, £200 may be pushing it a bit if you intend on eating out a lot and drinking mcuh as well. Beer can be had for around the £1 mark and you should be able to fill your face for under a tenner a head. But I understand the prices on the slopes this year in Boro have shot up much better value in resort.

re: borovets prices???

that was based on half board...
jo the cheap scape.

re: borovets prices???

I took £200 when I first went in 98 Jo and pretty much went through it all!!! It could still be done if you are half board I suppose. Think I spent the best part of £500 last Jan in Pamps for 2 people and that was eating out every night so not bad really.

re: borovets prices???

I reckon a family of four who want to eat and drink well will need about 150 Lev a day - large 'English' breakfast 8 Lev, snack for lunch, nice meal with drinks in the evening....few more drinkies thrown in for good measure ! A decent grilled meat meal costs around 10 - 15 Lev (£4 - £5 approx). Go for the local brews such as the local beer, vodka etc and it's dirt cheap - good too ! 150 Lev is approx £50.00 - it may have gone up but it's still not bad is it !!

Hi

As everybody has said it is cheap, but beware if stopping for a snack at the top of the mountain. They charge 5.00lev for a small bottle of water and 5 lev for a mini Mars Bar !!
