hotel Ela. i enjoyed every minute of my time in borovets, there was nothing i disliked really
re: first timer
Number 1 for snow record and amount slopes is without doubt Bansko. An explosion of building work has left the town looking a bit of a mess over thae past 2 seasons but if you are prepared to put up with this and want the best of Bulgarian skiing then this would be my recommendation.
Borovets is more for the party lovers who love to ski and party at the same time with lots of bars and quite active nightlife.
Pamporovo is great for families and groups with a good central bank of hotels ...

Pamporovo is great for families and groups with a good central bank of hotels surrounding all the nightlife.
Whichever you chose you will find people on here saying you made the right or wrong choice.
For me, Pamporovo ticks all the boxes - but I can quite understand why people prefer the others.

re: first timer
thank you for your comments pamporovo pete i do like a bit of a night life re: first timer
I suppose it will also depend on whether you want to try all 3 resorts or stick with Boro, as you know what to expect and know your way around.It's very hard not to be biased as I've been going to Boro for a long time
There's all standards in our group that go and they all find challenges and fun out there. They know instructors well and are taken off piste etc but then we all meet up to 'social' ski. We find it easy to find one another and meet up.
re: first timer
borovets has captured my heart, everyone was helpful, kind and encouraging if things work out, 
i will be going again, i will be reading all the views posted and may try them later when i've gained more experiencere: first timer
Sounds like you went with a brilliant attitudeI've always found if you treat people well, you receive the same back (most of the time)
What places did you enjoy for apres ski
re: first timer
there was a couple of places on the main road, alpina, and behind main ski hire place, and a nighclub that had a karoake on , i dont drink much at allre: first timer
When you have booked, ask for recommended places - you will get a long listSounds like you found some of the most popular places - Alpina and the Karaoke Bar. The Alpina may move premises for next season as it was so popular this year, due to their prices and hosts
re: first timer
i went where the patrons were enjoying themselves as usually an empty place is not normally good re: first timer
Depends - sometimes the best Bulgarian food is to be found in quieter places
