Hi Craig
Try Pippa at Snow White Skiing. She posts on here regularly (and can be contacted through facebook). We have a similar family group, needing 3 separate rooms and she has very spacious, comfortable 3 room apartments at Panorama, which is at Stoykite.
Check out tripadvisor as well for reviews of the Panorama Apartments which give a good impression of the place.
You may struggle now though if you are trying to book for half-term.
Good luck!

Hi Craig

I've been out many times and have stayed at the Finlandia once and the other times at Evridika Hills. I would personally recommend E Hills or The Castle complex (next door) as they are both sort of mid mountain and are ski in/out on piste 7, subject to conditions. They are also great places to stay and more modern (in a nice way) than some of the other hotels. In my opinion anyway.

Hi Craig

I've been out many times and have stayed at the Finlandia once and the other times at Evridika Hills. I would personally recommend E Hills or The Castle complex (next door) as they are both sort of mid mountain and are ski in/out on piste 7, subject to conditions. They are also great places to stay and more modern (in a nice way) than some of the other hotels. In my opinion anyway. As I mentioned they are half way up the mountain so it's a 10 minute walk down the piste into the town (or a very quick and cheap cab) where there are lots of choices for food and drink. I think some of the places are also open in the studenets ski centre during the evening which is just up the (albeit steep) hill. What I often do in the evenings however is eat at the castle bar. The food and drink is decent, it's a nice little place and very good value.

All 3 of the hotels I've mentioned can be booked through this site I believe but as always it's worth shopping around and considering some of the ideas the other guys have mentioned in previous posts.

I mentioned 'subject to conditions' earlier as you are going very early season which is sometimes hit and miss with the snow, as it is in the Alps - see the last 2 seasons in particular! However, the cannons and piste management in Pamps is genuinely excellent so, bar a freak heatwave, you will have a great time. Pamporovo is excellent for beginners and decent for intermediates, is in a beautiful part of the world plus it has the unique Bulgarian culture which is a nice change from Western Europe.

If you need any other advice, just ask.

Josh
