re: just back from borovets

We agree with all that you wrote but want to add that Francos bar also does great food.We stayed in the Rila as you know but from our experience of visiting your hotel(Iglika) that this would be our choice next year as it seems a lot cozier and more friendly and from what you you told us the food seems to be better.We think that the Rila is probably too big and the bar waitresses are miserable!! Oh I nearly forgot to mention our ski instuctor-KIKO-we have had for 2 years running HE IS DA BEST!

re: just back from borovets

Yes, everything said is very true. We consider this the best holiday we've ever had, thoroughly enjoyed it. The Iglika is a great hotel with friendly service and a warm atmosphere. We're already missing the snowy slopes and can't wait to book up for next year. Though as has already been mentioned we won't risk our lives at new year again but will wait until feb next year. We also feel the need to big up our main man Kiko the best ski instructor in Borovets!!! Very Happy
