hi, hotel orlovets is a fantastic hotel, I stayed there last year, it would be the only one I would stay in, friendly staff,food ok!! great pool and spa, location is super beside the 1st bus stop for the slopes, under ground access to the other main hotels with in the resort.
i would second the vote for the Murgavets, we stayed in the pamporovo which was shite...[.whoops sorry am i allowed to use that word? am sure pete will change it if i cant] and went to the other one to use there spa and pool plus internet access
I would definately recommend the mourgavets. Stayed there in March. Great central location, comfy rooms, food was pretty good. Just watch out for the dodgy keyboard player in the restaurant at night. There was free use of the sauna in the spa attached too.
From this hotel there is indoor access to the perelik complex so you do not even get your toes cold at night.
