Have just read through this and it does make me chuckle how people say they will never go anywhere again because they saw a fight.
If that is the case, that probably means that they won't venture into the towns where they live on a Saturday night ever again.
I remember going skiing in Austria 20 years ago and seeing a fight, started by the locals I might add, but it didn't mean I wouldn't go to Austria ever again.
two fights in 1 week and 1 in the pub of the hotel whice took round 10 bar staff and 1 cop to stop and kids with there mothers and fathers in that bar. ya its a great spot.great place to bring ur family
Fights happen everywhere and anywhere, go to any town centre in the UK on a Friday or Saturday night and you will see a fight somewhere. So if I where you I just would never go out again incase I saw another fight.
Just another reason to stay in a villa just outside a ski resort. Choose your own company and restaurants to use .Lots of skiers are now using their own chalets and rooms in our village of Momchilovtsi as its cheaper [beer .35 p bottle of mine £3 and a meal £3] Also you get the choice of traditional Rhodopi live music and friendly Bulgarian company or a £5 taxi ride to the resort of Pamporovo and enjoy the entertainment of your choice.
The reality is that things are changing and changing quickly in regards to bulgaria.

Prices have escalated dramatically, and for a lot of seasoned bulgarian travellers, the value is no longer there.

I understand exactly what you are saying...I, like you and many others on this board, will not be going back. I did not witness any loutish behaviour or fighting when I was in Bulgaria but there were many other factors that influenced my decision. These reasons are the same as what you talked about.
I don't quite understand why everyone jumped so defensively on your comment about being beaten up and seeing a fight. Yes it does happen, always has and always will when alchohol ...

I don't quite understand why everyone jumped so defensively on your comment about being beaten up and seeing a fight. Yes it does happen, always has and always will when alchohol is involved but you did not say, that, that was the only reason for you to stay away. I'm sorry to hear that your holiday wasn't the best.
