Hi Kerry,
don't worry about the hotels, normally it's just a food thing but I have no problems with it (I go for the ski, not the food Wink)
Which hotel? Like Neil say, you will have a fab time, trust me!

Relax, as the previous messages say ,
the hotels are ok and the food is ok , not fantastic but ok, Please dont misunderstand they are ok, but if you dont like the food in the hotel there is plenty of choice all around the resort.
have fun , just prey for snow.

Dont worry, we stayed at the Rila last year and have booked again for this year. Hotel is fine, food not great but at £5 per head for a chinese banquet who can complain. We too three children with us and they cant wait to go back.

re: skiing at christmas

We have skiied Borovets for the past 3 years and have had great times. Trust me you will love it also. Stayed in Olymp and Samokov both of which area bit basic but the all day ski school, cheap goods and excellent night life more than make up for this. Only one tip if you are in a hotel - Make sute you lock the door even when in the room! There are some nasty crims who watch when you leave your room and then try the door just in case you left it undone. I suffered the embarrassment of this ...

I suffered the embarrassment of this happening to me despite the fact I was enjoying a lovely hot bath at the time! The hotels are aware of the problem and do all they can to stop it.
