re: virgin skier going to borovets
Went to Boro for first time this Feb. and we stayed at the Samokov.The hotel is great. Do not expect a western 4* though. The rooms are a good size and have T.V. ( mostly non-English ) Now the food - breakfast is brilliant - go to the top right hand side and get a freshly made omelette, sets you up for the day.The rest is buffet style with many choices , sausage,toast,scrambled eggs(bit runny) cereals,fruit,salad + tea and coffee.

Evening meals were mostly good , but we went out a couple of times for some variety.But we did have kids with us.We would have probably gone out more if on our own, as it is not expensive.
Boro is fantastic , the ski-school was an experience though.Our instructor-Chris was crap.But i think we were unlucky , as most people were very happy.We did enjoy the skiing very much , but feel that we could have learnt more under better instruction.It was half term week , so the slopes and groups were very busy.
When you first go to the top of the Gondola it will take your breath away ! It really is worth going just for the amazing views.( Take your camera )
To summarize - you will enjoy the skiing ( good luck with the instructor ) The hotel is great.The resort is perfect for a virgin like you.Enjoy !
We will be back in Feb 2007
