Have been to all three big resorts with the family,
Pamporova,
Fors, Great for beginners, sunny, friendly.
Against, Have to get bus to slopes, pestered by bell boys, not enough variety for better skiers.
Bansko,
Fors, Greater variety of slopes, Hotel facilities great, lots going on on the slopes.
Against, Gondola a nightmare at half term, no snow around hotel when we went, food/drink places on slopes busy and comparatively expensive.

Borovets,
Fors, Hotels at foot of slopes, great for popping back to hotel, slopes varied unless your a black runner, great atmosphere.
Against, Most hotels dated, gondola to top slopes shut a lot due to wind.
For us Borovets wins everytime (although I have a soft spot for Pamporova, but family disagree.
Pamporovo has the chilled out vibe, a good few pubs and is generally fun particularly if you are a beginner and the awards night is a good crack
Borovets is busier, pumping night life, the skiing is better if you are an intermediate beginner (like me 2 or 3 ski trips under the belt).
Both are set in beautiful scenery and both are a perfect 'way-in' to learning the ski ropes...
But my heart of hearts goes to Pamps as it was where ...
Done Boro & Pamps...depends what you want really!
