hi.
I am going to the hotel Rila in Borovets on Sat 23 Dec for xmas and wondered if their xmas food was ok or should we book somewhere else to eat on xmas day? they include a gala dinner and just wondered if anyone had any experience of it? I am going this Sat so would appreciate any comments before hand.
Thanks a lot n Merry Christmas!!!!!!!!

what about the entertainment that goes with the gala dinners-is it worth staying in for?
