The place is nice, new and we'll maintained. As people mentioned before, the room we had was extremely small nearly enough to accommodate an open suitcase on the floor, let alone walk around next to it. The shower has a transparent door that doesn't shut completely. No shower curtain so the floor gets wet when you shower. Wifi didn't reach the room. The team doesn't speak a word(!) of English, in our experience. Nothing of the above is too bad but for the room size. Just know what to expect.

    My family and I stayed in Borovets in early May, and even though the ski lift was out of service, we had a wonderful time. We explored several nature trails, like the scenic Beli Iskar path, which were perfect for family walks surrounded by stunning mountain views. The kids loved our horseback riding adventure through the Rila Mountains, and we easily spent a relaxing half-day at the hotel’s spa, unwinding in the pool and saunas. Borovets offered plenty of activities to keep us entertained, making it a great destination even outside ski season

    It is a magical remote location situated in an amazing forest.Clean, fresh air and beautiful forest of tall pine trees. Very well maintained and cute surroundings. It is not exactly a village but a remote location with few mountain hotels .Perfect for hiking to the Seven Rilla Lakes or other less difficult hikes.You need a car for sure but there are also buses from Sofia passing through.The lift is far for a walking distance .It is around 6.5 km from there.

    There was enough to see at the monastary, even though most museums there seemed no to be open (it was February!). Entrance is free but be ready to pay 5 levs for parking (you do get all day for that). The area has dramatic scenery with some other things to see other than just the Monastary. We visited the grave of James Baucher and discovered why Sofia has a station named after this Irishman!

The villa is new , clean and very comfortable, equipped with everything you need and even more.

    The hotel was nice with great view and private parking. It's a great place for a city break. The food in the restaurant was nice. What we didn't like was that the hot water in the hotel was not with optimal water temperature for a shower. At the reception they explained that they are using solar water heaters and these days the weather was cloudy. Hope that they are going to fix this in the future. :)

    Nice slopes. Expensive hotels close to the slopes.

    Nice slopes. Expensive hotels close to the slopes. But you can stay at any hotel and come up to the slope by car, 10..15 BGN the parking fee. The Rila hotel is cool (the indoors pool) but you need to plan in advance the stay. Also, if you do not have kids try to plan your stay when schools are not in vacation in Romania and/or England.

    Very friendly and helpful staff, great car parking, comfortable bed, good wifi, nice swimming pool (a little on the small side). Very good breakfast with a good choice of different options. On the down side, no lift, no air-conditioning and a little deceptive to mention that the Rila Monastery was about 16km away...not CLEARLY mentioning that this is in a straight line. It is a one and a half hour drive..... 😔

    We take all our foreign guests to visit the Monastery.

    We take all our foreign guests to visit the Monastery. It is iconic. The parking cost 5 Leva, but there is no entry fee to the Monastery. The two museums in the monastery require an entry fee, but are worth the price. Make sure that you see the clock tower bells that ring on the hour. Behind the Monastery is a little fast food place that sells a Bulgarian treat called "makitsa", it costs 1 Lev and even the Bulgarians will tell you that is the best "makitsa" in the country.

    Borovets is destroyed! Too many builders' works.

    Borovets is destroyed! Too many builders' works. Everything everywhere is covered with mud or fine muddy sand. There are many abandoned buildings in some mid-construction state. Our car was covered in mud outside and inside. My childhood memories of a nice place for fun and relaxation in the mountains were wiped out and replaced by the awful muddy place I wouldn't want to visit again. There are no sidewalks; and if some are visible, they are either completely covered with meter-deep ice and snow or partially destroyed, uneven, and muddy, so the tourists have to walk between the moving cars, especially with ski boots it's impossible to walk on the almost gone and covered-in mud sidewalk. The only good thing was the designated areas for snow sleds. This made a difference compared to other places we visited, like Bansko or Vitosha. The kids had good fun. Unfortunately, the fun on the slope ended up with going back to the mud that was all around.
