We chose this hotel because of its location and spa. The room was a family room and it was very spacious with a lovely balcony and view. The beds were comfortable and the bathroom was well equipped. The communal areas around the hotel were nicely presented and the spa was good (although perhaps not the best compared to the other 5 stars). A few people did question the pool temperature and the fact that there was no jacuzzi. Breakfast was as expected although it felt a bit cramped- they could have laid out the food area better to prevent bottle neck queues. The main thing they could have improved on was the front desk service (left wanting) and restocking the complimentary water, tea and coffee (which they wouldn’t do despite us staying for 4 nights as a family and it being supposedly 5 star). That said, we would stay there again due to its location.

Just to say how impressed we are with the breakfast staff, especially Halil, he is always happy to meet the guests and helps with the attending to our every need. For the only comment for the rooms would be ice to have blackout curtains and coffee and milk and water in the room for free.

The service and food are at a great level. Maybe one of the best place in Borovets with an extremely kind and professional waiter Anton. He is always kind, polite and responsive. I recommend it even just for coffee, lunch or dinner. The atmosphere is great.

Nice hotel but experience ruined by trying to charge extra for the ski storage room and taking away the water cooler at dinner time! We always bought drinks from the bar to have with dinner but the little thing of drinking water is poor for a 5 star hotel.

Beautiful hotel, spotlessly clean. Loved the leather sofas and traditional decor. The staff were so lovely. The breakfast staff were very attentive and helpful, every one of them. Spa was good. Room huge and good view from balcony. Very close to main slopes and lifts- 5 mins walk. Would definitely recommend.

А wonderful hotel. Prime located in the very center of the mountain resort, just a few steps away from the beginning of hiking routes, additional dining and entertainment options and the ski lift. The atmosphere inside is very cozy, especially for a mountain resort. It offers a different, classic setting and high level of service. Special thanks to Mrs. Svetla Stoyanova - Front Office Manager, who pays very special attention to ensuring that guests are satisfied with their stay and will come back again.
