We booked the hotel together with 4 other couples. We had an amazing time in the area and the hotel is very well renovated with an excellent Spa area. Lots of entertainment for small and big. Staff was very friendly and the food was also up to standards as expected. We had a family member forget something in the hotel, and reception was extremely helpful and send it via post at their expense! Highly recommended.
Seen some negative reviews on here. I’d just say it’s good value. If you’re looking for 4/5star this aint for you. If you’re looking for somewhere comfortable to sleep and are happy to eat basic Bulgarian food. then jump in. Stayed with my 11 year old son, he was happy enough (using his mobile data, the wifi is poor), ate the food without too much fuss. Staff were pleasant and kind. Would stay again. Might forgo the halfboard, and just eat out for dinner. Although for the money it was nice to have the choice.
