Description of Holiday Chalet
The three-bedroom chalet can accommodate up to eight people and has everything you need. It is equipped with central heating, kitchen-diner, two bathrooms with shower, sauna, hairdryer, ironing facilities and cable TV. The chalet is part of a three-star gated hotel complex, so you also have the added bonus of access to a full range of hotel facilities.
You won’t be skiing, hiking, bike riding or horse riding every minute so it’s great that the hotel has a range of superb facilities:
Dining and drinking: the hotel has its own bar and café. There is also the excellent Ethno Restaurant, offering exclusively Bulgarian national cuisine and drinks from all regions of the country, including specialties from Bansko and the local Melnik wines.
Even if you eat here every night you will never need to have the same thing twice as there are 65 salads, 50 hot appetizers and numerous main course specialties to choose from. Enjoy a range of chicken, pork, beef, lamb, rabbit, fish and vegetable dishes. Local favourites include Banski staretz, kapama, sweet stuffed wine leaves, fresh trout in tomato sauce, fish ‘on a tile’, mussels, roasted lamb with drob-sarma and home-made banitza.
Hotel services: the hotel complex also offers room service, 24-hour front desk, bar, café, airport shuttle, business centre, babysitting, currency exchange, bicycle rental, car rental, free wireless internet in public areas and free parking.
Skiing Facilities
The pistes are approximately seven miles above the town on the northern slopes of Pirin Mountain and are easily accessible. It takes just 25 minutes to reach the main ski areas of Chalin Valog (1100-1600m) and Shiligarnika (1700-2500m). Before embarking you are able to check out conditions such as temperature and wind on the monitors at the lift station. Then climb aboard the gondola, which transports you 1700m skimming across alpine forest blanketed in thick snow, and enjoy the breathtaking views of the surrounding mountains. Once on the mountain the fun starts, with 23 ski lifts to get you to your chosen slopes.
The slopes offer runs and tracks for all types of skiers and will suit both beginners and experts.
The area is especially welcoming to families.
There are great facilities for children, with ski-kindergartens for kids with new drags and a child-friendly ski run. There’s even a Junior Club with three baby drags and a Wonder Carpets baby track.
Location of Holiday Chalet
The chalet overlooks the Pirin Mountains to the South and the Rila Mountains to the North. Both of these ranges are renowned for their beauty and facilities for outdoor activities.
