Pamporovo Reviews by Customers

"2008 was a great year for skiing in pamporovo, I took a party of 16 skiers with mixed abilities from beginners to advanced. Everyone had a great time all the children learnt to ski in glorious sunshine, something we have missed in France over the last 5 years. The food was amazing and including drinks a three course meal cost us 6.00 per head on the mountain. "

"I booked a double apartment for the week over New Year to sleep 4. Firstly the apartment was far better than expected. Brand new, excellent facilities and huge! The views over the Snezhanka peak were fantastic and the facilities in the hotel are great. Try finding a hotel in the Alps with a pool this nice. The resort is very picturesque with some beautiful tree runs and while it is suited to beginners I was more than able to challenge myself on the mountain and put my 20+ yrs of experience to the test on occasion. My friends who were beginners loved the ski school and have an invite back to Plovdiv to visit their instructor! Nightlife is as lively as you want to make it and, if you stick to the local delicacies, the restaurants serve some tasty bargains. Thoroughly recommend the hotel and resort and if you're looking for something a bit different there's a whole new world around the resort to satisfy the wanderlust. We're booked in for next year! "

"I visited this resort for the first time last week (23/02/09). I had the most wonderful skiing experience. It is such a beautiful resort. I have never skied in such an alpine environment - trees lining almost every run. I have read bad reviews about Pamporov - mainly about the snowfall. If you pick it right (don’t risk going very early or late unless it is a last min booking) then you will have a fantastic time - at a 3rd of the price of Western resorts. I will definitely be going back next year."

Ski Holidays in Pamporovo, Bulgaria

Situated high up in the Rhodopa mountains at the foot of Mount Snejanka this Bulgarian resort is ideal for beginners and intermediates. The long greens and blues, as well as the nursery slopes down in the village are ideal for learning and progressing on. Ski instruction is of an extremely high standard and, because Bulgaria is so easy on the wallet, individual tuition can be very affordable. Many of the instructors also speak English fluently. Confident intermediates and advanced skiers will find a World Cup run and some interesting through-the-trees off piste but this is really a resort for beginner skiers and snowboarders who want to learn and progress.

The après ski on ski holidays in Pamporovo is quite lively and confined mainly to the hotel bars. The most popular bars are BJ's (inside Hotel Perelik) and Spider Night Club (inside Hotel Murgavets). Both of these hotels are connected by an under ground passage, which makes pub crawls that must easier. For those looking for a good night out on the town during their ski holidays in Pamporovo, then a Balkan Pub Crawl night will definately appeal to you. Other activities that you can enjoy on ski holidays in Pamporovo include bowling, historical excursions, swimming and shopping.
