Snow and Wake Bulgaria’s Boutique Chalet Hotel opened in December 2008. The new hotel’s grounds are located in a charming rustic village just minutes from the ski lifts at Borovets. In nearby villages the enchantment of Eastern Europe is still visible with horse-drawn carriages being used to bring firewood to local residents. The lobby bar sits near a large log fire and on the second floor is a game room. Each bedroom features cable TV, wi-fi Internet and mini bar. Outside on the terrace, you’ll find a large hot tub, the perfect way to unwind after a long day on the slopes.
In addition to skiing and snowboarding on some of Europe’s best slopes you will also have the opportunity to enjoy horse riding, snow shoeing, Nordic skiing, alpine skiing, snow mobiling and snow boarding.
Bulgaria has for many, remained an unknown quantity for many years. But emerging beautifully from behind the Iron Curtain and through its union with the rest of Europe in 2007, travellers are discovering a country full of rustic charm, breathtaking scenery and unending hospitality, comfortably mixed with modern bars, restaurants and fashion boutiques. The Capital Sofia, just an hour from Borovets, enjoys a young and dynamic vibe, and mixes culture with all the modern trimmings you would expect of a capital city.
Borovets itself is one of Bulgaria’s oldest ski resorts and in traditional resort style; guests have easy access to on- and off-piste activities. Borovets and the Rila Mountains sees some of the most perfect powder conditions in Europe with two metres of snow depth at any time between mid-December through April due to the cold, dry air found in Bulgaria. Borovets caters to all level of skiers and boarders, but is still one of Europe’s best-kept secrets, which translates into beautifully clear runs and less congestion in the queues.
