I have been in Rila hotel few times over the years but mostly in the summer. I love the location because it is right in the middle of everything. I like how the hotel has been renovated and is constantly improving. The breakfast is great and has variety of choices. However the recent prices I think was a bit too much for the quality provided. The beds need to be improved as not comfortable. Also another thing I really was disappointed from was the thick ice in front of the property and on the whole parking lot. For such a major and expensive hotel, this shouldnt be an issue, the parking should be cleaned and the front of the hotel also. It is not something impossible. Other than that it is a nice place.

Stayed at the rila in March and we couldn't fault the hotel. Our room was lovely, it was modern, clean and spacious with a lovely balcony overlooking the slopes. Breakfast and evening meals in the hotel were good, it was fresh and lots of choices. The location was perfect for the slopes, bars and restaurants. The spa was fantastic and pool area/ jacuzzi too. Pick up of ski equipment was very straight forward. Though I would not describe the guys working in their as friendly, in fact far from it (all except one). Have to agree with others that the 1pm pick up by Balkan is not ideal. The mall was big and quite nice, however it is not what we were on holiday for and left us at the airport 4 and half hours early of our take off time. Especially not good when we were then delayed an hour and had a 3 hour drive home in the Uk. All very frustrating. Overall, a great holiday.

You can rent skiing gear at the hotel and also buy a ski pass. Any equipment you bring they will keep safe. We had a superior room (two adults, two children) and the room size was just perfect. They give you a welcome tea and coffe, also ketle is available in the room which is very convenient. Ski lift is in front of the hotel, and there is pleanty of tracks available from there. Ski school is also next to the ski lift. Overall everything was perfect and we will come again next year!

Great hotel, ski slope literally on doorstep. Ski rental/storage guys brilliant, excellent breakfast buffet, delicious Xmas and New Years eve dinner & entertainment, spa facilities very good, beautiful terrace, kids club wonderful. Perfect room. Extremely professional Ski school for our 7 year old son, Fantastic skiing, only one point to mention…WiFi unstable and frustrating at times

Well another great trip to Borovets Bulgaria, we stayed at the Rila Hotel again and the experience was fantastic. The staff were brilliant and our room was amazing with a scenic view out onto the slopes. The food was varied and plenty of it. I made good use or the pool and spa areas this time and if you timed it right they weren't too busy. The only criticism I have this year is the introduction of the guests having to leave the hotel at 1pm on their day of departure. This is fine if you have early flights, however if you are not flying until later in the evening there are issues. The Rila and Balkan holidays have come up with an idea to bus you out at 1pm and take you to a large shopping mall on the outskirts of Sofia for hours instead of you being able to relax and spend time in the resort enjoying the scenery, bars, restaurants which is what you came for, not spending half a day at a mall. I hope this option will change as my guests are thinking of other travel and hotel arrangements if they are being forced to comply with what is now in place. The Rila is a fantastic hotel and I hope we can continue to be a part of their experience. Regards, Richard Paines BEM

Terrace lounge! The best après ski bar in Borovets! We are guests for the second year in a row and, as always, everything is up to par. The menu - exclusive offers! The music - great tracks. And above all, the service - more than professional! Congratulations on the selection of the team!

Hotel facilities were great. Rooms are clean, the maids are friendly and helpful each day. Some staff need some training in customer service - it was hard to find a member of bar staff who made us feel welcome. Bar staff at the terrace especially - we felt like a burden every evening so we started going out to different places. Ski and boot hire on the first day was a circus! Much more coordination needs to be done between staff as our whole group was made to feel uncomfortable and problematic (not sure if this is wholly the hotel’s fault). But this wasn’t a great experience and none of the reps really knew what was going on either. Food is good - lots of fresh choice. Spa is great - lovely woman on reception who is so welcoming every day. Overall good, but I feel that when spending money on a nice hotel, customer service needs to be a priority - I’ve had my drink slammed in front of me and eyes rolled a few times this week!!
