Bor
The original hotel of Borovets, built nearly sixty years ago but do not let that put you off for the interior is modern and comfortable with a mini bar, restaurant, games room and lounge. Prices at the bar are significantly lower than that of the main Rila hotel, and rooms are usually offered at half-board allowing for a buffet system breakfast and dinner. The area around the Bor is scenic and quiet, however it must be noted that the Bor hotel is outside of the main Borovets area therefore it is advised that you either allow 15 minutes walking time between leaving the hotel and arrival at the slopes or put aside 10lv for a horse-drawn carriage ride which can be found outside the lobby's main entrance.
Villa Stresov
Villa Stresov was rebuilt in 1996 as Borovets' only five-star villa by the Marianne Djidrova Nielsen, a granddaughter of the Stresovs, now living in Chicago, Illinois with her husband Philipn. While only 600 meters from the center of Borovets and ski lifts, the villa is secluded among towering pines at the foot of Mt. Musala. Each of the Villa's four upstairs bedrooms can be rented individually, or the entire Villa is available for up to ten adults. There is a landscaped garden in the back, with a building for a six person hot tub, and another large BBQ house. A gazebo sits in the back corner overlooking the gardens.
Rila
A large hotel located right on the lower slopes; rooms are comfortable and clean. the hotel has a swimming pool and a large lobby bar. the food provided in the restaurant towards the season anyway is not to be recommended, although this isn't a huge problem as there are a number of reasonably priced places to eat in the town.
Iskar Hotel & Chalets
Small, modern family run complex with a hotel and 5 chalets on the outskirts of Govadertsi village. It has its own ski run nearby and is about a 30 minute transfer to Borovets. The rooms are all nicely decorated in a modern style, each has an ensuite and the majority have balcony views of the Rila Mountains. There is a large dining room and lounge with real log fire and bar. It's a really relaxed environment, so you can be as lively or as lazy as you like! The hotel is half board, with breakfast and a three course evening meal each night, prepared by a British cook. The family that own the place also organise all your transport and ski hire, and are really knowledgeable of the local area so able to help organise other activities. It's ideal for big groups and families, and the quiet rural setting can be a nice escape from the hustle and bustle of Borovets at night. There is room for up to 30 people and they offer group discounts.
