I had a wonderful stay at this hotel! The staff were incredibly nice and welcoming. The restaurant served delicious food. The room offered an excellent view of the mountains, which was truly breathtaking. The spa was spotless. The hotel is surrounded by a beautifully maintained green area (and an outdoor swimming pool) adding to the overall serene and peaceful atmosphere. It is also close to picturesque 7 lakes. Highly recommended!

Good location, 10 mins drive to Seven Rila Lakes Chairlift station and right opposite a beautiful forest. Our experience with both the front desk and restaurant staff are great. Breakfast is varied and lots to offer. We asked for lower floor to minimize lugging of bags upstairs since there’s no elevator. The view from the room is still fantastic despite the lower floor. Room is clean and more spacious than expected.

Perfect location - you can start skiing right from the entrance to the hotel. Ski pass and equipment you can buy inside the hotel. Good breakfast and dinner (with an amazing mountain view). We also asked for the birthday package for our daughter - and it was really great (includes beautiful cake with candles, lemonades and gift - all for extra payment). The pool was a really good activity for the evening. We and our kids (aged 4 and 10) really enjoyed the stay, and we would be happy to come back again.

Our stay was wonderful! The rooms were clean, spacious, and warm — very comfortable overall. The bathroom was spotless, with plenty of hot water and all necessary amenities. The living room had a large couch that could easily fit four people, and the TV offered many channels. The kitchenette was a big plus — it had a fridge and was perfect for preparing quick snacks. The restaurant served tasty homemade food, and having lunch in the garden while the sun was shining was a real treat. The service was friendly and helpful throughout our stay. The bar offered a great variety of drinks, and the snack bar was perfect for children who didn’t want to eat at the regular meal times. We also enjoyed the activities — the gaming room was fun, and we went hiking and cycling in the mountains. We definitely plan to come back for a ski vacation! The surroundings were absolutely beautiful — a mesmerizing view of the Rila forest, close to a river, and the air was fresh and clean. Highly recommend this place!

Everything was wonderful! The hut Yagoda was clean, cozy and comfortable. The restaurant dishes were tasty and the personnel were extremely kind and attentive, in particular a young teenager girl named Lyubomira. The whole facility is great and I'm going to come back for sure! I could work in peace and then enjoy the quietness and the freshness of the woods with a yummy barbecue for which there was a fire pit at my disposal Thank you!

The location was perfect. The food was good. The spa was very nice after a day skiing. My partner and I stayed in a superior double room with a beautiful view of the ski slopes and mountains. The bed was enormous and very comfortable The bathroom had a bath and shower, which we loved, and the actual toilet was in a separate room from the bathroom.

The Hotel has amazing view of the Rila ridge, easy and free parking, excellent resturant. But the best feature for sure is the staff! Helped us with every question and request, all with a smile. Most of all NiKi, smiling, polite, helpful and just made us feel at home. And as a birdwatcher, excelent birding on the Hotel lawn and around.

My family and I stayed in Borovets in early May, and even though the ski lift was out of service, we had a wonderful time. We explored several nature trails, like the scenic Beli Iskar path, which were perfect for family walks surrounded by stunning mountain views. The kids loved our horseback riding adventure through the Rila Mountains, and we easily spent a relaxing half-day at the hotel’s spa, unwinding in the pool and saunas. Borovets offered plenty of activities to keep us entertained, making it a great destination even outside ski season

It is a magical remote location situated in an amazing forest.Clean, fresh air and beautiful forest of tall pine trees. Very well maintained and cute surroundings. It is not exactly a village but a remote location with few mountain hotels .Perfect for hiking to the Seven Rilla Lakes or other less difficult hikes.You need a car for sure but there are also buses from Sofia passing through.The lift is far for a walking distance .It is around 6.5 km from there.

The hotel was nice with great view and private parking. It's a great place for a city break. The food in the restaurant was nice. What we didn't like was that the hot water in the hotel was not with optimal water temperature for a shower. At the reception they explained that they are using solar water heaters and these days the weather was cloudy. Hope that they are going to fix this in the future. :)

Nice slopes. Expensive hotels close to the slopes. But you can stay at any hotel and come up to the slope by car, 10..15 BGN the parking fee. The Rila hotel is cool (the indoors pool) but you need to plan in advance the stay. Also, if you do not have kids try to plan your stay when schools are not in vacation in Romania and/or England.

Very friendly and helpful staff, great car parking, comfortable bed, good wifi, nice swimming pool (a little on the small side). Very good breakfast with a good choice of different options. On the down side, no lift, no air-conditioning and a little deceptive to mention that the Rila Monastery was about 16km away...not CLEARLY mentioning that this is in a straight line. It is a one and a half hour drive..... 😔

There was enough to see at the monastary, even though most museums there seemed no to be open (it was February!). Entrance is free but be ready to pay 5 levs for parking (you do get all day for that). The area has dramatic scenery with some other things to see other than just the Monastary. We visited the grave of James Baucher and discovered why Sofia has a station named after this Irishman!

Borovets is destroyed! Too many builders' works.

Borovets is destroyed! Too many builders' works. Everything everywhere is covered with mud or fine muddy sand. There are many abandoned buildings in some mid-construction state. Our car was covered in mud outside and inside. My childhood memories of a nice place for fun and relaxation in the mountains were wiped out and replaced by the awful muddy place I wouldn't want to visit again. There are no sidewalks; and if some are visible, they are either completely covered with meter-deep ice and snow or partially destroyed, uneven, and muddy, so the tourists have to walk between the moving cars, especially with ski boots it's impossible to walk on the almost gone and covered-in mud sidewalk. The only good thing was the designated areas for snow sleds. This made a difference compared to other places we visited, like Bansko or Vitosha. The kids had good fun. Unfortunately, the fun on the slope ended up with going back to the mud that was all around.
