hotel overview:
The four-star Rila Hotel with a classic ski-in/ski-out location, is the most impressive hotel in Borovets. It was built in 1986 by the French company Les Arcs and is located amidst the breathtakingly beautiful and unspoiled scenery of Rila Mountain, in the heart of Borovets at the height of 1350 meters. The hotel provides perfect holidays for any age and during any season.
What guests appreciate most
The strongest advantage of Rila Hotel is its excellent position directly beside the ski slopes and within a short walk of the main lifts, restaurants and entertainment in central Borovets. Guests frequently appreciate the spacious, warm and well-maintained rooms, comfortable beds, good cleanliness and mountain views. Breakfast, the selection of dining venues, the indoor swimming pool, spa area, ski storage and the convenience of having numerous services within the hotel are also commonly praised.
What guests most often complain about
This is a large hotel, and during periods of high occupancy the restaurant, swimming pool, reception and other public areas may feel crowded and noisy. Some guests report inconsistent service quality and slower service at busy times. Feedback regarding dinner, drinks and value for money is mixed, while a number of visitors consider certain rooms or furnishing details to appear dated. Because of the central location and active entertainment area, some rooms may be affected by external or internal noise.
Who is this hotel suitable for?
Rila Hotel is particularly suitable for skiers, families, couples and groups seeking direct access to the slopes and a central resort location. The swimming pool, children's facilities, restaurants and range of entertainment make it a practical option for family holidays. Its large capacity and conference centre are also convenient for organised groups, corporate events and conferences.
Our recommendation
We recommend Rila Hotel to travellers who prioritise a ski-in and ski-out location, an extensive range of services and a lively resort atmosphere. Before booking, guests should confirm the exact room category and position, view, included meal plan, parking arrangements and access conditions for individual spa services. Travellers seeking a small boutique property, complete tranquillity or highly personalised service may prefer a smaller hotel outside the busiest area of Borovets.
Location:
view the mapOnly 70km away from Sofia International Airport (50 min. drive), the hotel is located in the highest Bulgarian mountain range – Rila (2925m), among the stunning ancient pine trees of Borovets Resort. With its more than 120 years of history, Borovets is the first mountain resort on the Balkan Peninsula, commissioned by the Bulgarian royal family, back in 1896.
