Zara Hotel

Πολύ καλό δωμάτιο, η πισίνα πολύ καλή εσωτερικά. Μικρό το τζακουζι. Άψογο δείπνο και πρωινό και καλή εξυπηρέτηση. Γενικά σε πολύ καλό επίπεδο η διαμονή μου. Είναι περίπου 15 λεπτά από τα μαγαζιά του Μπάνσκο σε μια ήσυχη περιοχή χωρίς προβλήματα..

WARNING 🛑 Big scam! Fake description with clear lies! 1- There is no wellness included in the price! 2- no gym or fitness center just a small store room for two completely damaged machines! 3- the most important! Extremely bad tread, rude and arrogant supervisors and managers and if you try to look for your rights they’ll try to kick you on the street and 100% no refund! they even dared to call us to threaten us over the phone!

An amazing holiday for the price, loved all the facilities, the barman was very helpful and would stay open until we were finished. great place to go for an affordable ski holiday. The staff were very smiling and friendly. The rooms are very nice, very clean. Our room was big, with mountain view. The Spa facilities are clean and there is everything which you can enjoy. Free shuttlebus to gondola several times per day.

Not very clean, average food, average, unorganized and disinterested staff, unorganized parking lot, the spa area is outdated and very small (the pool is really small and the water in the jacuzzi not very clean, they have 2 saunas and one of them was not working), they don't really have gluten free options ( we asked gluten free & vegan and all they could provide was some gluten free bread), the rooms are large , but the bathroom is outdated ( they still have shower curtains) and is not very clean! From a 4 star hotel I would expect more!

We booked this hotel pretty last minute. It was our first time to Bulgaria and we turned up knowing that it was cheaper than holidays in The Alps but had a really good week and liked visiting a new country. We were told by our rep that we were one of the first to stay at Hotel Zara with Crystal Ski. This made sense as when we tried to research reviews before booking, there seemed to be a lack of reviews from the UK. So main points, hotel lovely on arrival, great location with a very regular shuttle bus to the gondola. I would ask for a room on the back of the hotel due to noise from the road in our room. I would also have upgraded to an apartment or slightly larger room with hindsight but the room was clean enough, warm, comfy beds, hot shower, robes in the wardrobe. Feedback for the hotel would be to add spa slippers to walk down in - pack flip flops as a tip for future travellers. The TV only had one channel in English, so we had MTV on in the background when in the room. The pool, jacuzzi, sauna and steam room are great after a day on the slopes. If I was being picky then the steam room floor could be a little cleaner. We went half board and only saw to add the half board option onto b&b last minute. I think it worked out at about £45 pp for all dinners to be added on for the week! Would definitely recommend. I’m not going to lie, I had low ish expectations for the food based on what other friends had said about their trips to Bulgaria skiing (everything being covered in dill) but there was so much choice at breakfast and dinner that we were very happy eating there all week. Breakfast had loads of Continental options, yoghurts, cereals, fruit, an egg station, omelettes, bacon etc. Dinner had loads of soup, pasta, chicken dishes, pork etc. Something for everyone. Traveller trip for me would be bring a reusable water bottle and coffee flask to fill up. We liked Bansko, thought the resort had plenty of bars and restaurants. The ski area was fun and I liked the ski road down in the sun at the end of each day. We booked a trip to spend our last day in Sofia. Would also recommend this. It just made sense to us as we like to see cities and would have felt like we were waiting around for our evening flight on our last day anyway.

Perfect 3 star hotel for a long weekend skiing. Clean rooms, comfortable beds, good simple food, nice pool. Staff very welcoming and helpful. Really good value. I admit I was nervous about staying here as there were no recent reviews and previous reviews were not so complimentary but I needn’t be worried, the hotel was perfect for what we needed
