"The location is perfect for hiking; spa facilities are really nice (even though we were there is high season some steam baths and saunas were closed so it got really busy in the afternoon); view from the restaurant is amazing."

“This mountain hotel, a prime base for tackling the Malyovitsa peak, strikes me as a solid choice for active families. I particularly appreciate the ski-to-door access and extensive spa, although reports on restaurant food quality are mixed. The family-friendly amenities, like the kids' club with its monitored cameras, make it an easy recommendation.”
