“A real gem in the middle of nowhere for nature lovers”
The staff-the best in our 7-day trip around Bulgaria. The best attitude of the hosts. The Turkish bath was specially turned on for us. The restaurant was open despite the fact that only 2 rooms were occupied in the hotel. The restaurant had a full menu, the food was excellent. Breakfast-rich and tasty. Another plus-a quiet place in the forest, very close to the ski lift to the 7 Rila Lakes. Don’t doubt when choosing this accommodation.

“Great experience in Rila woods”
We loved the location, it is literally in the woods. Also, the rooms, lobby and corridors were very nicely decorated. The restaurant was also great and the breakfast which was included in the price was very rich and delicious. The staff was great too. Definitely we recommend this place. It is very peaceful :)

“Fantastic location with its own atmosphere, great breakfast, hotel keeper. One of the best places I’ve stayed 🔥”
Location in the woods is amazing 🌳🌲 it’s a quiet place with only forest and a few other hotels around. Close to Rila lakes. No light noise, no cars. 2 super friendly dogs in the yard are waiting to be petted 🥹 breakfast is superb! Also a big thanks to the hotel keeper. We were late for the check in and he warmly welcomed us. And was super friendly and helpful during our stay.
