Just got back from Pamporovo, it was our first time skiing and can honestly say it was one of the best holidays we have ever had. The ski schools are great, if you progress quicker than the others in your group you can be moved up or down accordingly. Hotel was very clean, staff were polite and friendly. Food was basic but there was always something to suit most tastes, if in doubt ask the locals they are more than happy to help you pick a dish. The resort can be noisey in the late evenings but this was the only down side. There is plenty to do after skiing, outdoor ice skating, bowling, bum boarding, ringo's and skadooing.

Overall if you are thinking of going skiing for the first time this is a great place to learn.

Pamporova is without doubt the most stunning place I have visited, the people are so polite, nothing is to much trouble, I have stayed in eight different hotels and my experience of these just enhanced the whole holiday, my son and daughter learned to ski at a very young age and are now very capable, the tuition is first rate, some people complain about the food, but try the local dishes, they're super, A word of caution, get your lift passes and ski hire through your travel agents, Its miles cheaper, and quicker when you get there.
