The purpose of our trip was skiing in Borovets.
The purpose of our trip was skiing in Borovets. Samokov was a good value alternative to Borovets as we had a rental car. The drive between the two is very easy 10-15 minutes.
There is some nice traditional restaurants in Samokov and much better value than the restaurant in the Borovets resort. If you don't mind staying outside of Borovets this is a good option to save money.
There are 3 big supermarkets next to eachother in Samokov, Lidl, T market and Billa so you can get everything you need if you are self catering.

Close to Borovets, but quieter and more traditional. Lots of lovely restaurants serving local and european dishes at great prices. You cant always recognise a restaurant from outside as they look just like normal houses (not in the town centre, no menus outside, no windows looking out on to the street to see through, so best to check online or ask advice).
We had a nice walk through the town centre with it’s statues and fountains, parking on the street was fine and very quiet at noght.

We were visiting friends so we had a reason to go out of skiing season but still manged to get into the beautiful mountains around Samokov - the town itself is quite busy with everything you will need - the people are friendly and helpful which made us feel safe wherever we were

Samokov is a short drive to the ski resort of Borovets and if you prefer not to be in the bustle of a ski resort at night there are plenty of restaurants. Whilst we we there it snowed all week but I could imagine that in the summer that there are some lovely parks and walks nearby

Lovely bulgarian town, busy market there to look around, good bus route to it from Sofia.
Can also get the bus to Borovert for about 2 levs.
Lovely old buildings to look at, lovely swimming area in the town for in summer and good big food shopping places. The younger people speak some form of English, but there nodding for yes and shaking for no is the other way so can get confusing. Worth a visit.
Stayed here for a long ski weekend in Borovets. A nice modern hotel. Really good value. I wouldn't really complain about not getting breakfast, as for the money we paid, it was just an added bonus. Close to some nice retaurants and a 24hour supermarket, which you can purchase most items, including food, very cheap. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend this hotel to anyone wanting to stay in Samokov.
It was clean and modern.
A very clean, well-kept, you could even say, cherished property. Everything is done with love. The host is very nice, responsive, and friendly. It felt like we are a family. The house is in the central part of Samokov, on a quiet street, next to a Non-Stop convenience store, and a quick run away from the main street with its three supermarkets. We rented it to be able to cook, and drove to Borovets for skiing. Everything worked out very well.
Very comfortable, warm and spacious. Great for our family of 4 (2 adults and 2 children). Kitchen area was very clean and there is a supermarket next door. Lidl also very close. Free parking. Borovets is a short 15-20 minute drive. We parked in Borovets for 10 lev a day, right next to the piste so it was very easy with the children getting going in the morning and returning at the end of a good days skiing.
Room is perfect, the little garden with tables and bbq facilities is great, location is close to 2 of the best restaurants in Samokov.. but what makes the difference is the owner Hristo who will go above and beyond to make your stay as comfortable as possible. He also has a ski rental office in Borovets and he is a ski instructor so you really don’t have to worry about anything :-)
We arrived late at the hotel due to snow .The host open his tavern for us even though it was Christmas and we enjoyed a wonderful dinner. The location is perfect for going to the ski resort nearby just 10 kilometres away and with half the price .Thanks for your hospitality .
Very nicely renovated flat in samokov. Kitchen was well stocked and had everything you needed to cook simple meals. A baby crib was provided for free and the host communication was very easy.
Very well positioned rooms and three bathrooms which makes it easy when you have 5+ people on the property at once. Big back yard and plenty of space for four vehicles to park in it.
lovely place to stay while skiing in Borovets. Close to shops and lovely restaurants. Lovely jacuzzi bath in the room and a warm welcome from the host. would definitely return.
Big, comfortable house with a lot of space for big gatherings of people! The house has all the facilities for making a perfect dinner party! Very convenient location!
Clean, comfortable and great amenities. Very welcoming and attentive hosts. Close to local shops and restaurants. Short taxi ride to skiing in Borovets.
