Not in enough promoted hotel. Excellent food (breakfast and a la card). Generally, in Bulgaria people working as waiters are not pleasant and this hotel are not exceptional. Big and clean apartments.

Spectacular views from our room. All employees were attentive and professional. Loved the food in the restaurant and the pool was sparkling. Would love to come back again.

the hotel is very old, the service very poor , almost no one speak English, the bathroom inside the room is very small , and overall I'm not satisfied at all. I stayed for 3 nights and they only fix the beds every day and nothing else , they don't even wash the dishes for 3 days!!!

Comfortable, clean and everything prepared and heat was turned on before our arrival. It's a comfortable place to stay skiing in Bansko. It's about 20+ minutes from the Gondola and there's free shuttle bus. The hotel food was pretty good and less pricey than the places in town.

nice hotel. pool very small and crowded, no towels or flipflops to use. sauna/hamam not in same building as rooms so people have to walk outside at cold weather to go to rooms. Elevators very slow. Kids place good and spacious lot of toys. location is outside bansko need car. breakfast was ok and personel working very friendly. parking easy. free shuttle bus to gondola. Rooms clean warm and spacious. issues: - very small tv and not plugs to charge phones. I had to find to use plugs of sidebed lamps to get some power - checkout problem with double payment hope to resolve soon. - Fridge was not plugged in when arrived.

The Balkan Jewel Resort is located outside the city. It's a 15 minute drive to Bansko with almost nothing in between. So if you don't want to spend your entire time at the resort, you'll have to take a shuttle to the city. The resort is split up into four building, unfortunately they are not connected with an internal walkway. Ergo you have to exit your building to go to the restaurant, the front desk, the gym/massage room/ jacuzzi, etc. Think about that in the winter; you'll have to wear a winter coat just to go for breakfast or pack a bag to go for a massage. We went during the off season. We were in the Amber building of the resort. All the lights in the building were almost always off, so we would have to turn on the lights when we entered/exited the building and our floor. The building was deserted. It's just strange for a hotel. The sole restaurant at the resort isn't very good but it's your only option if you don't want to get out. I regret picking the Balkan Jewel Resort. I strongly recommend picking a hotel in Bansko, around the city center instead.

The hotel was amazing, the staff were very welcoming, friendly and helpful throughout our whole stay. The location was nice and quiet, but the shuttle busses that the hotel offers to Bansko makes it so convenient for a perfect holiday. Easy to get to the ski resort, and relaxing.

Amazing. Everything was perfect.

Everything was amazing. The only bad thing was that on the day when we were leaving the guy at the reception charged us for the bathtubs for the pool. He told us that it is not a deposit, but a charge for using them. Our friends were staying at the same time in the hotel and the girl at the reception returned their deposit for the bathtubs. It was obvious that he is not following the same policy, whether it was for his personal interest or no, I would recommend that the hotel makes sure that employees refrain from such behavior, as our stay was really amazing and it is sad that things like this ruin both the reputation and all the hard work that a lot of other staff put into.

Our stay at the Balkan Jewel Resort was an amazing experience, so relaxing and so delightful! The hotel is very modern, spotlessly clean and filled with all the amenities you need. We stayed at the Amber building and had a marvelous view of the Pirin mountains and our room was very nicely decorated. The room, which was the smallest one offered, was huge, with a large bathroom and a very spacious balcony. The kitchenette is very well equipped and the fridge is quite big. The spa and the newly opened indoor pool are excellent, we used them every day, they were very clean and relaxing! The hotel staff are very friendly and accommodating and an additional bonus to our stay was the free shuttle service to Bansko and other places, which we used a lot. The game room area is very good and we played a lot of pool in the evenings. The hiking trails start at the vicinity of the hotel and there's a golf course just above it. All in all, we can't wait to go back to the Balkan Jewel, which is an excellent value for money and gives you so much luxury and comfort! A big thanks to all the folks who work there, that made our stay so amazing!

The Balkan Jewel was amazing! we loved it. Went in summer to hike in the Pirin Mountains - the location is good for this, but it is very quiet around which suited us (not many restaurants/bars in summer). The room was lovely and great views from the balcony, the staff were really friendly. We had a massage and it was amazing - the guy really knew what he was doing, probably the best sports massage I've had in years and I go often. Only negative was the food in restuarant wasn't amazing, frozen pizza I'm sure, but you have a little kitchen so can just cook your own. I'm looking forward to going back next year!

really good nice and clean hotel!!i would suggest it, especially for family vacations!!you can stay and make you feel like your own apartment!!!!
