Overview
The modern Hotel Rila is a great all-rounder for your ski holiday. It's in a prime position, at the foot of the nursery slopes, opposite the Martinovi Baraki chairlift. If you fancy exploring the town, you’re just a short walk from the resort’s many restaurants, bars and shops. Or if you’d rather stay inside, you can spend the evening with a view of the slopes from the Terrace Lounge, or else cosied up by the fire in the Champions Lobby Bar.
The spa here is extra special. Head for a post-piste splash in the big indoor pool, or relax in one of the two hot tubs. For an extra charge, there’s also saunas, a steam room, cryo cabin, Turkish bath and relaxation area – plenty of space to indulge. A popular choice with families, little ones are well looked after too. The hotel runs its own nursery, ski kindergarten and kid’s entertainment, and there are several game rooms too – that's your off-slope fun sorted.
Breakfast and dinner are both served buffet style, with a great variety of dishes to choose from every evening. Book a table at the à la carte Restaurant Samakovi – it's a gourmet affair here, with an excellent wine selection to match.
