Overview
For the ultimate luxury accommodation in Bansko, look no further than the Grand Arena Kempinski Hotel. Bansko’s only ski-in, ski-out hotel enjoys the best location in resort - opposite the high speed cable car and a short walk from the centre.
This high-quality hotel has luxurious rooms that are impressively decorated and the facilities at the hotel couldn’t be better too – including the state-of-the-art ski room, free kids’ club and shopping boutiques.
Offered on a bed & breakfast basis, the hotel also prides itself on serving a variety of local and internationally inspired dishes every evening from fine dining by the log fire in the Come Prima restaurant to tucking into Japanese dishes in the Sushi Bar and Teppanyaki Grill or savouring themed buffets in the Gallery restaurant and there’s no better spot for a nightcap than the Sing Sing piano bar with live music too. Please speak with us to upgrade to half-board when booking.

About Bansko
A rapidly expanding town, Bansko is 160km south of Bulgaria's capital, Sofia. Set at an altitude of 935m, it is dominated by Vihren, the highest mountain (2,915m) in the spectacular Pirin range, close to the Macedonian border.
The 75km of ski pistes are located in two main ski - centres- CHALIN VALOG (1100-1600m) and SHILIGARNIKA (1700-2500m). They are approximately 10 km above the town on the northern slopes of Pirin, and are easily accessible for approx. 25 minutes on the new Gondola lift which starts from Bansko. For beginners, there is a highly regarded ski school and area to practise and build-up confidence with younger learners having their own dedicated area full of obstacles, slaloms etc.
The picturesque old town is full of charming cobbled streets with a good selection of restaurants, bars and clubs all reasonably priced. The restaurants serve a good mix of local dishes, pizzas, burgers and even British roast dinners! Three museums record Bansko's place in Bulgaria's history and the 500-year old church is a prominent feature, all are worth a visit. You can also try your hand at ice skating, snowmobiling, cross country skiing, bowling, escape room or leisure pool with spa.
