We stayed at the hotel from 10-17 March and had an unforgettable time. The hotel was clean and well kept. Our room was well equipped and had a lovely view over the mountains. There was a large cancellation before our arrival which meant our group of 9 had more or less had the run of the hotel and the undivided... More

I am so pleased that you enjoyed your stay with us; we really enjoyed welcoming you to Bulgaria. We do hope that you recommend us and come back again. I have considered the option of Buffet style breakfast on numerous occasions, but having studied the bacteria growth on food sitting up-to two hours and never tasting fresh is not what... More

I was amazed with Bulgaria, it was not what I expected, it was so much better, the 5* Pearl Lodge didn't go un-recognised for making this trip one to remember. What a place, it's more like a home suited to your needs in a different country on your stay. I stayed here with my sister and parents whilst skiing and... More

I went to this 5* hotel on a Ski trip with 8 friends and thoroughly enjoyed it. We only left the hotel 2 out of the 7 nights because we were kept well entertained and in good company! The owner, Amanda/Mary was a highlight! She made sure we had everything we needed and treated us with amazing hospitality. She had... More

We stayed at Pearl Lodge for 7 days in a group of 9. Our apartment was extremely comfortable and spacious. The hotel includes a daily breakfast with a good selection of hot and cold items and the evening meals were a delightful 3 courses every night. The location is very close to the main ski piste and one can ski... More

I would (and already have) recommend Pearl Lodge to anyone. Whether its a ski holiday, summer mountain break, or just to get away to relax Pearl Lodge can cater for anything. The hotel is massive and worthy of its star rating. As the previous reviewer mentions (stayed at the same time), the place it really made by its lovely owners,... More

It was the same when I presented you with the birthday... More

This was our first holiday together as a couple, and it was a really lovely break. We usually ski in the alps, but chose Bulgaria this time, as we felt it might give more value for money.. and indeed it did. Pearl Lodge was a lovely place to stay - and the owner, Amanda Mary, really "makes" the place. She... More

We are a couple in our 40's and stayed at the Pearl Lodge for a week from the 6th March with the All Inclusive ski package via Deal Cloud. The hotel, run by Mary, is new and clean with most facilities anyone could expect or want for such a stay. It is somewhat isolated from any other 'life' but the... More

We stayed here during the February half term on a snowboarding holiday using a group on voucher. It's quite a tricky review to write as we had a bit of a mixed bag of a stay! Some aspects of our trip were fantastic, others pretty awful. We'll start with the good stuff though... To start with in terms of value... More

We stayed at the Pearl Lodge in February 2012 together with friends. We have two children, 11 and 12 years old. We travelled from Norway via London to Sofia. Because of the hours bus-journey from the airport, we recommend to travel to Plovdiv airport as it is closer to the destination. The Pearl Lodge is a very nice hotel with... More
