In February 2022, we visited this hotel. Surprisingly hospitable hosts. Warm and friendly attitude towards the guests, family atmosphere. The hotel is cozy, with excellent breakfasts and dinners, views of the mountains and the city itself. We hope to visit more than once
We really liked the hotel. The hospitable hosts will always help, tell you and, if necessary, conduct an excursion. The view from the rooms to the mountains is wonderful! Of course, there are small flaws, such as instead of a bathroom or shower, only a drain in the floor or a somewhat monotonous breakfast. But you can survive it. And dinner is always a surprise, every day a new second course. The hotel has places for a pleasant evening pastime - a hall with a fireplace, games, books, a large TV, a balcony with tables, swings, etc. In principle, I would love to come again...
A very cozy, beautifully decorated hotel. It is very clean, bed linen and towels are changed frequently. Great location, close to the center and the mountain. The owner Krasimir takes you to the mountain for free, but you can walk. The hosts, Krasimir and Maria, are very kind and welcoming people. We are ready to fulfill any request. The hotel has breakfast, lunch and dinner options. Optional. The food is sooo tasty and inexpensive. I advise everyone!
An amazing hotel! Thanks to the hospitable hosts Maria and Krasimir! It was very sincere, warm and cozy, homely. Always delicious food, clean rooms, willingness to help from the administration. thank you very much! We sincerely wish you continued prosperity!
After reading mostly positive reviews about the Rahoff Hotel, we bought a 7-night tour there from the end of February to the beginning of March.
The first unpleasant situation arose upon check-in - it turned out that the owners had confused and confirmed to the tour operator the booking of one suite room twice. As a result, it was already occupied, and we had to move into a regular room (without a fireplace, small in size and with a hole in the floor instead of a bathtub(!)). The owners could not solve the problem and just threw up their hands, smiling broadly.
Therefore, instead of a room with a fireplace and a normal bathroom (according to the owners, they have only one for the entire room stock), we had to live with a very specific shower, which was a hole in the floor near the toilet and a shower attached to the wall. That is, when taking a shower, the entire bathroom (toilet bowl, toilet paper, mat, etc.) turned out to be wet. This greatly spoiled the impression of the room, which was otherwise cozy and clean.
Cleaning was carried out every day, towels were also changed every day.
By location: 7-10 minutes on foot from the hotel to the city center, about 10-15 minutes to the ski lift. In the morning, the owner drove us to the first lift, or we immediately ordered a taxi for 10 leva per person to the Shiligarnik, since the queues for the gondolas were huge.
By food: breakfast (buffet) - was delicious, but monotonous, but enough to have a hearty breakfast before riding:)
I liked dinner a little less, because on the first day we were offered a choice of both the first (salad or soup) and dessert, and in the following days for some reason or persuaded on what was more convenient for the cook to cook or left no choice at all.
There was no choice at all for a hot meal, which slightly spoiled the impression. Although the food was mostly delicious.
On the last day before departure (and we had to get up at 5:30 in the morning), the owner had a birthday. As a result: dinner was postponed to an earlier time (and it was done in an ultimatum form), leaving about an hour for it.
A banquet was being served in the dining room, so we and some other visitors were transferred from our usual places to 1 small common table (so as not to interfere with the preparations for the holiday). Everyone was fussing, the guests were gathering. Therefore, the dishes were brought in a hurry, they gave some ice cream for dessert, instead of the usual delicious dessert and showed with all their appearance that it was time for us to leave and not interfere)
Then the holiday began with live music, karaoke and dancing / dancing. It was impossible to fall asleep under all this noise. And it lasted until late at night (we barely fell asleep around one o'clock in the morning, I repeat, we needed to insert it early).
At 5:40, when we went downstairs with our things, no one came out to see us off, the lights were turned off everywhere - everyone was asleep after the fun. There was a note on the reception desk ""please leave the keys"" and several boxes of breakfast were laid out, which also left the best to do (a dry sandwich, a long-boiled egg and a tangerine). No water was put in.
Bottom line: in general, if you do not expect some kind of excessive level of hospitality from the hosts, then you can recommend the Rahoff hotel. The main thing is to check which room you have booked and do not get on holidays and Birthdays of the owners (at these moments they forget a little that they have guests).
A cozy and family atmosphere. Friendly, funny and open people. Insanely delicious cuisine and homemade alcohol! Homemade bread, desserts, fruits are all delicious to tears! We will definitely come back! Like Grandma's in the village!
The best vacation in the mountains is when you can have a good time after skiing. A sincere family hotel, where a lot of time is devoted to the guests. Try it and you won't regret it: Maria and Krasimir are the best!!!
