Close to the Rila monastery and to many hikes for a reasonable price. We sincerely appreciated that the owners allowed to keep our luggages from 2 days before our arrivals (we were going backpacking in the mountains). Thank you!

We did not stay at the Alpinist as they were under re-construction work. I'm sure they were aware of this work and rather than a refund they sent us to the other hotel Malyovista opposite.

The property is situated at a perfect location in the mountains and close to a river at the same time. There was a lot of green space which is always great when you want to go for a walk or just to relax. The hosts were also amazing and the food that they cooked was perfect! It was all with home grown vegetables 🙌 and the menu was very healthy and clean which we loved. I would also recommend trying their herbal teas and honey. 🍯 The place is also perfect for those who are into stretching, yoga, 🧘♀️ cold dips 🥶 in the river or just for people who are very nature oriented and are looking for a stress free environment. Would definitely recommend visiting this place! The energy is super positive.
Family Hotel Iskar is located less then 600 metres from the centre of the village of Govedarci and offers a minibus that provides a daily transport to the ski slopes.

When I arrived at the hotel it was all closed up and I had to go around the back of the building to be let in. They did not seem to be expecting me. The elderly man in the property did not speak any English. The restaurant was closed and so no food was available, not even breakfast the next morning. When I asked where I could eat, I was told “Centre” with a wave of the hand. There was WiFi signal but no internet connection. When I later asked a young woman about this, she said “There is a problem in the village” and yet I could get internet access without any problem at another hotel 500 m away. A most disappointing experience. Not as described by Booking.com! It’s a “family hotel” but a colder, more unfriendly place you could not imagine.

There was enough to see at the monastary, even though most museums there seemed no to be open (it was February!). Entrance is free but be ready to pay 5 levs for parking (you do get all day for that).
The area has dramatic scenery with some other things to see other than just the Monastary.
We visited the grave of James Baucher and discovered why Sofia has a station named after this Irishman!

We take all our foreign guests to visit the Monastery.
We take all our foreign guests to visit the Monastery. It is iconic. The parking cost 5 Leva, but there is no entry fee to the Monastery. The two museums in the monastery require an entry fee, but are worth the price. Make sure that you see the clock tower bells that ring on the hour. Behind the Monastery is a little fast food place that sells a Bulgarian treat called "makitsa", it costs 1 Lev and even the Bulgarians will tell you that is the best "makitsa" in the country.

In the warmer months,go early, as in be there by 10AM.
In the warmer months,go early, as in be there by 10AM. Afterwards it gets very crowded by Noon. Avoid the weekends and holidays if possible. There is a 5LV parking fee. Admission is free to the church-no photos inside. There are 4 museums each with a 4 LV charge. The exterior murals are from the late 19th C. The main beauty is the exterior of the church and it's grounds.
The back entrance and parking area is heavily commercialized, however there is a stand there making fresh hot donuts. They are as close to heaven as you'll get!

Check the Internet for Rila monastry.
Check the Internet for Rila monastry. They do have an excellent website.
It is worth the visit. Mind that it is a 30 min drive from the interstate each way. Accomodation quality seems questionable in the area. at least my negative experience with Gorski Kut was horrible.

The tour of the monastery was fantastic.
The tour of the monastery was fantastic. Because we stayed right next to the monastery we were there early do got an individual tour of the ethnography rooms and icon room. Place is a lovely visit anyway but seeing it without the crowds is fantastic. (Go early or stay late!)

Rila Monastery is one of the Icons of the region!
Rila Monastery is one of the Icons of the region! It contains everything: culture, history, nature, religion - you name it!
Unfortunatelly for the surrounding structures - some of them are not maintained very well which need to be improved (this is valid for the roads too). However the region is with Must Visit state for me.

The hotel is located only 4 km far from the Rila Monastery and it is a very nice place for someone to have a good relax. The restaurant is great and their trout soup is really awesome. Clean and quite rooms contribute to your pleasant stay as well.
The hotel has an old communist era hotel feel, but some may find that charming in its own right. Everything was clean, the location is excellent, there is a restaurant on site, with great views of the creek and sunset. The food was very tasty.
Excellent location within walking distance of the Rila Monastery. The reality surprisingly corresponds to the exclusive photos on the website, the hotel is really built generously, with taste and has a great potential, but...
For a 2* hotel has everything you may want. The rooms are clean and big enough for a short stay. The restaurant serves delicious food at reasonable prices. It's the perfect choice if you want to visit Rila Monastery.
