Where to stay in Apriltsi

Great place, but with 2 cons: 1. Insufficient hot water in the bathroom, despite the solar collectors 2. 1 liter of mineral water - 4 BGN, maybe because of the lack of an alternative where to buy it nearby. Small but important notes!

Super hotel complex! We spent the New Year holidays here. Accommodation conditions are good. Clean room, warm and has hot water. The restaurant and service were also up to par. Delicious food. The staff is top. If possible, I would also visit during the summer season, there is a swimming pool and the place is nice.

Nice pool. Cool, but better than next door

Beautiful place, perfect service, wonderful pool. Amazing cuisine. Smiling and polite staff...

Very, very, very nice place. With lovely food and perfect view, with nice and kind services. Definitely recommend 🙂

The food was great. Everything was tasty and worth it in the region.

Lovely place with beautiful garden and great views into the mountains. Excellent food and really sweet and helpful family that put a lot of love and work into this little paradise. We feel lucky we found this place.

The hotel is very pleasent. The whole staff was very polite and prepared breakfast in advance having in mind our early wake up at 6:30. Will suggest the hotel to friends for sure and will come again.

Perfectly located as my base for the climb/hike to the nearby Mountain Botev and the peak. The Hotel had everything that i required and more, the room was very comfortable, spotlessly clean as was the bathroom. Breakfast and dinner was very tasty and inexpensive. I'm very satisfied with my visit and will stay again in the future.

Good place. The staff was some kind of distracted and not so on point when serving.

Great view to the mountains. Delicious local food. You can feel the spirit of ancient times inside the hotel. Next to the park. Pets friendly. Hope to visit it again this summer. Thanks for the great food and service.

Great comfortable hotel near the river and between the mountain of Apriltsi in Boulgaria

Lovely hotel and restaurant. Staff was friendly, nice garden, clean rooms ... :) I recommend this place!

The hotel definitely needs a refresh asap. Also rooms are quite cold. But! Food in the restaurant is homemade like in my grandma's house, people are super polite and make you feel comfortable, view is fantastic... Having bad experience with so many places with horrible service and bad kitchen during the last couple of months, I really could close my eyes about the old school ambient.

A magnificent view of the Balkan mountain. Breathtaking memorable experience, even from the rooms windows. The hotel is quite old and had been going a neverending renovation. There is a swimming pool, also under reconstruction. The food is OK. Pricing is as expected for this type of accommodation.

Not the best place to stay but it's fine for a quick holiday. The bathroom is really cold. Bring warm clothes in the winter. No dining available, we had to search for the nearest restaurant.

Its a family hotel with really sweet and polite owners. There is a breakfast included in the price and it’s usually homemade banitza, pancakes (delicious) or smth else. The view is amazing! Perfect for relax. Our room had a balcony and the bathroom was completely renovated.

I never take the time to rate places but wow this hotel deserves it. The hotel is really peaceful and the view incredible. Rooms are basically but nice. But the most important is that the family running it is the nicest I've ever met ! Always here for you. Going out of their way to help you. Had 2 amazing days there. Thank you

This indeed is a quiet place. Located away from the main road and on top of a small hill the hotel also opens a great view towards the Balkan mountains and the magnificent Maragidik peak. The hosting family is very nice and hospitable. Rooms are clean and tidy. The food in the restaurant is homemade and tasty. We enjoyed the stay here and will return again soon

Great hosts, food and nature. The view to the mountain is unique. Recommend this place for all kinds of relax.

Great family hotel in very beautiful and quite place. Explore the magic of the Balkans!

Great place with amazing food and great atmosphere. The only small issue was that the staff wasn't really keen on giving the guests a good experience they are nice people they just lacked the good positive attitude

Really nice experience and tasty food, homemade sausage was amazing and with very original taste! Only cash payment possible and no English menu.

Decent food overall, nice atmosphere, the service was OK. I would only point that we ordered fries which were pretty oily. The waitress said there was nothing wrong with them, but the person who ate them had stomachache afterwards.

Delicious traditional meals and ambient, along with perfect customer service. Totally worthy if you stay in the beautiful village of Apriltsi or nearby

Friendly staff. Amazing atmosphere. Great people. Tasty food. Local music -amazing.

Good cuisine, folk music and dances, the best place in Aprilci

General nice atmosphere and a good hotel, great mountain view

Great location,warm atmosphere,very kind stuff,clean and spacious rooms and apartments.We enjoyed our stay very much and plan on coming back next year.There’s so much to do locally,especially if you like hiking,horse riding or just a dip in the river.The hotel provides breakfast and there’s a wonderful restaurant on the side of the free car park.If you fancy a swim ,there is a beautiful pool on site...

Nice big beds. Humongous actually when you are single in a double room. The food wasn't as good as expected. Didn't even look appetizing. All in all subaverage.

Visited the hotel 12 years ago for the first time and then again in August 2019. (+) Excellent location - smack in the center of Apriltzi (+) Easy booking - over the phone, no deposit and no cancellation fee (+) Enormous twin bed (+) Parking (+) Room with balcony overlooking the swimming pool (for a slight up-charge in the room price) (+) Friendly and welcoming reception and breakfast staff. (-) The...

The food is not as good anymore. Bed serving as well

A very nice hotel, the staff is friendlyfriendly with attention to details. Restaurant food is great .

Good and cheap place for your holidays

Good location, friendly staff, superb home-made food!!!

Great place! The hotel is lovely and clean. We thank Laura for her wonderful attitude and care.

Nice place with cozy and comfy rooms. Especially good when pool works

the staff is a bit clumsy :) but the sweets there are excellent!

The place is great and located in one of the most beautiful spots in the mountains with crystal clear air and breathtaking view. But the real gem of the stay are the hosts! Thank you! We will definitely visit again.

Villa Verbena is a renovated old house offering no-frills comfort and convenience. It is situated on an old forest road along the Zla Reka river in the foothills of Central Balkan region at an altitude of ~650 m. The rooms are tastefully furnished with en-suite bathrooms; every room has a book shelf with a selection of titles to read. There is parking for 8-10 cars. It is a family affair run by two...

I recently had the pleasure of staying at the enchanting Villa Verbena in Apriltsi, Bulgaria, and I must say, it was an experience that exceeded all expectations. Tucked away in a remote and idyllic corner of the world, this hidden gem offers a retreat like no other. Upon arrival, I was pleasantly surprised to find that the road leading to Villa Verbena was far from the daunting obstacle some reviews...

Wonderful hosts and spectacular setting. Absolute hidden gem. We went for a very long hike and got lost, ended up being 4 hours away from our car with no busses or taxis. The host was super nice and came to get us.

If you are looking for a remote location, in the middle of the forest /mountains, with great hosts, great food (just accept what they are offering for dinner, you will not regret it!), great rooms (do not expect 5 stars Hilton' style rooms, but very clean, big room with big beds) and great courtyard, this is the perfect place in Northern Bulgaria. If are about 100 km radius of this location, it's worth...

Quiet and lovely nature, the hosts are very polite, the food was great.Relaxation 100%

.A hotel located in a beautiful and natural location. A postcard view of the Balcan mountainsi from the room, poolside and restaurant terrace.

Nice place due to it's view and location. It was clean. What I disliked was the small size of the bathroom and the fact that they didn't have any covid measures in the restaurant. Balconies are not fully separated so you can see and hear your neighbors which makes the whole magic of the place a bit uncomfortable.

A bit shabby, but the view is marvellous. Food is simple but fresh and plentiful. It's very quiet and there are plenty of nature hikes and walks in the vicinity, though it's best to hire a car to get to them.

Good rooms @ a good price. The food though, especially the lunch menu, is bad and extremely expensive. For example, the cucumber in the shopska salad (5+ leva) today was probably from an old salad - was already transparent and smelled like it stayed cut in the fridge for a long time.

The place is great. The hotel is middle level. The staff - quite unfriendly. Cleanliness - not good enough. Facilities - limited. Restaurant - poor.

Great guest house! Unique view! I recommend!

Best quality and service, unique location with picturesque view, of the nearby mountain hills, locatef over the river. Strongly recommend for everyone, especially groups.

One of the best guest houses in Apriltci town. Prices are good. Can bring your own food and drinks or you can eat in the guest house. Menu is sufficient. Salads , grilled or cooked meats and sometimes locally sourced foods are offered like venison, rabbit , wild boar but that depends on the hunting season.

Hosts are very nice and friendly. The rooms are clean and spacious. Nature around is beautiful and just at the step of the door.

For people with allergies, especially small children with severe allergies, IT'S AWESOME THAT THERE ARE NO PETS ALLOWED!

Very nice place in a very nice area. The yard is well maintained and it is well suited for children. The people are very friendly. The amenities are ok, nothing that one can miss but nothing fancy, more basic but good. The food they offer is good and there a choice from menu for each day. Very good overall.

It's quiet and peaceful, great for relax :)

The house and adjacent barn/bar are beautifully renovated and decorated with all traditional touches. Kalin was there to receive us and show us the house. There is no doubt that he invested his heart in it, thinking of every detail and preserving all old elements integrating them into amazing furniture and finishings, a real work of love and art!. Location is extremely beautiful and scenic. One...

This is my favourite place to stay in Bulgaria! It's located in a very small village in the mountains of central Bulgaria with incredible views and a lot of peace and quiet. I love the traditional feel of the main house and it has all of the amenities that you could need, including WiFi. There's also an additional studio now available for 2 extra people so you can rent the entire guesthouse for 7 people...

a truly magical place made with love and lots of hard work. the closest you can get to nature and yourself. we can’t wait to be back again!

This is the perfect self-catering accommodation to stay in if you want to have a quiet retreat surrounded by nature, but have easy access to some popular tourist attractions in the area. Everything was spotless, the kitchen was fully equipped and even came with local food products to purchase, and the big fireplace was a great addition! We'd love to come back again in the summer and visit the many...

Most magical beautiful place and setting. We stayed with 4 of us in Karashka. We totally fell in love with the place. It is a tastefully restored house to a high standard with fine details while keeping the authenticity of an old mountain farmhouse.. during our stay in February we had unexpected high snowfall which got us snowed in. We absolutely loved it. Plenty of firewood, fresh water from the mountain...

Our stay at Karashka was the most magical and fulfilling of times. On day two of an intended four day stay we were blessed by a great deal more snow than had been predicted and this house, with its impeccable details provided us with warmth, beauty, comfort, peace, and access to a way of being close to nature that is rare. Over two days of being cut off from telecommunications, electricity, roads and...

Amazing spot, pictures don't do it justice! Extremely clean, convenient, has all necessary amenities and beyond! The best part were the hosts - made the whe group feel like home. We are definitely coming back for the one of a kind experience!

Almost ideal service: close to the center, on the road to Troyan; space for cars in the yard; the employee is responsive; the pool is clean but cannot be watched underwater, entertainment for children. Notes: the floor of one bathroom is not made properly and there is Wi-Fi only in the front house.

Amazing place, wonderful Hosts! Very clean, authentic interior and cozy atmosphere. Highly recommended! We'll be back for sure ❤️🥂

What a great place! Clean rooms, excellent amenities and great location! The hosts are really kind and friendly! We highly recommend !
