Bansko is a great resort for all levels, with well groomed piste. It is less busy than other ski resorts I have been to. Bansko is the most affordable ski resort in Europe, with hotels around £50/night and meals for around £7 pp. I highly recommend. The only downfall is the queue for the gondola. The longest we waited was only 20 minutes but it can take as long as 2 hours.

We stayed in the Lion Hotel which was 10 mins walk to the slopes. Great hotel and food was very good. Different options on different nights. Breakfast was very good too and a great choice to choose from. Slopes were great too and not too long a wait for lifts. A great ski holiday and would definitely go back again

Bansko is a small but excellent ski resort which offers a perfect balance of riding & apres ski. By day the mountains are a vibrant & welcoming place to be with an amazing atmosphere for both locals & holiday makers. With good music and laughter all around. By night, Bansko is a busy town with loads to do from dining & relaxing to sports bars and partying. Will definitely be returning in the near future.

I spent a few weeks in Bansko in January. Conditions were generally okay, not super icy but not a ton of powder either (it snowed twice in the month). I avoided gondola lines by queuing about 10 minutes before opening and going straight to the top. Other than a couple of merge points, I generally had plenty of space on the slopes. The town has a decently friendly and sometimes rowdy atmosphere.

It was my second time skiing and there was lots of runs to suit someone still trying to learn aswell as runs for more advanced skiers we stay in a ski in ski out hotel was really good and was all fairly priced

Not a big ski area but an absolute bargain in cost to go skiing. Food and drink is cheap, ski passes are cheap compared to other resorts and the evenings are lively, full of bars, live music and general fun

Excellent value for money, the runs near the top were absolutely gorgeous however the one long run back down to the town is slush after about 12, really lively apres ski with loads of options and mostly quite cheap as well

I skied in Bansko end of February 24 and there was good snow. We had heard that there are usually long queues for the Gondalo however we never experienced this as we arrived there early around half an hour before it opened and there wasnt really a queue. The only disadvantage is the lack of black slopes. May be more suited to beginner/intermediate skiers

Great value for money if youre on a tight budget ! Weather can be temperamental with not guaranteed snow in winter. A fun resort probably best for intermediate skiers

Really really enjoyed Bansko!! Can't wait to go back! Good accommodation, fantastic skiing for beginners/intermediate and abit for every level really. Fast lifts, minimal waiting Après excellent Want to go back!!
