The hotel is generally fine. Position less. The terrible thing I encountered was the reception manager's service, which at our request of another key to the door, he shouted at us that we had to pay for it. he said that we had already received two keys, when we received only one. It was embarrassing, unpleasant and unworthy.

Great aquapark

The aquapark is big, the pools are warm enough, but a few buttons for waterfalls are not working, still great. The staff was very kind. They offered an apartment for us, but we prefer two rooms, because the apartments are in the next building and it is not so convenient to go to the pools from there. We need to change one of our rooms for the second night, not a big deal, but still little unpleasant. Overall, very nice stay.

Wonderful hotel

Me and my mum really loved this hotel, the staff and its facilities. As it was a low season, we seem to have the whole place to ourselves. The heated swimming pool outside made of rock where we stayed for hours, the spa with its saunas and the big two bedroom apartment we shared with my friend. Everything was very clean and luxurious. The staff was very friendly and welcoming. We had a late night flight so they allowed us to check out later than usual. We were on our vegan challenge but still found plenty of good food from the buffet as well as the menu. Overall had a very positive experience and even a tan. Already planning a new trip there. We rented a car and it was about two hours drive from Sofia but the journey was enjoyable due to great landscape. We also did a day trip to Greece that is an hour away.

Fabulous holiday!

Our second trip to the Astera. It was just as perfect as our first trip first trip 2 years ago. I wouldn't stay anywhere else in Bansko! It's a short walk to the gondola and in the nicest part of the town close to the edge of the Pirin Forest where there are some great walks. The hotel is great value for money and we love it! Just a fabulous holiday all round. Looking forward to next year already!

Well situated but rooms disappointed

My general impression is that this hotel is closer to a three star in terms of experience but achieved a four star ranking based on range of facilities. We stayed for 4 nights. The hotel is well-situated in town for access to the lifts. There are numerous facilities including outdoor pool (slightly dirty) and sauna and indoor pool. The staff were mostly helpful. Our room seemed dusty, beds were two singles pushed and made together not a double as advertised. Beds were not comfortable and heating / air con seemed to increase dust. Some of the furnishings were repaired by being stapled together. Literally. Bathrooms however were good. Breakfasts were good, dinners were ok.

excellent spa, but no more!

Room in the main building, 1 bedroom apartments. Rested 2 adults and 2 children. In the living room a horrible sofa - bed for 2 people. Back aching every morning. The room does not have the battery. Dry clothes and ski boots after skiing anywhere. Rooms overlook the smoking area for staff. From morning until late at night listening to loud noises that interfere rest. Not working phone in the room! To order food in the room had to go down to the reception! From the good: - An excellent spa center. Kids really like. Because of him we choose this hotel not for the first time. - Quite decent food for breakfast and dinner. - To the ski lift 10 minutes at a slow pace.

Ski Trip

The positive part of this hotel is (1) its location, near to all shops and restaurant. The negative part of this hotel are (1) Some of the hotel staff at reception desk is very unfriendly and unhelpful. She is giving guests the look of unwilling to help when I approached her to ask the location of a restaurant and money changer; (2) there are two buildings, the one given to us is a 14 years old building, so room is old and desperately needed to renovate it to bring up to a 4 star hotel standard (it was stated as a 4 star hotel); (3) Beds are too soft, easily caused back pain if you sleep on them too many nights; (4)Breakfast and dinner provided in the restaurant are horrible. I ate some on my first night, too salty and meat are too tough. At the end, I only eat salad and fruits for the rest of my stay. Variety is ok but quality of the food is not up to a 4 star hotel standard. (5) Before I left for holiday, I was given information by the hotel staff that Euro is acceptable in hotel. However, when I checked out and needed to settle some bill, the receptionist told me only Bulgaria Leva is acceptable. At the last minute, I need to rush back to money changer in the town to exchange some Leva. It is not acceptable that a 4 star hotel provides incorrect information to guests.
