Home description
Fortuna is a five-storied luxury apartment building, located just 200 yards from the Gondola Lift and designed in accordance with the typical architectural style of Bansko using natural materials as stone and wood.

The studio apartment is nicely and fully furnished and has self-catering facilities that are usefully equipped with 21-inch cable TV, Internet connection, kitchen, shower, bathtub and WC.

The apartment comfortably sleeps 4 people: 2 on the folding double sofa in the living area and two on the double bed. All the details are included with tasteful furnishings, such as: iron and ironing board, hair dryer, silverware and dishes, cooking utensils, etc. Spic& span cleanliness is provided by the daily maid service.

Guestbook
30 Sept. 06. Dear Vladie Paul & I enjoyed our holiday very much. When trekking accross to Melnik - which was a lovely walk, meeting the transport either at the village where we joined the road or at the nice watermill hotel is definitely a good idea. Thank you so much for your professional guiding. We shall definitely recommend your kind services to others. Catherine & Paul. 20 Feb. 07. Hi Vladie, Just to let you know we had a great time last week and your apartments were perfect. Although I will hopefully have my own apartment soon, I will always recommend you should the need arise. Regards Barry Sinfield 11-20 March 07: I just wanted to thank you very much, our holiday was fantastic and we both loved snowboarding. The apartment was lovely, and the driver was very helpful indeed. The bar in Fortuna is great and the manager is very accomodating, and the band that plays there are super! Bansko is a very pretty town and the traditional buildings are great, a mix of new and old. We would like to return in December, and this time there will be a group of us. We would very much like to use your apartments again! KInd regards, Emma Brown
