Home description
Welcome to the Luxury Living!
Our apartment is situated in the 4 star luxurious hotel-apartment, Grand Montana (next to Lion Hotel), only 400 meters from the lift station gondola of Bansko and it opens an extraordinary view to the peaks of the Pirin Mountains. We are lucky to have this view as so many other apartments are being built side by side. The old town of Bansko is also only 15 minutes walk away, a prime location. It has easy access to all amenities including excellent restaurants.
Our apartment has been individually designed and furnished from Ikea, instead of a hotel package. We are proud of the high standard quality of our apartment and we have ensured that it has a cosy, homelike feel to it so our guests to enjoy it as much as we do.
The apartment is ideal for small families with plenty to see and do during the day. We highly recommend the massage service in our hotel as well as the seafood restraurant in the hotel, they will do special for the kids meal individual, just ask.
