Ivana Palace Hotel

So we arrived and was welcomed by a bellhop who took us to our apartment. We had a bedroom and living room and the bathroom had a deep bath with shower over and double balcony. The views weren’t great, air conditioning unit and trees hanging over but we weren’t in the room much. My daughter had a pile of 3 mattresses with a quilt sheet and pillow for her bed, she didn’t mind but some might have issue. The pool wasn’t the cleanest but it was swept clean of leaves and always a sun bed despite prats leaving towels then going out for the day! A separate kiddies pool was available. The food was, well it was sustenance and typical of most Bulgarian breakfast services. Most restaurants were cheap and good food, the one just around the corner on the Main Street being an exception.. only went once and didn’t finish the meal. Overall compared to other hotels I’d been to here in Bulgaria I’d go again to Ivana Palace it was worthy of my hard earned money for the week and well placed for the beach and peace and quiet.

This hotel is a lovely hotel with a lovely pool area a pool bar and a lounge bar staff in both are really attentive. The room we had was very spacious but we had a view onto the street and across to friends bar/restaurant. The restaurant in the hotel is to be avoided at all costs, we were there for three weeks on a half board basis and after a week we decided that enough was enough and went out for our dinner but unfortunately on our way back I tripped over and fell and tore my calf muscle so for the next two weeks we had to eat in the restaurant the food was always Luke warm and for three weeks the menu never changed with the exception of rabbit was a choice everyone either complained or ate out complaining fell on deaf ears as nothing changed.
