It may be because its just a few minutes walk from the gondola. Or that the Happy End Bar and Pub also a few minutes walk away. Just look how convenient this accommodation is.





Or the fact that the ice rink is just a minute away along with shops, ski/board hire, bars, mehanas and cafes.

Or possibly because the apartments to rent here are large, and very well furnished.

Or the spacious bedrooms, with plenty of storage. Or the contemporary Bulgarian art works and photographs.

But most of all its a place to stay that comes recommended by previous guests. Why is this accommodation deal unbeatable? Quite simply we want you to come back again, and again like others.

That is why we guarantee that if you find something of similar size and location we will match the price! Can't get fairer than that.

Imagine such comfort and convenience at such a low price. You can afford to come to Bansko and stay here.

In fact, MY RECENT INTERNET SEARCH REVEALED that a two bedroom here is less than a one bedroom at some others which are over 900 metres away from the gondola!

Bansko apartment to rent -100m from lift

Sorry to disappoint you, but the Bansko apartment to rent, 100metres from the gondola, does not exist and never will.

The only time you'll get within 100 meters of the gondola entrance is by staying at the Kempinski Grand Arena (about 52 metres) - from ski store door to gondola.

Metres from lift is now easy to verify, you simply go into Google earth and use the ruler function at the top. For many rental apartments you cannot walk as the bird flies, so you will have to add up the distances for each straight stretch you actually can walk - if you want to be really certain!

I make this point because the distance exaggerations are huge. Its happened to me in a resort in Vrance, I arrived at a hotel with the unwelcome surprise that the advertised 400 metres is a 1,000 or more metres. As I wanted a comfortable stroll to the lift, I was disappointed.

Most Bansko owners, as well as past visitors, reading this will have come across this issue. One Bansko hotel, called villa Roka, was advertised on a web site as being 550 metres from lift. Its not, its 1,500 metres from lift down near the traffic lights.

So my post today is to expose the untruths about distances from the gondola but also to confess to my own innacuracy. a quick measure for Mountan Residence 3 sees its a 270 metre walking distance not the 250 metres as advertised. In part, the reason that there are so many errors, is that the distance to lift is one of those things that once others set the standard you then feel as if you have to copy it. To be fair, these inaccuracies were often started by the developer when putting the original property details together for the development sales.

We can excuse the 30 metre margin for error, but not over 60 metres which is the quite normal, and often a lot more. I could even possibly excuse the "mistakes" if the measure was "as the crow flies" distance, or even to the car park of the gondola, but not when we see so much variation from the reality.

For some skiiers/boarders who dont want to take a bus, their Bansko accommodation must be less than a five minute gentle walk to the gondola. Why not type Bansko into Google earth and identify the building? You will see many are marked with their development names or photo links. If not, ask the owner or rental agency to identify your Bansko apartment for you.

My final word is for a campaign for a definition of distance for Bansko apartments quoting "metres from gondola". Comments from renters and owners on what constitutes a fair definition would be very welcome.
