This is in a great location to visit Rila Monastery. The rooms are basic but very clean. The host was responsive and gave us an extra fan when we requested one. A tasty breakfast was included. They have a restaurant with a full menu.

Spent the night there while travelling on my motorcycle. The winding road through the mountains is a treat.
The food was excellent, Pchelina's restaurant is well recommended! Served a wonderful dinner and a simple but tasty breakfast.
They kindly allowed me to park my motorcycle inside the courtyard, behind the gate, which meant I could skip the hassle of taking all the luggage off the bike whilst feeling safe.

What a fabulous stay in the Light Peace Love Center. It was the perfect place to reconnect with nature and myself. Positive vibes, serene atmosphere, and comfortable rooms. The host, Georgi, went above and beyond and delivered not only delicious meals but also lots of life wisdom. Truly a unique place. Will be back first chance I get.

There was enough to see at the monastary, even though most museums there seemed no to be open (it was February!). Entrance is free but be ready to pay 5 levs for parking (you do get all day for that).
The area has dramatic scenery with some other things to see other than just the Monastary.
We visited the grave of James Baucher and discovered why Sofia has a station named after this Irishman!

We take all our foreign guests to visit the Monastery.
We take all our foreign guests to visit the Monastery. It is iconic. The parking cost 5 Leva, but there is no entry fee to the Monastery. The two museums in the monastery require an entry fee, but are worth the price. Make sure that you see the clock tower bells that ring on the hour. Behind the Monastery is a little fast food place that sells a Bulgarian treat called "makitsa", it costs 1 Lev and even the Bulgarians will tell you that is the best "makitsa" in the country.

In the warmer months,go early, as in be there by 10AM.
In the warmer months,go early, as in be there by 10AM. Afterwards it gets very crowded by Noon. Avoid the weekends and holidays if possible. There is a 5LV parking fee. Admission is free to the church-no photos inside. There are 4 museums each with a 4 LV charge. The exterior murals are from the late 19th C. The main beauty is the exterior of the church and it's grounds.
The back entrance and parking area is heavily commercialized, however there is a stand there making fresh hot donuts. They are as close to heaven as you'll get!

Check the Internet for Rila monastry.
Check the Internet for Rila monastry. They do have an excellent website.
It is worth the visit. Mind that it is a 30 min drive from the interstate each way. Accomodation quality seems questionable in the area. at least my negative experience with Gorski Kut was horrible.

The tour of the monastery was fantastic.
The tour of the monastery was fantastic. Because we stayed right next to the monastery we were there early do got an individual tour of the ethnography rooms and icon room. Place is a lovely visit anyway but seeing it without the crowds is fantastic. (Go early or stay late!)

Rila Monastery is one of the Icons of the region!
Rila Monastery is one of the Icons of the region! It contains everything: culture, history, nature, religion - you name it!
Unfortunatelly for the surrounding structures - some of them are not maintained very well which need to be improved (this is valid for the roads too). However the region is with Must Visit state for me.

I stayed there for a night with my parents. Lovely family hotel; small but clean rooms, great customer service.
Worth having dinner at the restaurant, fresh and tasty. Breakfast was perfect. If I go back in the area I’ll definitely stay there again.
The staff was friendly and one spoke English. The location is beautiful, very close to the Rila Monastery and good restaurants nearby. The hotel feels like it has great potential, or perhaps once was a nice hotel... but has deteriorated massively.
Room was big and the hotel has the best location in the middle of the mountains. Also the personal, specially the two young ladies, are superhelpful and do the best they can with the little resources the hotel apparently has.
