Park & Spa Hotel Markovo is a beautifully renewed hotel that has done a fantastic job of blending modern comfort with its original charm. The rooms are spacious, clean, and tastefully modernized, making for a very comfortable stay. The food was also a highlight—delicious and well-prepared, offering a great variety. However, it’s important to note that this hotel is very family-friendly, which means it can be quite noisy, with kids jumping and screaming almost everywhere. If you’re looking for a lively, family-oriented atmosphere, this is a great choice. Otherwise, keep in mind that it might not be the best option for those seeking peace and quiet.

Some of our experience at the hotel was disappointing. We booked a room on the back side expecting a view of the mountains, but instead, we were faced with a large green net covering some pipes—no view at all. The outdoor swimming pool was also under construction, again covered with this green net, which looked very unattractive and not what you would expect from a 4-star hotel. Half of the garden was under construction as well, making the overall view less than appealing. Due to the overwhelming number of kids, we had to book a poolside pavilion daily for 20 BGN just to get some privacy ( not a huge problem). Additionally, the quality of the sunbeds was not up to the standard that the hotel seems to aim for.

The hotel is very child friendly which is what we liked the most. They had special robes and slippers, plus special soap and a lovely bear sponge… great details that made my boys feel like the main guest. The kids Club with animators and many activities for the children was the best and gave us a bit of time to have an adult dinner a couple of times, also, our kids were really happy. The hotel is very lovely and the staff in general very nice. The buffet always nice and big.

I think the only suggestion we have is to check on the outdoor pool, since there were several lose pieces of ceramic in the pool which I stepped on and pinched my feet, my husband got a small cut.

The hotel was great but I expected more according to the booking.com rating. It is indeed great for a vacation with kids - all pools are well suited for kids, the food was great (both breakfast and dinner), with a lot of options suitable for children of all ages, the kids club and special events for kids were very good. The rooms were comfortable, really good mattress and pillows of various density really surprised my demanding back and neck.

The outside premises look really very modest, the territory is not large and not very attractive. The saunas are quite small. But the only real disadvantage was the awful sound isolation between the rooms. I could hear the neighbours' TV and chats so clearly as if they were at my bed. That was a real disappointment and spoilt one of the two nights we had at the hotel. With all other conditions created for a perfect rest this was a substantial drawback.

We liked a lot our stay during the summer season and expect the completion of the repair works as we guess that it will be even more comfortable and with more space for the winter season. Although there was a repair works we did not feel any inconvenience or noise and everything was covered and hidden behind the partitions that was far away from the pool and the other facilities. During the winter you can find warm pools and a lot of fun for the kids and during the summer you can cool yourself in the outside pool and again to have fun and some spa cause everything is working all the time. The quality of the food is also very good and there are a special menu for little kids and babies. You can find also an animation during the day and almost every evening there is a movie night and outdoor activities for the kids. It is expected to extend the place and to ad more services.

I dont remember something to made me a bad impression that particular time.

the kids center was great, clean and well equipped. There was menu for pillows which is a first and has always been a problem for me in other hotels. The staff were all very polite, helpful and professional.

there were couple of colder nights and due to complains from some guests they switched the central air con to winter mode which was only heating. We had to open our room window during the night in order to be able to sleep. There was however a lot of road noise as we were in a room on second floor next to the road. The spa and the restaurant are not organised to support full hotel capacity. Our first night hotel was maybe 70% full and pools were unusable and during dinner and breakfast there were queues forming due to the narrow space food was placed.When the hotel was around 50% capacity all was great

Pleasant stay, various activities to chose from or to relax with. Everything you might need you can find there. Spa facilities and options are not that many, however, the saunas were pretty good. Rooms are clean, spacious and quiet. It's worth getting a big room with a nice view. Room service was quick. Breakfast was nice, lots to choose from.

I'd say the indoor pools are not usable because they are absolutely filled with children. The pools outside are better, but keep in mind non hotel guests are also allowed, so still busy. Food is mid with not much to choose from (on the menu). There is a bar, drinks are ok but not worth it imo.

The friendly staff, the smooth check in & out, kids attractions and kids entertainment program, the food quality & diversity at the breakfast and the dinner, the room amenities for kids.

At Saturday night, it was too noisy until late evening even due to some party people at the swimming pool restaurant. Perhaps guests should follow a strict hotel rule to use indoor and soundproof hotel facilities after 22:30 to enjoy their evening drinks, laughs and singing talents.

The hotel has lots of parking spaces available. Then, facilities are amazing - lots of saunas, swimming pools, spa centres with great massage offerings. Buffets for breakfasts and dinner (dinners are paid for separately). 20 min by car to reach Plovdiv city centre. Overall a hotel which you are not willing to leave due to all the facilities available on site. A selection of pillows to choose from.

I was told the hotel has central A/C system - cannot enjoy a cool room with A/C blowing cold air unless the management decided to turn on the A/C for the entire building.

Great variety of pools and activities for the kids. Modern rooms. Breakfast and dinner were great especially when you can enjoy them in piece after dropping kids at play room.

Lower level balconies city view is obstructed by nearby museum but it's not a major issue. Also parking gets full really quickly. TV experience was very poor because there were mostly Russian channels for kids (not English) and TV was acting strange - resetting video and volume setting (automatically going loud after being lowered).

The hotel is fantastic, even better than the photos, is extremely clean with the most comfy beds! Has lots of activities for the kids, inside and outside! The breakfast had lots of options even fresh pancakes! The buffet in the evening was delicious, everything was fresh and every night had different food and in a very good price! We highly recommend this hotel for family holidays and we will definitely come back again! Thank you very much!
