Guest Reviews
- VASILEIOS (10/5): Ο Μίτκο και η Μαριάνα καταπληκτικοί οικοδεσπότες. Θα ξαναέρθουμε του χρόνου πάλι ελπίζω! - Υπέροχο πρωϊνό και κοντινή απόσταση από το κέντρο
- Mónica (9/5): -
- Milchev (10/5): -
- Tanja (10/5): Sve preporuke! - Domaćini su vrlo gostopriljivi, ljubazni i komunikativni. Objekat je izuzetno čist, topao, sa ukusom opremljen. Najviše nam se dopao kamin koji uvek gori, hrana vrhunska, uz sve to da se gost moze upusti u svakom pogledu te reči. Toplo ga preporučujem i vidimo se uskoro 😊
Pozdrav iz Srbije Nema toga...

- Moshe Chaim (10/5): - Perfectly Clean, Super Cozy, Best Location
- Thea (10/5): Cosy and sweet - We had an economy room booked but Dimitri upgraded us to a room with a balcony top floor and the views of the mountains were spectacular. The breakfast was delicious. The room was clean and cleaned everyday and towels were also changed. Dimitri and his wife are nice and friendly. The house is cosy. And it is also only 15 min walk from everything you need for skiing. We will definitely come again!

- David (10/5): O oprire senzationala in Bansko - The cabin is very beautiful, very well arranged. Everything is done with good taste in the style of the area where we are
I appreciated the impeccable cleanliness of the entire building, not just the room.
The staff was a 10. They called us before arriving to tell us that they were waiting for us at the accommodation to give us the key. They asked us if we wanted them to heat our outdoor bathtub because it was cool.
We will definitely return to this accommodation. Thank you for everything! The shower in the bathroom of room no. 7 did not have the best drainage system and you could wet the whole bathroom. But with a little care everything is ok. This is not an impediment for anyone.
Maybe in the future an anti-slip mat would be good.

- Evangelos (10/5): Exceptional - One more time everything was perfect. The stuff I s very friendly and the room always clean. Thanks for the free room upgrade!
- Marius (10/5): Second time there, I loved it! - I had a double room and when I got there I updated to grand suite, which was amazing. It was my second there. The family is really nice, I had breakfast everyday, which was very good. Just what you need before going skiing. It's warm all the time in the house, except during the day, when probably they lower the temps a bit. But after 5 pm until the next morning it's very warm. You can find parking on the streets, it's very quiet, no loud noises, the road was recently renovated. Nothing

- Alexandra (10/5): Wonderful stay in a beautiful friendly little guesthouse - Breakfast was amazing and great value for money. Dimitri and his wife were so friendly and welcoming. The fire was always lit and the rooms were lovely and warm, comfortable and clean. We would definitely stay again. Nothing we didn't like, everything was excellent!
- David (10/5): Zigen a great quite family clean hotel. - Very friendly owners.
Very clean and comfortable.
Needs modern electrical upgrade to do thing like charge mobile phones with USB wall sockets. The kind owner did lend me an adapter but dedicated standard USB wall chargers would be a great advance. I had to ask for tea etc. It used to be in all the rooms next to the kettle but no longer. Hower ever i was shown where to get the tea etc in the breakfast room.
The breakfast has significantly inceased in price whilst the available chioice gas also been reduced since I last stayed. Still a great family chalet styje hotel.
- Giovanny (10/5): Exceptional -
- Kostic (8/5): Very good -
- Milica (10/5): Amazing - We absolutely loved the place.

- Brucebridgestock (9/5): Superb - Very helpful owner and family, we were very late arriving and one of our group was unwell. Dimitar helped store our bikes safely and enabled a late check out for our ill friend. Comfortable apartment, good breakfast. Bit tricky to find as the name outside is in Bulgarian Cyrillics and does not directly match the name on Booking.com. But this is a minor problem, the stay at Zigen House was very good.
- Nebojsa (10/5): Exceptional - This is probably the best place I ever booked using this website. Apartment was amazing, room was large and very clean. Owners were great and very pleasant and they even gave us free room upgrade. Next time I am in Bulgaria I know I will book same place.

Great breakfast, don't miss it! No such thing!

- Katrina (9/5): The owner was lovely - very friendly and warm despite not speaking much English - would recommend -
- Mehammet (10/5): We loved our host. They were really sincere, warm and kind. We would definitely love to visit again -
- Mariu (10/5): Excellent place and excellent hosts - I had a very clean and warm room, with a balcony, big bed for two people, hot water all the time. Everywhere in the house it was clean and beautiful. we had breakfast there and it was delicious. The owner even has a special room for ski equipment so you won't have to carry them in the room, and the ski boots get dry there. The location is in a very quiet area. About 15 min walk to the Gondola. Nothing
- Todor (8/5): Very good -
- Ioana (10/5): Excellent - Great view, lovely house, friendly host, delicious and plentiful breakfast, very clean rooms.
- Chantell (10/5): Charming, welcoming family guest house - My brother and I had the most amazing week staying at Zigen House on a snow trip. The owners went out of their way to make sure we were happy and comfortable. We stayed in a two-bedroom suite that was so homey and clean. Usually, I prefer more modern decor but the style of Zigen House is so charming - especially the fireplace in the dining area. We also used the sauna twice while staying and really enjoyed it.
- Enzo (10/5): Exceptional -
- Silviya (10/5): Exceptional - Good location, great breakfast. We got free room upgrade to amazing studio. The sauna was paid and pretty expensive.
- Sergey (9/5): Excellent stay! - The hotel exceeded our expectations.
It is small, family place, very cosy, well-maintained and clean.
It has restaurant with good breakfast, which costs extra, but is worth it. Having it non-included in price is actually good because our room had a kitchenette (kettle, microwave, dishes) so we used it the other day to make own breakfast.
Nice mountain view. Modern large bathroom with hot shower and good water pressure. Very warm! maybe too warm to my taste.
Spacious room, enough furniture.
Enough parking on a street nearby even at X-mas season.
Overall - very nice stay for not a lot of money even in a season. Minor: 4th floor, no lift, lots of bags. Well that was 'penthouse'. Other rooms are probably more accessible.
Strange pillows, may need replacement.
The bed was squeaky :) so maybe some fixing is needed here.
- David (9/5): Superb - We stayed for 3 nights and had a very good time. The room was nice, served its purpose. Outdoor area was lovely, breakfasts tasty enough, and the owner was very friendly, polite and helpful, always tried to make us feel comfortable and wanted. The location is a bit off which was just what we wanted - easy car access to leave Bansko while still close enough to walk to the town center. Excellent value. If I'll ever visit Bansko again I will likely come back here.
- Joy (7/5): Pretty property - Good staff
Fridge and kettle in room
Welcome drink Bit far away from anything but in quaint area
No aircon
- Jelmer (10/5): Exceptional -
- Joanne (10/5): Exceptional - Lovely house, friendly host. We were given an upgrade so we had a huge studio. The view is magnificent. It's a several block walk to the centre but no issue as we had a car. Substantial breakfast.
- Yosif (10/5): Exceptional -
- Jeanne (10/5): Great family Inn with exceptional breakfast and lovely rooms - This was a lovely family Inn, quaint and homey. The rooms were lovely and well appointed, the hosts were friendly and helpful. The eating area and outside were lovely too. Close to things in town. And breakfast was terrific! I really enjoyed my time in Bansko and would highly recommend this place.
