Co-living: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I've been in this coliving for several months, and I like it so much that I consider it my true home. From the moment I stepped in, I was greeted with warm welcomes from both the staff and residents; the management has put an incredible effort into creating a welcoming and inclusive environment organizing events and activities, ensuring that the space is always clean and well-maintained and being there for everything their guests need. The location is amazing: 15 minutes walk from the gondola through the main street of Bansko, Pirin Street, and 5 minutes away from the city center. The rooms are cozy and comfortable, with a desk in every room for people who need more privacy for work. The internet speed is great both from the rooms and the common spaces, which are well-designed, spacious, and well-equipped with everything you need to work, relax, or socialize. Whether you're looking to cook a meal in the kitchen, watch a movie in the lounge, or work on your projects in the shared office, this coliving space has got you covered. This means of course I would highly recommend this coliving to anyone looking for a comfortable, affordable, and welcoming home away from home. It truly is an amazing place to live!
Restaurant: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Once per week, there's a curry night: the food is delicious and the buffet is huge and you can eat as much as you want. The management frequently organizes other events such as ribs night, Venezuelan night, cocktail night, and rum tasting... Never been disappointed, the quality of the meat and veggies are superb, and the choice of cocktails and liquors is refined. James will explain the details of what you're drinking, sharing and transmitting his passion for high-quality food and drinks.

The one and only coliving in Bansko

This place was recommended by friends when I was planning to stay for a month in Bansko. I'm so glad I went for it! James and Danny made me feel at home (which is so valuable when you're a nomad constantly traveling). The place is very clean, and the co-living guidelines make it comfortable and easy to live with the other guests. Avalon has a cozy living area, an awesome well equipped kitchen, and a charming outdoors area. The private rooms are perfect: well lit, quiet if you need to focus on work, and spacious. The location is central, and in a quiet and safe street.
If you're looking for the best co-living space to fully experience Bansko the digital nomads' hub, then definitely go for Avalon.

Home away from home

"He's an eternally happy soul, isn't he?".
It was a throw-away observation about one of my fellow guests from James, one half of Hotel Avalon's marvellous management double-act, James and Dani.
Without pause I replied "Yes, there's quite a few of us here aren't there?"
And that got me thinking... Everyone wants to be happy, but it seems so few people genuinely are... For any period of time at least. Myself included.
But everyone at Hotel Avalon has been happy. Sure, the hotel is sited in a mountain wonderland. The food is great and the beer is cheap. There are log fires and friendly dogs, but it goes deeper than that.
Happiness abounds here. This place feels like home and that is to the total credit of James and Dani.
Our job as guests was easy. We just had to be
picking up what they were putting down, feeling what they were dealing, drinking what they were thinking and jiving what they were conniving.
What they've created is special and I'll miss it.
Till next time...

Feels like home.

Avalon is a great place to haul up for a month or more while exploring bansko. James and Dani help you out with great advise, lovely food and a occasional trip to the hotsprings. 30m to the mountains and only 2 hours to the greek beaches.

weekly family dinners are a highlight

James and Dani will make you feel welcome and very comfortable during your stay.
My wife and I regularly reminiscing our time at the Avalon in Bansko and often miss it and plan to return again in future.

Best Co-living in Bansko

Avalon is such special place - James and Dani immediately make you feel at home from the moment you arrive. They have built an amazing co-living space, with attention to detail ensuring you have everything you need for a comfortable and productive stay. They are wonderful people, and their hard work and love shines through with Avalon and the community they have built in Bansko. The rooms are spacious and we'll laid out, the kitchen has everything you could ever need and during winter the fire is constantly roaring. Curry night is also a weekly highlight not to be missed!

Best place to stay in Bansko !

The food here is amazing. We had a few of the Indian gakeaways and a ribs box and both were a different class. Clearly the chef here knows his trade. The price for the quality was unreal. Definitely recommend.

Fantastic takeaway food

What could you possibly expect from a hotel being run as "just a hobby"? I have been stranded in the high winter of freezing cold Bansko for over two months due to Covid restrictions, without possibility to go home. James, the owner, has turned away multiple long-term booking inquiries, so I could extend my stay by another two weeks, then another week, then one more week, then some more days, until I could finally go home. To make me feel better with the nuisance of the uncertainty of my situation, James kept inventing bogus laws presumably forbidding him of kicking out a guest in need due to "the Corona situation". Seems to me more like some real medieval British chivalry B.S! Apart from running the hotel James has more "hobbies", most prominently: cooking and baking. About his famous curry and ribs nights you can read elsewhere (this is how and why I came to Avalon in the first place). For my critique of the complimentary baking see attached photos. For the price of two nights in e.g. the f***ing Kempinski Hotel Grand Arena (a mistake I made), you could stay one full month in Avalon. This includes heating, so its about half the price of renting and heating your own apartment. And indeed my room in Avalon was the single place in Bansko where I was not cold. I even had to turn off the heating at some point, and it was still literally the warmest I had. My only issue while staying there was that there was no microwave. So James bought a microwave. What could you possibly expect from a hotel being run as "just a hobby" indeed? You can expect it to be your home <3

If you must stay in Bansko, this is your best option.

As we are in Bansko for a few months, weve tried many establishments takeaway offerings. We have twice had the curry deal from Hotel Avalon and noth times it's been spot on. 
Ordering is easy, as is collection, staff (owners I think) are very polite, it tastes great  and is fantastic value for money. 

Thanks very much...looking forward to the next one👍

Amazing Curry

As usual James and his team are excellent hosts .  They organised airport transfers , ski hire , restaurant bookings and are alway on top of the skiing info . 

With soup and cake post skiing ,  and great local knowledge, you can’t go wrong.
