Meridian Centre Hotel - Sunny Beach - Bulgaria

The hotel is extremely impressive to look at, and we found it lovely and clean. Our room was on the 9th floor with a pool view and it was really spacious! The maids came in everyday and the room was spotlessly clean. The restaurant is on the top floor, and quite a lot of people have complained about the lifts at peak times. We didnt have any problems, as we walked the 2 flights of stairs to the restaurant, unlike a lot of other fully able people! The food in the restaurant was lovely. Im a really fussy eater, so always worry when we go half board, but i found plenty to eat on 8 out of 10 of the nights we were there. I recommend sitting outside while you eat if you dont mind heights, absolutely stunning views! Only complaint would be the lack of cutlery! But the staff did their best to sort it when you told them. The pool is a really good size, and we always managed to find a sunbed in a good position. Wasnt too impressed about the charge however, although i have been elsewhere in bulgaria and it is common.

The hotel is slightly outside of the centre of sunny beach, the main street is about a 15min walk. There are plenty of bars and restaurants near the hotel though, but most of them had cheesy local bands on in the evening, which isnt particularly to our taste. We did enjoy the bacardi bar and the cocktails in the mexican bar were amazing! Both 2mins from the hotel. There is a little train which goes to the centre if u dont fancy the walk, although it is costly if you use it alot!! The centre is lively at night, lots of places to eat and drink there. We did eat out a couple of times, mainly due to it being so cheap! Everywhere we ate was lovely, didnt have a bad meal! We had a really nice chinese on the main street, and had lunch at the hotel a couple of days, cheap and cheerfull lunchtime menu! There is something for everyone, and you can find more traditional food if you look for it!

The beach is 5mins walk from the hotel, was fairly clean and the sea was lovely, however we did a runner at the sight of a jelly fish!!! We took a trip to nessebar, was a nice couple of hours walk around the ruins, but there isnt really much there. Would recommend catching the bus there and making your own way around, much cheaper than a taxi or organised tour!! We also went to the aquapark which was a really good day, plenty of slides for adults and kids! there is a free mini bus there from the bus stop as well!

All in all we had a fab holiday here!!!
