Petar Zahov, General Manager of the Katarino SPA Hotel in Razlog, reported notable visitor interest originating from Israel, Greece, Romania, and North Macedonia. While the hotel’s primary clientele remains Bulgarian, Zahov noted the growing demand from international markets. He stated that this international interest reflects both sustained regional demand and established brand recognition across the Balkans and the Middle East.
The Katarino SPA Hotel was recently ranked first among the top ten five-star mountain hotels in Bulgaria for 2025, marking its second consecutive year at the top. This ranking utilized the HotScore™ index, which assesses guest reviews and ratings from over 1,200 hotels nationwide. The hotel has accumulated several accolades, including recognition as the best four-star mountain spa hotel in 2020 and the best four-star spa hotel offering local cuisine in 2022.
The hotel’s spa centre provides comprehensive thermal and relaxation facilities, with complimentary access for guests. Amenities include indoor and outdoor pools heated to approximately 34°C, a cave-style jacuzzi, a salt room, and various saunas (Finnish, Kiva, and infrared). Additional features encompass an aroma and panoramic steam bath, a laconium, adventure showers, a tepidarium, and a panoramic relaxation area.
Beyond the facilities, the spa offers specialized treatments, including hydrotherapy options like flotation and Cleopatra baths, alongside massages ranging from classic to deep-tissue. The hotel caters to diverse needs, including stress management, recovery, and preventive care. The spa area continues to expand, highlighted by a new outdoor pool with an infinity jacuzzi built in 2023, reinforcing its commitment to a complete wellness experience.
