Located on the main square of the town of Asenovgrad this
two-star hotel offers discount prices and reasonable
accommodation. It is only 15 kilometers from Bachkovo monastery
and 20 kilometers from the city of Plovdiv. The hotel rooms have
satellite television, telephone and private washrooms.
Half-hourly buses speed between Plovdiv and Asenovgrad. Train
and bus terminals lie on the northern outskirts, from where it's
a short walk through a park and across the river to a modern
town square. Two church spires are visible on the hill
immediately above: the resplendently ochre-coloured Sveti
Dimitâr on the left and the smaller Sveta Troitsa on the right.
The local historical museum holds Neolithic and Thracian finds -
including a fine bronze helmet and the iron wheel rims of a
Thracian chariot.
