Surrounded by forests, mountains and tranquillity, Hotel Arkan Han is a charming rustic property with welcoming staff in the Rhodope Mountains near to the town of Trigrad and the Trigrad Gorge.
Hotel Arkan Han’s amenities include free WiFi, an equestrian centre next door, country-style rooms and a picturesque setting. Homemade bread is served in the hotel’s restaurant, along with local specialities such as buffalo yoghurt and the local ‘yellow’ cheese. Enjoy musical entertainment in the bar or on the terrace when the weather permits, and there’s an area for barbecuing outside too. The hotel is just 3 kilometres from Trigrad.
Bulgaria’s mountainous south-west and south-east regions are home to one of Europe’s richest butterfly faunas. We search for exciting rarities and endemics that include Frivaldsky’s white-banded grayling and Higgins’ anomalous blue, and expect to enjoy superb views of raptors.
