103 Degrees Hotel & SPA takes its name from the temperature of the Sapareva Banya geyser — the 103 °C jet that makes this little town unique in continental Europe.

The spa and the water

One of the newer hotels in town, it pairs contemporary rooms with a full-service spa on the ground floor: a mineral indoor pool, sauna, steam bath, a treatment menu and a fitness centre, topped by a rooftop bar with a whirlpool and relaxation deck. It draws on the same hydrocarbonate-sulphate-sodium water as the rest of the resort — alkaline, fluoride- and silica-rich — traditionally used for the musculoskeletal and peripheral nervous systems and for skin conditions. The modern feel and the rooftop set it apart from the town's older properties.

Who it suits

Couples and travellers who prefer a sleek, recently-built spa hotel — with a rooftop soak and a strong breakfast — over a traditional balneo complex.

    Ideal mini vacation

    Well, the geyser itself (visible from the hotel) is actually kinda broken and slightly disappoined me, but the water that it serves to 103 degrees hotel is above expectation - especially for those that love everything 'hot'. Totally recommend for 2-3 days stay but for longer period - not sure if there is enough to do in Saparyeva Banya itself
