site.bta Wine & SPA Complex ChaTony in Darmantsi Expands Operations with New Spa Centre, Additional Accommodation
The owners of the only spa hotel in Vratsa Region - Ariel in Mezdra - will expand their operations with a renovated facility at their Wine & SPA complex ChaTony in the village of Darmantsi, where a spa centre and new accommodations will be built in the family-owned winery this July. The owner of both complexes, Tony Yordanov, told BTA that Ariel is the only one in the region that offers a semi-Olympic-sized pool, various types of saunas, a steam room, a salt room, a jacuzzi, and a relaxation area.
According to him, the pool impresses with a series of glass openings located along its entire length. The openings provide a unique experience by allowing a two-way view to and from the various parts of the hotel complex. An outdoor bar, mountain views, and a spacious rooftop beach area offer a four-star experience to our guests, Yordanov stated.
“We have three massage rooms at the hotel in Mezdra. We have also planned for such rooms in the new spa centre at the ChaTony complex, located in the village of Darmantsi,” Yordanov added. The two complexes owned by the Yordanov family can accommodate a total of 170 people. At the ChaTony complex, the restaurant seats 180 people, while at the Ariel hotel, the restaurant has a capacity of over 220 people, Yordanov also noted. The craft beer production facility is an attraction for visitors to the hotel in Mezdra.
When we opened the Ariel Hotel in 2019, we imagined that there would be greater demand among tourists for spa services, the owner said. "We've provided everything necessary, invested heavily, adapted to modern requirements, and our spa services are very competitive," he added.
His family has been in business for 35 years. They have built a shopping complex in Mezdra and are also active in the construction sector. They have created over a hundred jobs. The Yordanov family have built two churches in two villages in the Mezdra area, and with their help, another church in the municipality has been renovated. They believe that the support of the local community is an integral part of business development. “The best thing that could happen to us after all this effort is for our children to be by our side and for there to be continuity in the business,” said Tony Yordanov.
