The complex is beautifully located on the side of a picturesque hill, facing the Snejanka peak, the ski tracks, as well as the nearby star observatory in Rojen, and the southeastern slopes of the mountain.

In February 2005 the Bulgarian Parliament voted the Pamporovo resort to be a tourist area of national importance. The main benefit here is that the beautifully natural surrounds will be preserved intact with very little residential construction being allowed.
