Bulgarian and Romanian tourists have been predominant on the northern Black Sea coast since the beginning of the Easter holidays in Bulgaria. This was shared by hotel owners from the resorts near Varna in front of BNR correspondent Daniela Stoynova.
Nearly 10 hotels are already open in the resorts "Golden Sands", "St. Constantine and Elena" and "Sunny Day". Romanians are half as many as in 2019. Some hoteliers have begun to cover the costs of the PCR tests of Romanian tourists, which are required to show a PCR test result when they return home.
This measure to attract tourists is being considered by other hoteliers in the country.
