Hotel Description:

Close to the beach and at the centre of the resort, the Riu Helios encompasses everything that is good about Sunny Beach. The interesting architecture of the hotel involves two connecting semi circles incorporated into an attractive park setting. The arched structure of the park building gives the impression of a wave which adds to the over all sense of tranquility and reminds you that you are always close to the sea and the beach.
