IUC is one of the few higher schools in the country which have their own study and training facilities. The students in Hospitality management can receive practical training in restaurant Albena on the third floor. The restaurant’s kitchen is also used as a student training facility. The dining hall seats 150 – 200 people. Therefore, the kitchen, the dining hall and the bar provide real life environment for traineeships, which helps students master the niceties of the profession.

Besides restaurant Albena, IUC operates facilities in the summer resort of Albena (bistro Academica and eight hotel rooms), entertainment complex Summer theatre in Dobrich (2 restaurants, cocktail bar and barbecue, 10 hotel rooms, and an outdoor theatre with 2,000 seats). The complex Summer theatre, located on an area of 6,000 sq. m., is in the Town park and about 5-minute walk from the school’s building. IUC manages the facility after signing (in 2002) a 25-year concession contract with the Municipality of Dobrich. It has proved to be an excellent place for traineeships in hospitality and marketing. The outdoor theatre is often used by students as a venue for various events such as happenings, parties, concerts and discos.
