A gorgeous location in the countryside. The hotel itself is modern but cosy, with lovely views over the surrounding area. The garden is stunning and very well kept. Our room was the perfect size and had a lovely homey feel. All of the staff went above and beyond to make our stay pleasant and memorable which we really appreciated.

A very nice hotel, the room was clean and new, we enjoyed the breakfast! The hotel provided a nice meal outside in the yard for the Romanian National Day (very thoughtful, they do that every year they said) and it was very tasty. The staff very nice and willing to help.

Based on some reviews of Bran (basically Bran Castle and the surrounding area) I expected it might have been a place that could have been dropped from our list of places to visit. Some people say the castle isn't particularly worthwhile. I disagree. If you get past the Dracula theme there is much history associated with castle. It is truly interesting and has inspired me to research the history of the castle and it's occupants over the years. We opted to add a visit to the part of Bran Castle that addresses methods of torture utilized over the centuries. It causes one to reflect on the nature of humanity, to consider how far society had come and also how much further we need to go. All in all this was a very worthwhile use of our time.

The town itself was quaint.

The town itself was quaint. I do not recommend buying admission tickets to the castle. The lines are insane, and there is NOT much to see in the castle. You can actually have a better time walking around the park at the bottom of the castle, and take better pictures. Inside there are many places that you are not allowed to take pics and are closely monitored. So, bypass the crowds, go into the park for free, even bring your pets (allowed in park but not the castle), have a nice cup of coffee from the cafe on the corner (Coffee 5). There is also a really good bakery right next door to the Coffee 5, it's called Mama's *** , and they have wonderful breads and baked goods. These two places also use cards, however, most PLACE ONLY TAKE CASH (RON). If you want the souveniers , such as magnets and postcards, there is a shop at the bottom of the castle, in the park, an official castle shop, they take cards and cash. I don't recommend buying at the market, you can haggle and ask for discounts, but again, cash only and the quality is cheap. You really should head over to Raskov and see the fort and dino land . The forest, walks, hiking trails and large fort with unforgettable views was seriously the saving grace and highlight of the trip. So the take away is this: 1: Skip the lines and DO NOT ENTER THE CASTLE, but stay outside in the park. 2: There is an excellent view point across from the castle, on the hill there is a cross, directly across from the castle. 3: Have coffee at Coffee 5 and buy baked goods nect door. 4: BRING CASH for shopping, except at Penny (supermarket) of verified shop. 5: go to Rasnov...take the entire day. 6: Enjpy the park at the bottom of the Castle, Bran.

It was Halloween and we visited the castle, a very long line...

It was Halloween and we visited the castle, a very long line (only to be expected of course on that day!) but worth the wait. Personally I wouldn’t recommend going for Halloween as the traffic and parking is crazy! Very busy with tourists, generally over crowded. Best to go on a weekday. It’s a touristy destination.

Bran a lovely little touristy town.

Bran a lovely little touristy town. Castle is lovely and has been lovingly restored. Grounds are nice. Town has enough places to eat, plenty of places to stay. The local park is nice. Buses from/to Braşov very regularly- hourly, and cheap.

We stayed for two nights as a base to explore Bran, Brasov and the surrounding areas. We had a large room and bathroom (with a fancy bathtub that we unfortunately didn’t get the chance to try). The hotel is situated on a hill with a view of Bran Castle (Dracula’s Castle). The hotel has ample on-site parking, and is only a 15-20 minute walk from the castle. Super friendly staff. Good breakfast. Very peaceful at night. Se habla español 🇪🇸

We had a room with a view of Bran Castle and that was amazing. Clean, nice decorated hotel with good breakfast, very close to the castle, shops and restaurants. The hotel has own restaurant as well.
