The Pines Bucegi Lodge

Wonderful location with amazing views. Close to many excellent nature/hiking areas. Hotel is new, modern, well-equipped but small enough to feel familiar. Staff are genuinely nice. Mariana the massage therapist and nature-hike tour guide is charming, and gives amazing massages. Hotel is very clean. The attached restaurant Spice is very good. And Robert was a charming waiter.

Some slight maintenance issues that were quickly corrected. Lack of elevators/easy access for people with disabilities. While the breakfast was good, there was a large difference between our first breakfast and the one the next day. On the second day there was a conference at the hotel and the breakfast was excellent. On the first day, we were just a few guests, and breakfast while still good, was a bit lacking in variety and quantity. One couldn't escape the feeling that for the large conference group the hotel went that "extra mile", though not just for the "standard" guests.

Minunat! Un loc unde te poti deconecta!
