    Incredible Views: The double room provided breathtaking mountain views that made me feel like I was on top of the world. It was like waking up to a real-life postcard every morning.

    Great location with beautiful views and peaceful surroundings. Conveniently close to tourist attractions such as the Vidraru dam and Poenari castle. the staff at the restaurant and terrace were extremely friendly and accommodating. the rooms were clean, cozy, and well-maintained, offering a comfortable and relaxing stay. the affordable meals at the restaurant were delicious, especially the pancakes. Greetings to the friendly and playful dog too!

    It can be a bit challenging to find the place without proper signage or directions on Google Maps. Limited parking space during busy times, it would be helpful if some spots were reserved for hotel guests.

    The room at Cabana Zimbru Transfagarasan was absolutely perfect for us. We loved the cozy and homely atmosphere, especially the private entrance that made us feel like we had our own little haven. The balcony was a great place to enjoy the breathtaking mountain view and soak up the fresh air. The private bathroom with a shower was also a huge plus.

    Honestly, there wasn't much we didn't like about this place. If we had to pick one thing, it would be the cable TV.

    We were pleasantly surprised by Cabana Zimbru Transfagarasan. The staff went above and beyond to accommodate our vegetarian needs, even though it wasn't on the menu. They were also incredibly thoughtful and accommodating towards our 1-year-old child. The location, surrounded by beautiful nature and away from light pollution, provided us with a breathtaking view of the starry night sky. The nearby restaurant served delicious food at reasonable prices, making it a perfect stop along the Transfagarasan highway. we highly recommend this hidden gem.
