Piscul Negru Hotel

When planning to travel along the Transfagarasan Highway, we immediately knew that we wanted to spend the night there. Our choice fell on the Piscul Negru hotel. It is located in the southern part of the road, in the valley below the main ridge of Fagaraszy. Nice room, reasonable price, playground for children, large parking lot. We definitely recommend it for one night.

Pensiunea Patricia

After leaving the mountainous part of the Transfagarasan Highway, my wife and I stopped overnight at the Patricia guesthouse in Oeşti-Pămînteni. Very nice hosts who run an on-site restaurant serving delicious Romanian food. The guesthouse has a small swimming pool and a pleasant garden. The room was ok. We could easily spend 2-3 nights there, not just one.

Pensiunea Colt de Munte

We found the Colt de Munte guesthouse by accident while looking for a place to stay overnight after leaving the mountains in the evening. And it was a very good choice. The guesthouse is located in Corbeni. It has a beautiful garden with a shelter, under which we ate breakfast the next morning. Comfortable beds, clean bathroom, hassle-free check-in and check-out, and low price. Advantages only!
