Five Good Reasons to Book in 2025
The best location
200 meters from the house where Vlad Dracul was born (the model for Count Dracula)
The Clock Tower Museum and Scholar’s Stairs are a 5-minute walk away.
A 10-minute walk will take you to the Târnava Mare River, which is wonderful for sunset hikes.
Design that combines old and new
The structure still has 15th-century Saxon architecture, but it now has smartroom technology like USB hookups and LED lights.
Local touches: rugs made by hand and woodwork from Transylvania.
Great on-site dining at the restaurant Cavalier offers:
Transylvanian tasting menu (taste the venison papanași)
Pair Romanian wines with food (ask for the Fetească Neagră).
There are fresh kurtoskalacs (chimney cake) in the breakfast buffet.
Health and relaxation
Indoor pool with views of the fortress
Salt treatment sauna (a terrific way to relax after a day of sightseeing)
A exercise center featuring Peloton bikes open 24 hours a day, seven days a week
Hilton’s Unique Style of Hospitality
A warm welcome with a DoubleTree cookie (a guest favorite!)
Staff that speak more than one language and know the city’s best-kept secrets
