Hotels in Braşov: prices, timing and districts

When to book a stay in Braşov for less

It is cheapest in April and November, between seasons, when tourist traffic eases. It gets priciest in spring and summer, from May to August, when the weather suits hiking in the Carpathians, plus the winter ski season in Poiana Brașov. The day of the week matters: it is usually cheaper on Thursday, while Friday costs the most as the weekend mountain trips begin, so the gap can be quite large. Stays here tend to be longer, around nine nights, as many combine the city with mountain trips.

How much a stay costs by property type

Braşov is affordable, with a wide choice from a cheap guesthouse or apartment to a five-star hotel. One-star properties and apartments are cheapest, while family rooms, ski rooms and top-class hotels cost the most. Below are rough nightly rates for two people.

Where a stay is cheaper or pricier

Guests rate properties in the heart of the old town, near Council Square, the Black Church and Catherine's Gate, most highly, home to hotels such as the Qosmo Brasov at 9.7 or the Radisson Blu Aurum at 9.3, though prices there run the highest. Cosy guesthouses on the edge of the old town also score well, such as Prinz Gregor at 9.3 or Bark Inn at 9.2. It is cheaper and quieter a little way from the centre, around the Aquatic Paradise water park and the mountain approaches, and in apartments a few bus stops from the square. The closer to the old town and the higher the standard, the higher the price. For value, choose the outskirts or a date outside summer.

Which stay in Braşov suits whom

• First time in Braşov. Most convenient in the old town, near Council Square and the Black Church, such as the Radisson Blu Aurum or the boutique Casa Wagner. From here you can walk everywhere and take the cable car up Tâmpa.
• For families. Hotels with family rooms near attractions such as Parc Aventura, the Aquatic Paradise water park or the Libearty Bear Sanctuary. Children will love the mountain adventures.
• For couples. Elegant higher-standard properties such as the Qosmo Brasov at 9.7 or Hotel Aro Palace with mountain views. An atmospheric stay in the heart of the old town.
• For skiing. Hotels in nearby Poiana Brașov, such as the Swissôtel Poiana Brasov, right by the slopes. Closest to the ski runs.
• With breakfast. Guesthouses with a well-rated breakfast, such as Prinz Gregor or Pensiunea Toscana, where guests praise the morning spread.
• On a budget. Cheap apartments such as Main Square Apartments or Casa Roth Apartments and simple guesthouses a little way from the square. The cheapest option, especially in April and November.

When Braşov is pricier

Spring and summer, from May to August, are the most expensive, when warm weather suits hiking in the Carpathians and rides up Tâmpa. Winter can be pricey too, during the ski season in Poiana Brașov and in December, when the old town turns into a fairy tale at the Brasov Christmas Market. April and November are the cheapest and quietest, between seasons. Spring and early autumn are a good compromise, with pleasant weather and lower prices and crowds than in high summer.
