Excellent location. Free parking although it s small and busy we managed to find a spot everyday. It s an old communist hotel that s been partially refurbished and exceed my expectation in both comfort and value for money. We had dinner twice and food was good. Not many choices for breakfast. Bathroom is small but functional. Room is clean and very quiet. Overall a good experience. Lady from reception was very helpful and friendly. Olanesti is nice area and parks are very clean.

We booked this holiday in the beginning of the year hopping the weather would be nice, the opposite most of the days were rainy. Good for us the pool at the property was covered so we were able to enjoy the thermal pool each day. The people at the hotel are so friendly we felt like home. There was complimentary coffee, tea and small breakfast each day. The lady that cooks for the hotel deserves congratulations as everything we ate was excellent!

Very hospitable and welcoming staff, willing to help and make your stay safe and enjoyable. We appreciated the opportunity to experience the Spa with different types of saunas and steam rooms, with pools indoors and outdoors. The outdoor bar was open and there were plenty to choose from, including hot or cold beverages and ice creams or smoothies. The rooms were clean and spacious, with TV aerial and access to online platforms such as Netflix or Prime. The food, cooked by Chef Ionut Laba, a competitor in the Chefi la Cutite, cooked delicious fresh food for everyone, even for fussy eaters. Thank you to the kitchen staff and to the restaurant staff for the way they served us with a smile on their faces, even on 40 degrees weather. The dining area was indoors and outdoors, with the possibility to see the beautiful countryside landscape or stay indoors where air conditioning was available. The parking was free and there were plenty of spaces available to use. The bar was 24/7 with possible drinks available late at night. A beautiful location on top of the hill with opportunities to explore and extend your stay.

Ideal for families as there is playground, pool, football/basketball possibilities, cat and dogs(our daughter adored). Owners serve wonderful home cooked food many of what is growned in their farm. Room was spacious and very clean. Not to forget wonderful view around. Beautiful waterfall nearby if you are into nature and hiking. We had a wonderful time and would come back.

It's close to the city center but still the apartment is located in the rural area. The room was very tidy and charming. The photos on booking.com site doesn't show what actually look like. They are definitely much better than it looks on those photos. And you can sit out in the garden in peaceful circumstance. There is a shared kitchen equipped with most of necessary things if you need to cook.

Recommend to visit any of the thermal baths they have there (like the one in Central Hotel in Calimanesti) or the Aqcua Park Cozia. The Olt river has a nice little island, with a monastery on it, worth visiting. There is a nicely arranged path in the forest nearby, very good for a walk in the fresh air of the forest. Nice restaurants, clean streets, neatly arranged.

A nice and cozy city in the mountains, within 1-2 hours drive to multiple ski resorts (Transalpina Ski or Paltinis). The city has all the facilities of big cities, but is small and not crowded. You can spend time in restaurants, coffe shops or malls, or you can go to different spa resorts that are near by (within 15-30 min of driving).

Nice tranquil small mountain town.

Nice tranquil small mountain town. I like it best during the autumnal season when nature develops lovely shades from light green to yellow and brown to reddish. You can take long walks on along the Olanesti river, up to Comanca monastery and natural water springs. Don't miss out the quick train voyage up to the lotus lake. (have cash with you to pay directly - 15 Ron) and the wooden church Saint Pantelimon.

The place is underrated, has so much potential. While I traveled many times through it, I never stopped for more that a few minutes. But I discovered Rm. Valcea as a clean, cozy and pretty well structured city. It definitely deserves at least 3 days of staying to discover its secrets.

In Romania, the word Băile implies a spa town.

In Romania, the word Băile implies a spa town. The most famous spa towns in Romania are Băile Herculane, Băile Felix, Mangalia, Covasna, Călimănești & Borsec. Romania has hundreds of non-descript small spa towns - few of which get overseas visitors. Băile Olanesti is not one of the grand Spa Towns - but is one of the many far smaller affairs with old communist era hotels and guest houses and a certain amount of dilapidation in the surroundings; witness the ruined hotels, broken windows and crumbling pavements. In the days before locals could travel far they were important holiday destinations for the workers. In summer they still fill up with local families on a cheap break. The swimming pool with its water slides is packed to bursting and the evenings brings everyone out to promenade the streets, meet, smoke and have a drink. In July 2024 Băile Olanesti was packed full and busy - even if the big hotels had spare room. So why come here? Well I stayed above the spa town, in a village called Pietrișu. Take a look at the clip from Google Maps to see why - it is at the end of the road (actually a mud/earth/loose stone track) that leads to huge beech forests and a few scattered farms. The place was peaceful - precisely because it was so hard to reach even with your own car (the single track road is a challenge to a 4x4) with masses of wildlife. My experience of a month's travel in 2024 is that many of the nicest places we stayed were like this - hard to reach and certainly left out of even the backpackers' guidebooks.
