We had a really nice time spending a night in Pensiunea Select. We were traveling through and needed a "last minute" accommodation after our previous one was suddenly cancelled. I would like to highlight the service: all the hotel staff was really nice, kind, and helpful, and they spoke good English! The place itself feels a little retro, with dated furniture and room interiors, but everything was clean and working properly, so no complaints on that front. Our room had a fridge and TV, with separate bathroom, and some amenities provided. The price also included a choice of 4 breakfast menus, which seemed really appetizing and quite rich in traditional calories! :) (I really like retro-ish hotel breakfasts, and this was right up my alley!) Unfortunately, they do not cater to special diets, meaning to gluten free or vegan options are available, but as we were about to find out in the coming days, this can be said generally about the whole of Romania in 2024. The only real concern that I may bring up is that the hotel is at the outskirts of Alba Iulia, and it took a few mins to get to downtown by car. In return, we had free parking at the hotel, and a nice, quiet room, so overall, this is not a real complaint. In the end, I could only recomment Pensiunea Select, especially if you are traveling through, or want to check out various places in the area, and need a base with great service, a quiet night's sleep, and...

It is nice, but with great rooms and comfortable beds. A very place to crash if you want also a decent price. To reach the city is very cheap by taxi. Also the restaurant is very good and it has a good food variety – prices again very decent. Breakfast is pretty poor, but I wouldn’t expect more to be honest considering the price paid for the room. It has its own parking, supervised, so you can leave your car there and take a taxi to the city if you want to try some restaurants,...
Read moreWe found ourselves looking for a place at the last minute after changing our travel plans. I wasn't sure about this location, but most other places had already been booked. The location isn't great. It is not in the town, but close to the main road in an industrial area. The staff, however, were friendly and the room was large and clean. The free breakfast was not a buffet (you chose from a wide variety of options), but it was delivered fast and it was tasty and filling. The price was very affordable, so I consider this a value if you aren't concerned about being in a...
