Reviews of Raven's Nest - The Hidden Village, Transylvania - Romania

Beautiful houses and excellent restaurant.We had a great time there. So relaxing and peacefull.

The music in the restaurant was not really our taste. We would have liked some Romanian music and not trendy soft club music to be honest. But It did not matter that much

The location is superb, the facilities are great and the whole experience is unique.

The food really dissapoints. I understand that it’s difficult for them to establish a complex restaurant in the middle of the mountains, but eating duck and prawns in the Apuseni Mountains fells a little off, especially for a menu curated by a chef. It’s a shame that the chef didn’t choose a more creative menu to keep the atmosphere of the spot.

Absolutely stunning location! I loved everything from the room, to the facilities, to the food and the staff! Everything has absolutely exceeded my expectations. The staff is fantastic, I had better service in the restaurant than in most of the fancy city center places, the food was incredible, and the breakfast was probably the best buffet I’ve had from all the places I’ve visited. The room was cosy while it kept the rustic style, and the views are breathtaking! I loved every minute I spent here and I really didn’t want to leave this place at the end of my stay.

There is absolutely nothing that I could complain about.

Location, accommodation, restaurant

The only thing I didn’t like is that it’s not adults only, and if you happen to be accommodated in the same cabin, the peace and quiet can turn into something else 😁… However, the staff solved the problem in our case.

Everything. I highly recommend the Spa at the sunset, it's marvelous

Raven’s Nest is an absolute gem! From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by their warm hospitality and genuine care for every guest. The food was nothing short of amazing — every dish prepared with such attention to detail that you can taste the passion behind it. The location is just perfect: beautifully tucked away and hidden from the crowds, yet offering breathtaking surroundings that make you feel like you’ve discovered a secret paradise. Every little touch here feels thoughtful and intentional. Can’t wait to come back!

The only reason why I gave it a 9 is because we didn’t have a chance to try the spa while we were there, we should have stayed longer🫣 I would add a sign along the way to make it a bit easier to find for those driving. Thank you for everything Raven’s Nest and Sable Cuisine!

Amazing remote place in the middle of the nature with a good balance between traditional and comfort.

The ceiling was so thin you could hear every step and sound from above. If the guest above you are children or they go to sleep very late, you are bound to stay awake and listen to the noise.

Just loved every detail of this place. So quiet, amazing views, great places to relax throughout the village and the restaurant brought perfection to our stay. Amazing food, coffee, wine and attentive staff

Really remarkable property. Far from everything so this is a perfect silent location, we only heard the cows. The staff was professional and nice, very helpful from the beginning until the check-out. Wonderful view for the viewpoints as well as from the wellness area. The room was authentic, clean and in case of double room there was a community space. The restaurant / breakfast / cocktails were really good, the whole concept is 10/10.

Nothing to mention.

This boutique hotel is located in the mountains, offering breathtaking views of the surrounding landscape. The cabins have been beautifully reconstructed – not exact historical replicas, but with a creative, almost fairytale-like charm that fits perfectly into the Transylvanian scenery. The restaurant is good, though I found the “fine food” concept a bit too modern and styled – a little more authenticity and simplicity would have made it feel more grounded. Still, that’s a high-level critique. Overall: A wonderful place to unwind, enjoy nature, and experience a unique blend of design, peace, and Transylvanian spirit. Highly recommended for a few relaxing days away from it all.

It would be helpful to have a info sheet with things to do…like nice hikes, caves, waterfalls etc. Just a small detail, but it would really enrich the stay.

The stuff, the food, the fact that the village is so authentic. A must if you visit Romania.

The property is unique. Huge area with viewpoints, chill zones. Fairly limited number of rooms for guests so you can enjoy nature without disturbing others. The breakfast is rich and delicious. Sable is a fine dining restaurant, so be prepared for its prices, but the food and service won't disappoint you. The cherry on top is the unique experience of sitting in a hot tub on the top of the mountain with a splendid view.

Minor thing, and we totally understand it, but the rooms have very limited space to put your luggage/clothes.
