A day out at Cantacuzino Castle brings history to life. Peer up at its mighty walls and dig out your guidebook to find out about its storied past.

Cantacuzino Castle is an interesting place to begin your day of discovery in Busteni. This fortified complex comes recommended by fellow travelers, but it's not the only spot to see here. Allow some time for other attractions like Peles Castle, Sinaia Ski Resort, and Sinaia Monastery to fully appreciate what the area has to offer.

8.8/10 Excellent! (743 reviews)
We stayed in the large apartment which was spotless, had excellent space, friendly staff who were very accommodating with excellent customer service and willing to go the extra mile. We had a fabulous stay and will definitely return again. The spa was supposed to be closed during our stay and they managed to open it which was an added bonus. We were compensated for the loss of the days spa too. Thank you all for looking after us! We loved our experience.

My stay at this apartment was quite comfortable and very satisfying. It's close to shopping, bus line and metro rail. Could not have asked for a nicer and cleaner place.
