Reviews for Bran Castle

Terrible

Product: Bran Castle

We drove to the castle and found reasonable parking just a 2 minute walk from the castle- inside expected the castle to be busy but it was surprisingly not, not que to get inside and easy process to buy tickets at the venue ( card and cash payments). I did expect a little more from this castle but was still quite interesting- I recommend the extras because honestly they were the best part in my eyes. Also includes a free souvenir photo at the end.

(Translated by Google) Disappointing, with the renovation they ruined the originality of the castle, turning it into a tourist joke... what a shame. (Original) Deludente, con la ristrutturazione hanno rovinato l'originalità del castello, trasformando in una pagliacciata per turisti...peccato.

Bran Castle is a beautiful and impressive place with stunning views all around. Very atmospheric, well maintained, and definitely worth visiting if you’re in the area. We really enjoyed the experience.

(Translated by Google) Spectacular castle. Fun, with a Dracula theme. Be careful with the stalls at the entrance. Some aren't very trustworthy and will try to scam you out of money. That really spoils the visit. (Original) Castillo espectacular. Divertido, con temática sobre Drácula. Cuidado con los puestos de la entrada. Algunos no son de mucho fiar, te intentan engañar con los pagos. Eso desvirtúa mucho la visita.

(Translated by Google) It's not Dracula's, but it's strange. With narrow passages, simple, without luxury. I would say imposing. (Original) Δεν ειναι του δρακουλα αλλα ειναι περιεργο. Με στενά περασματα, λιτό, χωρις πολυτέλεια. Επιβλητικό θα έλεγα.

We went there on Monday, good choice because there was basically no people, also because it's not really the season. As many people we fell for the "Dracula Castle" story which doesn't describe it correctly at all. The castle looks okay from the outside, but that's about it, the nature around the castle looks better than the building itself. Collectively we spend around 5h one way to get there from Bucharest and it was a waste of both time and money. Castle is very renovated, keeping little of it's historical value, Dracula is mentioned briefly and reference to him is scarce, whole exposition isn't really comprehensive and it's seems like all items holding historical value have been removed from the place, leaving it very empty, disappointing and worth seeing from the distance. Maybe if you're around, very bored and rich you could go there, but if you consider travelling from far like us, just spare yourself the disappointment and spend the money on some nice meal in a proper restaurant.

(Translated by Google) A lovely castle to visit and explore, even though it's very small. A guide isn't necessary. (Original) Castello carino da visitare ed esplorare anche se molto piccolo. Non è necessaria la guida.

I didn’t know what to expect with this visit, but I admit I was still disappointed. The castle looks nice from the outside, but there isn’t a lot of historical pieces and artworks inside. It looks overall very renovated and empty, and most of the things to see are panels of information. Also, we mostly learn about specific eras, like the reign of the Romanian queen in 20th century and also about the construction of the castle, but not much more. I was surprised that the Bran castle was advertised as dracula’s castle, but overall seeing no objects or rooms related to this figure, as well as very little information about him. I overall think that the ratio of price and struggle to arrive at the castle compared to the reward of visiting it, isn’t worth the trouble, and it’s obviously a tourist trap.

Bran is my favorite Castle! I visited many times and will visit again and again. It’s the best up-kept Castle from Romania and love the scenery, where is located. Interesting history and architecture. I recommend to everyone to visit at least once. You will love it, I’m sure. The Bran town is nice, plenty of places to eat in the vicinity.
