A dream stay! The food was excellent, and the room was just as wonderful. The staff was incredibly friendly, and I will definitely be back. We brought our dog along, and I loved that we had the option to dine indoors with him. They pay attention to the little details—gifts for our furry friend were very thoughtful and useful. I also found out that private parties can be hosted here, so I’m looking forward to returning with more friends. I highly recommend this location to everyone!

A dream location! I wholeheartedly recommend it if you’re looking for “home-cooked meals” and picturesque landscapes!

Just left the hotel and I have to say, I would return tomorrow if I could, and I will definitely come back anytime! We stayed for 4 nights at this hotel with a group of 30 people. I want to mention that we were completely satisfied with all the conditions, both regarding the accommodation (the rooms) and the food. The entire staff was impeccable. The chef is the owner’s son, and the food was not only delicious but also plentiful! The service was equally outstanding! In terms of activities, we faced no restrictions whatsoever. So, in conclusion, this place absolutely deserves a 5-star review, without a doubt!

We just left Hillden with a strong desire to return. The location is extraordinary, providing a relaxing atmosphere just by being here. The warmth and hospitality of the hosts deserve a perfect score of 10. We found cleanliness and very comfortable mattresses throughout our stay. The hosts were a delightful bonus, being open and cheerful, making it feel like a trip to visit friends. The cuisine is exceptional. The location features its own restaurant with a very diverse menu, and Chef Iustin knows how to cater to customers’ preferences and create magic with his dishes. Our child, a culinary critic of his generation, found several of his favorite meals in the fresh, daily-prepared menu. Another huge plus was the attention given to our little dog, along with the thoughtful gifts we found in our room for him. The large courtyard was the perfect place for relaxation and socializing with other pups. We also enjoyed a bath in the hot tub surrounded by nature and a carriage ride to the Dracilor Waterfall, arranged by the location. It was an experience filled with wonderful memories, and we will definitely return with joy.

If you get to know the hosts, as I did, you’ll realize they are truly wonderful people who have been through a lot and genuinely want to help and do good. From the perspective of the location, it deserves 5 stars, but if we consider how far a store might be, we’d give it 4 stars! From the location to the peak of Omu, there are two hiking trails that take about 5 to 6 hours. The service was impeccable, and the food was equally excellent. I really enjoyed my time at this place. The bed was comfortable, and the pillows were just as great. The rooms were well-kept and tidy.

I truly appreciate that the hotel owner, Ionela, welcomed us warmly and was very open with us, which helped us form a genuine team. The hotel deserves a perfect score of 10, as we had everything we needed at our disposal—paper, water, and delicious food. The meals, prepared with love by the chef, who even accompanied us on our hike, were incredibly tasty. This is a hotel with five-star services and exceptional people!

Hillden Lodge & Restaurant offers a remarkable culinary experience, featuring delicious dishes in a delightful ambiance. The young lady who served us was incredibly kind, attentive, and had a lovely presence, which greatly enhanced our dining experience. The Viennese schnitzel we savored was perfectly fried, juicy, and bursting with authentic flavor. The Karajorje was a refined and delicious dish that left my friend thoroughly impressed. For dessert, the Banat pancakes were a wonderful choice, filled with delectable ingredients and the perfect way to conclude an excellent meal.
A heartfelt thank you to the chef for the exquisite and delightful dishes! I wholeheartedly recommend this restaurant to anyone who appreciates quality food, impeccable service, and a pleasant atmosphere.
