Always a nice attraction ! Well kept and you get info in multiple languages. The market underneath is great to browse around for traditional products. Minus points for the parking ; always problematic.

Tia Vasiljevic

The garden was very well kept with roses , trees & lovely lake too. Inside, I enjoyed checking out the tiny rooms, going through dark tunnels & climbing narrow staircases, finding hidden compartments

Tia Vasiljevic

I was quite surprised how much I enjoyed spending time exploring the castle , reading about the history of it all & some tales in English. There was also in the native language and in German.

Stefan Crisan

Love this castle and his history. Beautiful rooms with great details. The stairs are so lovely.

Carl Griffin

Beautiful fairy tale castle . Supposed connections with Vlad Tepes (Dracula). A must visit if you are in the Brasov area.

Vincent Krause

Here! The story to accompany your visit to this beautiful gloomy place. Preferably read in the courtyard , cellar or rooftop at night. Be alone to intensify the shivers crawling up your spine. Enjoy! Read more

Ask for the private tour to hear the castles true role through history. Very well preserved and with secret passageways! Its said that if you drop a coin in the well you will win the lottery !

Promoted as Dracula's castle , it's in a beautiful and green environment. Well maintained building which deserves visiting but rather not for its myth :)

Jon Darveau

The Dracula angle is all marketing FYI, if you can get over that though you will find beautiful views and an interesting history.

Yannis Vr.

Disappointed! 1st of all nothing with Dracula. 2nd it is very expensive compared to what you see, although every year around 1 million tourists they visited it. The only private museum in Romania.

Viki Brianski

Charming place. I loved it!! The view from the castle is breathtaking!

Juan Fernandez

The castle belongs to the royal family. Please come to visit it, they need to buy a new yacht. The castle is lovely, but it's nothing scary or gothic, just like any other castle really...

You may travel by local bus . Get to Autogara 2 and hop in to bus to Bran. Get down when you see the Bran castle on your left side.

Tia Vasiljevic

After the exploring, learning & excitements, we sat down for a bit to enjoy the lovely view from the top floor of the castle

An inspired person should have lived there when the original didn't. Hours of queing to see some uninteresting rooms. I know the temptation to visit it is big, but it is just a big tourist scam!

Lucy🔥 Bee

It's a great castle with mysterious history! My Castle TOP 10 No2.

Christian

Come early and enjoy a gem of a castle (but please ignore the far-fetched Dracula backdrop).

Zineta Emini

It sure is a must visit. It has an interesting history and every story about this place is unbelievable.

Lars Brawerman

Beautiful views and an interesting adventure)

Stefan Crisan

Don’t forget to visit the time tunnel ( tunelul timpului ).

Александар Л.

Even though it's marketed as Dracula's castle , it only has one room dedicated to Vlad Tepes with few words about him. Everything else is about Queen Marie. Very disappointing. It has free wifi though.

Justin

Breathtakingly beautiful place, we visited in January and the snow made it all the more magical

Munir Amani Dasheer

One of the many castles in Romania with Historical background of war and royalties.

Ozkan Ulukok

Castle is great but like the other touristic locations, restaurants have bad meals service quality is very low

Iulia Oprea

Don't forget to visit the souvenir shop. You can get some nice and cheap stuff over there.

Roaming Gnome

They say the real Dracula lived here. I won't be able to sleep until I take the tour and make sure he's gone. Hotel Reco: http://bit.ly/1clsDk7

Good Or Not

Breathtaking place. Must visit in Transylvania.

Alex Vornicu

Not so impressed. Pretty bad that there is no original furniture in it. But, if do you want to see the original furniture , go to the Custom's medieval museum , you won't regret it.

Chris F

Like being stuck in a NYC Trader Joe's line that snakes through the entire store. OK castle , ruined by hordes of tourists squeezing through single-file hallways.

Ťhijs Ģøøssens

The toilets look amazing, worth a visit!

diana

medieval castle maintained as a historical museum . interesting tour but at some point it was too crowded and it became uncomfortable.

Plamen HH

Good looking from the outside, no point of going inside. There is nothing of a particular interest or value inside. If it is the touristic period it is extremely crowded and frustrating!

Carlos Thompson

Come in the afternoon less people do in the morning brasov city first which is really nice

Vassilis Ts

Fantastic view from Bran castle window !

Lyudmila Korelova

Awesome place. Cheap t-shirts with Dracula look for near the torture museum

Brunold Loidl

Take some garlic with you against Dracula 🧄🔪🩸🧛‍♀️

Can Güray

The Castle and the cottage with grassy roof are looking amazing. Yet there are not so many exciting stuff inside. Nothing to compare with Peles Castle .
