Staying in Arefu
Arefu sits in Arges County, Romania, and this page gathers 14 bookable properties in and around the town, 13 of them three-star. Every entry is a supplier record from the booking catalogue, listed by distance from the centre of Arefu, and the facilities described come straight from those records. The addresses given for all the hotels here read simply Arefu, Arges County, so the shortlist spreads across the town rather than clustering in one named district.
The mix suits different kinds of trips. Livada cu Meri, Pensiunea Diana, Pensiunea Bella Vista and Complex Balea offer family rooms, while Pensiunea Dracula, Casa Denisa Vidraru Transfgarasan and Casa Lupilor Transfăgărășan add entertainment activities or archery for guests who want more on site. Couples and short-break visitors may prefer smaller guesthouses such as Floare de colt or Pensiunea Ricky, and free car parking at many properties helps those arriving by car.
