Chateau Purcari

Lovely evening stay made by meeting two delightful UK/ Romanian couples . Check in at 3 pm . Staff initially unaware I had already paid for accomodation . Room (barrel ) was quirky but bathroom was really too small . Wine tasting was an interesting experience and dinner was excellent . Breakfast was somewhat disappointing with usual buffet where ‘hot ‘ food was tepid . Waiter service would have been nice . Pricey at full price for one night stay but. Dry enjoyable none the less .

Spectacular, unique property. Was a real find. Great restaurant too.

On my first day the service was great. On the second during breakfast I was totally ignored, all others around me were asked if they would like to have some coffee or tea. Another one asked all except of me if they would like to have an omelet. The reason was that those two didn't spoke english and I was the only one who didn't spoke Russian or Romanian in the room. It is really sad because everything else was just perfect.

Had a great one-night stay in the romantic chalet at Chateau Purcari, situated on top of the hotel along side the barrel accommodation. The room was spacious and comfortable, although there was nowhere outside to sit and enjoy the views over the vines and the garden. AC was efficient. Staff are friendly even if all don't speak English. We took a wine tour and tasting (fabulous) while there which was fun. Dinner was good although the restaurant was empty mid-week. Breakfast was diverse and plentiful. As the room was on the roof (along with the barrel/classic house rooms) you do need to carry your luggage upstairs. It's a bit tight at the top so not the best if you have a big suitcase. There is parking on site and we had no concerns about leaving a bigger case in our car.
