Sinaia, one of the most beautiful mountain resorts of Romania, presents itself to the visitor with a past rich in cultural and social events. Former Royal Summer Residence and bearing a holy name – the name of Mount Sinai (Israel) – a name that was given for the first time to the homonymous monastery by Prince Mihail Cantacuzino (XVII Century) - Sinaia combines in a unique way the beauty of nature with the beauty of the architectural art.
The resort is situated at an altitude of 798 meters to 1055 meters, on the south-eastern slope of Bucegi Mountains, along Prahova River bed.
The forested feet of Furnica, Zgarbura, Coltii lui Barbes and Culmea Izvorului Mountains, surround the resort in beautiful green scenery.
Located at a distance of 125 kilometers from Bucharest, 106 kilometers from Otopeni International Airport and at 35 kilometers from Brasov, Sinaia stretches along National Road No. 1, having also a railway access.
Sinaia is the place of dreamed holidays that come true
