The view is absolutely fabulous.
There is a barbecue area and a dinning space to prepare your own dishes.
We only stayed for 1 night so we didn't actually try the pool but there were some guys there having a great time. We enjoyed fishing instead.

The accomodation is built with taste and everything is clean and well maintained. The host is really nice and he can also arrange for you with the neighbour, Sorin, if you want to go on a boat trip on the Danube. Food is also great. Would definitely go again.
A nice not-so-little village along the Danube. Many hosting and dining opportunities. Both boat trips on the Danube as well as by car along the Danube are possible and rewarding. Serbia can be visited with ID card only, a nice surprise.

I went in the off season when almost everything was closed.
I went in the off season when almost everything was closed. So no restaurants, and no food shops in walking distance (come prepared) and very little accommodation open (I recommend Serenity; Iuliana is the perfect host). But if you like an amazing river view coupled with peace and tranquility I definitely recommend a winter visit.

It is one of the best locations to stay if you drive.
It is one of the best locations to stay if you drive. From Eselnita you can explore Danube from Iron Gates ( Portile de Fier) to Moldova Noua, by car or by boat. Also, you can explore the nearby mountains, with their beautiful sites, too many to count here. Driving up north from Eselnita (Eselnita-Orsova-Baile Herculane) you can choose to explore west side - Bigar Fall, Semenic Mountains) or eastern side - Retezat Mountains, both with plenty of beautiful places, accessible by car or by foot. There are lots of places where you can eat and most of accommodations have their own restaurant and parking lot.

A must to do it's a boat trip, even if it's the short version of 2h, also a hike to the Ciucarul mare it's recommended. What I would also have liked to do but haven't got the time would be a 1 day trip with the boat from Eselnita to the entering point of Danube in the country, the Ponicova cave, a visit to the Portile de Fier Museum.
The city of Drobeta Turnu Severin it's also a good destination for 1 day trip.
I would have liked to see some bicycle ways and some sidewalks for tourists.
We have ate at 2 restaurants fish dishes but the food quality was average.

The hotel is located in a very beautiful setting right next to the river. From the room you have a breathtaking view of the Danube. The restaurant has delicious food and the breakfast is wonderful. You can admire the view from confortable chairs in the hotel garden. The outdoor pool is also great. The reception lady and the restaurant staff are all very kind and helpful. We took a wonderful 2 hour boat trip from the harbour next to the hotel. The water excursion is not to be missed ! Simply phenomenal !
Good location, next to the Danube, amazing view. The hotel had a nice pool by the river and deck chairs, in case you want to admire the view, have drink and get a tan.
The room looked really good and it was clean. The staff were very friendly.
Good breakfast was included in the mornings. Accessible parking and wifi were available as well.
I'd recommend booking this place. I would come here again.
We liked the location of the hotel and the Austrian / Romania owner of the place. The view of the danube are amazing and the local food provided was great.
