Sovata Resort continues to grow and attract tourists through major investments made in recent years. In the past five years, four four-star hotels have opened here, while another underwent extensive renovations. During the same period, three three-star hotels were modernized, and numerous guesthouses, villas, and other accommodation units were built or refurbished, transforming the tourist offering into one that is both diverse and modern. The total value of the investments exceeds €80 million, a sum that has radically changed the image of the resort and increased its accommodation capacity. Today, spa hotels alone can host around 2,000 tourists, while development plans include three more four-star hotels currently at different stages of project development. Sovata now offers a wide range of accommodation options, from four-star hotels such as Crystal, Sovata, Pacsirta, or Bradet, to three-star hotels like Muresul, Relax, or Ursina, along with modern villas and guesthouses such as Vila Turul, Pensiunea Sylvania, Vila Noblesse, Pensiunea Comfort, or Vila Salt & Soul. The offering is completed by popular restaurants highly appreciated by visitors, including Kali, Pacsirta, Paprika, Ciuperca Mica, and Bello. Through these investments and upgrades, Sovata strengthens its position as a leading spa resort, capable of delivering high-quality services and attracting tourists in search of relaxation, specialized treatments, and authentic experiences in a unique natural setting. Sovata hoteliers offer competitive prices relative to the quality of services provided.
