Moldova - The Country That Hasn't Been Discovered Yet
Why visit Moldova in 2026. What to see, what to expect and where to stay. One of Europe's fastest-growing travel destinations. Guide by Castel Unghern.
On the edge of the ancient Codri forests in the Orhei district, the castle recreates the feel of an aristocratic estate. Light, noble tones — gold and beige — hold luxury and minimalism in quiet balance. Every piece of décor is chosen by hand, for stays that are unhurried and private.
Each room is named for a story — a battle, a flower, a bird. None looks like the next.
Seventy dishes from across the continent, served in a fifty-seat dining room of arched windows and oak floors. Open for brunch, lunch, and dinner — and, on Sundays, a long afternoon roast that runs until the sun gets low.
Letters and notes from the kitchen, the cellar, and the long walks beyond the gates.
"Great place. Recently renovated. Beautifully decorated. Spacious. Great food."
