선가든 골프 & 스파 리조트

DO NOT COME HERE! I will start by saying the spa was really good, that is one of the only nice things I can say about this place. My first night, I decided to go downstairs & have dinner. Despite there being 0 people in the restaurant & 200 lei for a steak, I didn't have a choice because Bolt doesn't deliver here & the closest restaurant is 20 mins away. I ordered the ribeye, it was almost inedible. I asked for medium-rare, it was bleeding. They put a literal slice of CHEDDAR cheese on my "crispy PARMESAN potatoes" (which were almost green) & when I asked them to fix it (very nicely because the waitress was sweet) they cooked it again. This time is was burnt on the outside & still raw on the inside. I didn't even try to eat it at this point because I saw the "chef" & he looked as if he was just hired off the street with no training. They gave me 20% off which is appreciated. After that, we decided to go to the spa. The spa was lovely. Unfortunately it gets worse though. The bartender was being really passive aggressive because I couldn't speak Romanian. Also they don't have vodka at the bar, when I asked about it she told me "um no" as if that was a weird question to ask at a literal bar. I had a mojito. It was fine. Overall, this place is extremely overpriced & there was barely anyone here because they seem like they are going out of business pretty soon. You're better off going to Vibre Hotel, similar price & 10x better. Trust me.

I came back to repeat a very pleasant experience from 8 months ago. Pros: The massage was also with Andreea, exceptional, the spa area superlative, I appreciated Mr. Turos' therapy. The outdoor pool is beautifully made, too bad it is not heated. Minuses: In the Finnish sauna it smelled of chlorine, there was no essence available. At the reception, the young lady looked disheveled, her blouse unironed. I had to explain repeatedly how to do the invoices. Dirty windows in the reception area and beyond. I found the coffee mugs in the room dirty upon arrival, and there was water on the floor in the bathroom. The bathroom is small and uncomfortable in relation to the size of the room. The whole hotel needs a modernization, it is a shame of the initial concept and investment. There are many outdated aspects, with kitsch accents in the hallways and common areas. The staff is not at the level of a 5-star hotel. Dirty windows in the reception area and beyond.

First time ever I can say that in this resort there is nothing to complain. Everything is more than perfect. Service everywhere is kind and hotel staff speaks also good english. Rooms are modern, fresh and clean. Minibar is well equipped. Spa area is fresh clean and lovely. Many different saunas and couple pools. Small pool bar where was nice menu of snacks and cocktails. Location is perfect. Surrounded by beautiful nature. 20 min from the center of Cluj. You can wake up to the sounds of birds and frogs from nearby lake. Spa experience couldn't get better from this. Absolutely worth of visit!

We traveled from the US to Cluj for the Romanian Cup golf tournament. Everything about our experience at Sun Garden was excellent. Our rooms were beautiful and clean, stocked with fluffy towels and robes, and received daily housekeeping. The spa was wonderful - my sister-in-law and I received side-by-side massages and our whole family enjoyed the other amenities together. The indoor pool is a wonderful, warm temperature and we had no trouble finding lounge chairs. The saunas and hot tub were amazing. The whole environment was very unique and old world feeling; it felt like we were in another time. The golf course was awesome - short relative to the courses we're used to in the US but super fun. 9 hole par 66. The food in the hotel restaurant was delicious - my favorite dish was the lentil cream soup which I had at least once per day during our four day stay. Service in all areas excellent, from the attentive and friendly waitstaff to the helpful front desk to the skilled therapists in the spa. We have all great memories from our stay at this beautiful resort and hope to return.
