Central Pavilion in Călimănești

The Central Pavilion in Călimănești, also known as the Central Hotel, stands at 403 Calea lui Traian. The building was erected between 1881 and 1886 and rebuilt in 1910–1911. The long facade, the rhythm of the windows and the varied roof shapes recall the development of the spa resort at the end of the nineteenth century.

From the street you can see the turrets, the balconies and the exterior decoration, without entering the hotel premises. The pavilion is included in the List of Historical Monuments and is a landmark of spa architecture in Călimănești. The visit is about the building and its facade; access inside depends on the rules of the business that uses it.
