Hotels in Romania
Visitors are advised to book accommodation in advance, particularly for summertime visits to coastal resorts. Room prices in lower-end hotels are very reasonable compared to Western European prices, whereas 4- and 5-star hotels are comparable in both standards and price. Breakfast normally costs extra. Romania's first boutique hotels have opened in Transylvania. For further information, contact the Romanian Tourist Office or see Romanian Travel Guide online (www.rotravel.com).
Grading: Hotels are classified from 1 to 5 stars.
Accommodation of this type (also called 'Pensiune') is plentiful in Romania and in smaller towns or villages may be the only options. Private rooms tend to be cheaper than hotel rooms and will be basic but comfortable. Bed and breakfast accommodation is classified from 1 to 3 daisies. For further information, contact the Romanian National Tourist Office or ANTREC (see Accommodation Information below), which has a good selection of rural guesthouses.
There are 69 campsites licensed by the Romanian Ministry of Tourism, many located next to picturesque rivers and at affordable prices. Camping holidays in Romania are very popular for families with young children.
To sample the real Romanian lifestyle, opt to stay in someone's home. A room costs from Lei20-80 per night, which often includes two meals. Rooms are clean but some do not have private bathrooms for guests. Hosts may not speak English.
Most hostels are open in July and August although some are open year-round.
Provision is increasing, as foreigners purchase properties here. Addresses of private accommodation and self-catering establishments are available from local tourist offices.
