No one can take a Romanian as an Hungarian or a Bulgarian, or a Russian. We love all these people, but we are proud Romanian!
How to discover best of Romania
All these nations have something in common: they are very old proud nations, but also enthusiath Europeans.
BEST HOTELS IN BUCHAREST
I must confess, I love Bucharest. I go very often in this nice charming city, the Romanian capital actually. I must confess again, I am even born in Bucharest, but my family always lived in another place,Focsani, 200 km away from Bucharest ( so, my birth in Bucharest was only an accident!)
GOD BLESS ROMANIA ON ITS NATIONAL DAY
We, the people of Romania, are tolerant, open minded, opened to new contacts. We love our minorities, we love our neighbors, but we remain proud and happy Romanians.
CHEAP HEALTHCARE IN ROMANIA
he fact and the reality is that your doctor /physician might be an excellent information source for Romania and your possible trip to Romania. Most probably, he is Romanian, or has a Romanian friend, as very many Romanian doctors emigrated, due to the low wages in Romania. This matter turns to be an outrageous brain drain, while the country desperately needs good specialists
you wanna have a big time. Romania will mean an event for you for sure, and you are going to have a big time.
The folklore and the popular music could be also a reason to visit Romania
Visit Romania only if you really enjoy life. You are going to have in Romania very good human contacts, the Romanians are friendly people, always happy to have guests and proud to show them everything. Many of them are also ready to give you everything, as to their good friends. And it really means everything, clothes and suits.
In Romania we still use the horses in agriculture, forest exploitation etc
Visit Romania only if you want to discover something special. Half of the population still lives to the countryside, and sometimes not in the best conditions! Nevertheless, they will welcome you from all their heart with bread and salt, in the good traditional way. Many hotels will also receive you with a glass of wine.
Romania means a rich culture, before anything else. Here the painted monastery from Moldovita with the expert explanations of a sister
Visit Romania only if you have at least one week free. It is a medium sized country, with 237 000 sqkm and 21 Millions inhabitants. There are many interesting tours lasting one week, e.g. at Karpaten, the biggest incoming company .If you have less time to your disposal, make a city break in Bucharest, or other big city of Romania. Many of them are really fantastic due of their architecture and historic artefacts.
The Roamanian gastronomy is rich, tasty and affordable. No chance to get any weight off
Visit Romania only if you plan to come here again. This is the usually way the tourists follow: come as guest, leave as a friend and come back! The time for a trip to Romania is always too short, and there are a plenty new things to discover at every step. And a new perspective might be the good one, if you understand what I mean. Romania is surprisingly and charming.
These all above mentioned are a few of the most important things to visit Romania. It really worths, believe me and make a try!
Supposing you are at home on Christmas, as the tradition and the conventions ask. But on New Year any traditions and conventions allow you to go far away, spending an unforgettable vacation. If you did not plan anything in advance, hunt a last minute trip, might be a good solution. I am pretty sure that you are going to find excellent packages for spending New Year in Romania at fantastic prices.
My intuition strongly tells me, that specially Poiana Brasov/Schulerau with its unbelievable and shameless prices will be an easy target for the last minute trips. You must only wait and count on me, as this resort and its exquisite hotels are not going to be overbooked at all, due to a bad marketing and price strategy. Practically untouchable for the normal Romanians, Poiana Brasov is aiming to become at least same untouchable for the normal foreigners.
I think is rather adviceable not to book the most expensive packages for Christmas and New Year. Watch them carefully and thoroughly, especially the meals. It is simply too much for any human being! This sad matter applies not exclusively to the hospitality industry from Romania, it is very trendy everywhere in the world. It is no doubt an example of not sustainable development, and shall not be your aim in traveling to Romania or elsewhere.
Totally different would be booking a small friendly pension from Bucovina, Maramures or Transilvania. Try to limit at three stars ***, thus making a good choice for your pocket, as also for the locals and the environment. I would recommend a place I know very much, until its details, namely the fantastic Casa Bazna from Bazna. They really have a friendly service, and all the meals smell and taste totally different comparing the things you eat usually. They must be almost bio, exclusively based on local products.
The fantastic resort Paltinis is renowned among the fans of winter sports, and offers an unforgettable New Year
Comparable to Poiana Brasov as a fantastic location for winter sports and for having a good New Year, but much cheaper is Paltinis. Very close to Sibiu, Paltinis offers a wonderful landscape, and good possibilities for ski on natural snow. Plus, the prices and the service are much friendlier.
In winter or summer, Casa Bazna offers friendly service, cheap prices and unspoiled nature
I am born in Romania, I am living in Romania, I have been living in Romania for decades and I am a professional travel guide here, aiming to present the real Romania to the foreign tourists.
The Romanian wines are very tasty, but may not be very expansive!
As a local, I know the best places and prices, mastering the art of good living on a budget (don't laugh, in Romania is still possible). And I am the happiest travel guide on Earth when I can spare something for my tourists.
E.g.: I am going with my tourists in the best hotels possible, and I was very angry to see how expansive is a glass of wine in Hotel Gerald's, Radauti. It was 10 Lei for sure (if you still don't know, the Romanian coin is called Leu, plural Lei and 1 EURO= 4,3 LEI). The result is not very bad for a foreign tourist used to travel at four stars hotels: 2,2 Euro for a glass of wine. But I buy a liter of the same wine (my favorite Cabernet Sauvignon) in my town of Focsani with 10 LEI again. Seems to me so unfair!
Happy german Tourists in Romania, on a Danube Delta cruise
I am not angry anymore about the high price of a glass of wine in Hotel Gerald, since I discovered in the Ramada chain the same glass of wine at 14 LEI! Otherwise, with a few of small observations, these hotels are really excellent, and the tourists really enjoyed staying there. Tell me your opinions about it, I hope I am not exaggerating in protecting the interests of my tourists vs my beloved Romania!
As you see, I am striving not to present Romania as a fancy expansive destination. Nevertheless, it could become also such a destination, we have many exquisite hotels with four and five stars. But I am trying to keep everything in the limit of a certain common sense, and I am going to give you another example.
Eating in a Romanian restaurant is a rewarding task sometimes, you must only
Most of my groups come with half board, and sometimes I am trying to organize the lunch on the way. Most of restaurant owners and managers, when receiving such a call, try to offer rich tables with expansive prices, beyond the limit. Consequently, I refined my searches: don't call anymore with one day or a few hours in advance. Instead, capture and hunt the fantastic offer "Meniul Zilei" (Day offer) when I can find it.
