A central hotel that offers terrific value rooms just a short walk from the Old Town. The basic doubles are big - if modestly furnished - and all have air conditioning, very good showers and televisions. The hotel offers a small swimming pool and good fitness centre, though they cost extra. Breakfast is included, however, and the restaurant serves brilliant ciorbe. All in all, a winner.

30 rooms (24 singles/doubles 189-216 lei, 5 suites/ apartments 315-360 lei, 1 studio 234). Prices include all taxes and breakfast.
