Grand Hotel Continental

Making the very best of a wonderful building (which dates from 1886) on chic Calea Victoriei, today's Grand Hotel Continental is the result of more than two years of loving renovation and restoration. There's marble at every turn, though do not think that modern touches are missing, for they are not. The audio-visual systems in the rooms for example are state of the art. For the great location and for a change from the big chains, it's well worth trying out.
