The best accommodations Iaşi

A superb establishment in the heart of the historic center, Hotel Select is housed in a beautiful ^19th-century pink building. Its interiors and rooms blend the elegance of yesteryear with contemporary luxury. A warm welcome awaits you. The hotel offers two excellent restaurants: Cin Cin (contemporary cuisine) and Barocco, which serves international dishes in a more classical setting. Finally, the Kingsley cocktail bar, facing the magnificent staircase, will remind you of the hushed ambience of the grand hotels of Central Europe in the days of the Habsburg empire.

Its high concrete silhouette dominates Piața Unirii. In this charmless envelope is a 4-star hotel with an excellent level of comfort. The interiors have been very well redone. The rooms are elegant, although in some of them the furniture is a little dated. The hotel has a spa with indoor swimming pool, sauna, gym and massage cabins. On the thirteenth and top floor, the Panoramic restaurant offers a 360-degree view of the city. They serve international cuisine. A less stuffy bistro-terrace occupies the ground floor.

Youth hostels aren't commonplace in Iași, and this hostel is almost an exception. It's located near the university, about twenty minutes from the center. Recently renovated, the dormitories are spacious and comfortable. Each bed is equipped with an electrical outlet and a curtain for added privacy. In the shared kitchen, you'll find everything you need for breakfast (fruit, tea, milk and cereals are provided). If you're looking for an economical solution, you've come to the right place.

This small, comfortable and charming hotel is housed in a neoclassical building. It is centrally located, close to the National Theater, but away from the main traffic arteries. Rooms are spacious and decorated in a rather elegant but sometimes old-fashioned style. The bathrooms are very clean. The in-house restaurant serves lunch and dinner in a classic, elegant all-white setting. Traditional Romanian specialties are served. Good value for money.

This bungalow village is located 8 km north of Iași, in the locality of Dorobanți, on the shores of the lake of the same name. The setting is pleasant and wooded. The wooden cabins for 2 are comfortably equipped: attractive furniture, air conditioning, TV... All have a small shaded terrace and they share common sanitary facilities. Some bungalows have 2 bedrooms and a living room. Numerous outdoor activities are available: canoeing, tennis, boating, ping-pong, fishing, badminton... The campsite also has a multi-sports field and terraces overlooking the lake.

This is one of the most comfortable options for small budgets. This large guesthouse, surrounded by a pretty vegetable garden, offers single, double and triple rooms, as well as apartments for 3-4 people, with simple, old-fashioned decor. All rooms have en-suite bathrooms, minibars, TV and air conditioning. On the other hand, the establishment is a long way from the center, 7 km south of town, between a wooded hill and a business park. Access is difficult without a vehicle.

Erected in 1882 by Gustave Eiffel's company, this elegant neoclassical building overlooking the central square is a listed historic monument. In stark contrast to the surrounding concrete towers! The 3 or 4-star comfort rooms are magnificent, decorated in the Belle Époque style, though sometimes bordering on kitsch. Beware, too, that some rooms can be noisy. The establishment, renovated in the 2000s, also boasts a restaurant, a bistro serving pizzas and Romanian dishes, and a London-style pub.
