( 0244-526 850; www.hotelprahova.ro ; Str C-tin Dobrogeanu Gherea 11; r 504 lei;
) This communist-era hulk has been given a thorough makeover, and prices have
been adjusted upward accordingly. The squawking parrot in the lobby is cute at first but
starts to get old very fast. The location couldn't be better, just a couple of minutes' walk
from the central square.
HOTEL
Hotel Nord $$
( 0244-516 774; www.nordhotelploiesti.com ; Sos Vestului 31; s 130-200 lei, d 160-240
lei; ) Nothing fancy here at this boxy business hotel 2km northwest of the
centre, but the rooms are clean and good value. The Nord offers both two- and three-star
rooms. There's not much difference, except the latter have air-conditioning. Trolleybus 44
runs from the southern rail and bus stations to within 100m of the hotel.
