Urban Daddy is rolling in with the good recommendations this week--yesterday we were taken with the Mirage's Bloody Marys and today we want to explore their tip-off for a good hotel in Romanian capital Bucharest.
The Carol Parc Hotel is billed as Bucharest's "most exclusive luxury residence" and is walking distance from the city center. Despite opening just last year, it's gained enough attention to get an entry in Wikipedia which includes the fact that it's got one of the largest Murano crystal chandeliers in the world--it's taller than four storeys.
The hotel itself was formed from two existing buildings, which used to be headquarters for various communist party institutions, but nobody seems to mind. The hotel quickly built an excellent reputation as the best place to stay in Bucharest. And it has the coolest prom ride in Europe.
An average room rate will cost you around US$400--pricey for Romania, but you're getting high quality. Don't try to stop in this week, though, as they're fully booked out for the NATO Summit. Presumably a few world leaders will be spending the night at the Carol Parc and enjoying that chandelier.
