4 tips for savvy savings when booking a hotel in Bucharest

  1. Book for the cheapest times: The most budget-friendly months to visit Bucharest are January, February, and August, when hotel prices may drop, offering great value for money for those travelling on a budget. To fully appreciate the city's rich history and culture, a stay of at least 3 to 4 days is recommended. During this time, visitors can explore a range of landmarks and attractions, including museums, historical churches, cathedrals, charming cafes, and impressive monuments that capture the essence of Bucharest's heritage.
  2. Look for last-minute deals on Hotels.com: To uncover last-minute deals to Bucharest, consider exploring the DealsOpens in a new window or Last-Minute Deals sections on Hotels.com, where you may discover discounted rates on accommodations as your travel date approaches. By activating email alerts or push notifications, you're more likely to see updates on flash sales and special promotions, ensuring you don't miss any savings opportunities. Additionally, Smart Shopping is a comparison tool available via the app that helps you compare hotel prices and amenities. If prices drop or new rooms become available, you'll be promptly informed, making it easier to secure your last-minute getaway.
  3. Be flexible with dates: Prices may fluctuate due to factors such as the hotel's location, star rating, and the time of year, so having some flexibility with your travel dates could help you save on your stay in a Bucharest hotel. For those seeking a distinctive experience, boutique hotels can provide a more personalised atmosphere and potentially better value. When you book through Hotels.com, we will inform you whether the price for your chosen dates is above or below the average.
