Welcome
Dear Guests,

This message is to confirm that everything is now prepared, inlcuding the transport scheme, and to provide some additional practical information.

*** Transport to the hotel

Once you left the protected area at the airport, please look for the 'STIMM' tag - you will be picked up and transferred to the hotel by car (about 2 h driving).

*** Other info

Although we hope for nice weather next week, one should keep in mind that Sinaia is a mountain resort and the hotel is located at 1400 meters altitude. Sudden changes of weather may occur, with showers and temperature drops, please be prepared.

The local currency in Romania is "Leu" (plural "Lei"). The exchange rate is about 3.2 Lei for 1 EUR and 2.4 Lei for 1 USD. For various transactions and money exchange, we strongly recommend that you contact only authorized institutions, such as banks or exchange offices. Foreign exchange facilities, as well as cash dispencers, are available at the Henri Coanda (Otopeni) International Airport and in several places in Sinaia, but not up at the hotel or in the close neighborhood. Bank opening hours: Monday to Friday: 9:00 to 17:00, closed on weekends. The major credit cards are generally accepted, including at the hotel.

Electricity is supplied at 230 Volts / 50 Hz.

In case of any problem you can contact the LOC at the following cell numbers: +40 *** ****** (Octav Marghitu), +40 *** ****** (Marius Echim) and +40 *** ****** (Adrian Blagau).

We wish you a nice travel to Romania and we are looking forward to welcome you next week.

Best regards,

Octav Marghitu, Marius Echim, Adrian Blagau, Dragos Constantinescu, Horia Comisel
