Prietenia Hotel

Moldova


Overlooking the Dniestr, this derelict-looking Soviet-style place has no sign – it's near the end of ul S Liazo on the embankment. Designers have renovated the rooms without deviating from loud plaid patterns.

The standard rooms have river-facing balconies but the pol-lux (half-suites) offer a significant bump up in size and comfort. Breakfast is 75 roubles. Some rooms have balconies with a river view and only the brand-new deluxe rooms have air-con.
