BUCHAREST may not yet be part of the expanding Europe (Romania expects to join in 2007) but the international hotel trade is quick to see an opportunity in the making. Marriott has embarked on a major upgrade of the Bucharest Grand Hotel converting it into the first of its distinctively up-market JW Marriott properties in Continental Europe. Typically a butler service will be available upon request for guests staying on the executive level and every guest room will include high-speed Internet access. Bucharest is a surprisingly compact city and within walking distance, guests can visit the Botanical Gardens, Bucharest Opera House, City History Museum or art museums ” the Museum of Art Collections or the National Art Museum at the Royal Palace. Additional city highlights include Cotroceni Palace, offering a three-century historical evolution of Romanian history and the Palace of Parliament, once known as the largest building in Europe.
