Hotels on the Romanian seaside are scheduled to be operational starting April 20, in preparation for the opening of the summer season, according to statements made by Nicolae Bucovală, First Vice-President of the Federation of Romanian Tourism Employers (FPTR). The official emphasized the importance of meeting deadlines for resort preparation and implementing restrictions on construction sites during the summer.
During a press conference held in Eforie Nord, the FPTR representative specified that the hotel industry must be ready regardless of whether the tourist flow actually begins on April 30 or May 1, depending on weather conditions. An essential aspect for the season’s operation is the cessation of construction work between May 15 and September 15, according to government regulations.
At the institutional level, preparations were initiated as early as February through a partnership between the Ministry of Economy, Digitalization, Entrepreneurship, and Tourism (MEDAT) and the FPTR, under the “Year of Quality in Tourism” initiative.
