I think Nix's advice re: restaurants also applies to sore arses. If you want one it's probably better to pay cash.

ok I am a fuckwit - chalet is booked from the 9th till the 21st - sorry

We are going to be arriving in Otopeni and picking up hire car late afternoon on 9th if anyone needs a lift! In my annorack trawling for info I found a couple of sites of interest but dont know how to create a link cos I'm crap http://www.restromania.com/Geografie/AboutBusteni.htm and http://hartaprahova.ro/harta-en-Prahova-28-Busteni-572-Busteni_Map.html

Hey all, I thought is was a good idea to post directions to Busteni. From Otopeni take DN1 to Ploiesti. Once you arrive to Ploiesti keep left (i.e. do not get into town). Be patient! They're working on the road like they always do in these parts of the world... From Ploiesti follow Brasov. In fact you may see directions to Brasov earlier. The villa "Craciunita" is 38k before Brasov. Once you hit hit Busteni start looking at those marks on the side of the road showing you how far you are from places... I don't have the word in English The 130-th is 38 k from Brasov and right after it take the first road to your right and keep going on that road for like 5 min. You will be under a bridge and over the railway station and the river and up on the road there will be Craciunita.... and Nick! Does this make sense? I will check more postings later to see you have more q-s. Looking forward to see you all soon... xrxrxrxr

ok drax has provided a map for anyone driving here

hey fix, its about 38km away so either taxi or if its not reasonable you call us and we come get you. Nix

The villa is on Pescariei Street, nr.21. The neighborhood where the villa is located is called Zamora. Nick will post a detailed map of the area.

Taxi may work but it may cost you an indeterminate amount of euros. Dad's untested guess is 100, in addition to lower risks such as ending up in ditches and stolen credit cards... Any train that goes to Bucharest and stops in either Busteni or Sinaia will do and we can pick you up from the train station. xrxrxr
