Watch enough fireworks to blow up an entire city on display in Bucharest, Romania as the country celebrates its entry into the European Union.<p>From what we hear, New Year's Eve in Bucharest is like the shelling of a city without the actual damage. Just the noise, smoke, and confusion Tim L. 2006-12-19T12:30:02-05:00 http://www.hotelchatter.com/story/2006/12/19/112419/44 <![CDATA[<p><img src="http://www.hotelchatter.com/files/admin/kiwi_hostel.jpg" class="imgborder"/><p> <b>[Ed.

Enjoy.]</b><p>You could sit in a high hotel tower and take in the crazy fireworks display that will envelop Romania's capital on December 31, as the country celebrates its entry into the EU. Or you could bunker down in a backpacker hostel that costs $78 a night. Hmmmm...<p> Maybe 30 euros a person for a hostel bed is pretty normal in London or Paris, but when you can get a decent hotel room for that price in Romania, no thanks. We're not sure how a place in Bucharest ends up being named Tim L. 2006-12-19T12:30:02-05:00 Search HotelChatter string http://www.hotelchatter.com/search/
