Edem Hotel

Edem Hotel Overview

First Impressions

Walking up to Edem Hotel on Odessa Street, you immediately get the sense that this is one of those places locals actually know about. It’s a solid three-star property that doesn’t try to be something it’s not — and honestly, that’s refreshing in Chişinău. The building has this understated charm that fits perfectly with the neighborhood vibe, and you can tell right away that someone actually cares about maintaining the place.

The Neighborhood Advantage

Here’s what I love about the location — you’re right in the heart of things without dealing with the chaos of the main tourist strips. Odessa Street puts you within easy walking distance of the city center, but it’s quiet enough that you’ll actually sleep well. I mean, couples consistently rate this spot highly for good reason — there’s something romantic about strolling these tree-lined streets in the evening. You’ve got cafes and local spots nearby that most tourists never discover, which honestly makes the whole experience feel more authentic.

Your Room Experience

The room I stayed in was exactly what you’d expect from a well-run three-star — clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully arranged. Nothing fancy, but everything worked properly, which is more than I can say for some pricier places I’ve been. The beds are actually comfortable (you know how hit-or-miss that can be), and there’s enough space to spread out your stuff without feeling cramped. What really impressed me was the attention to small details — good lighting for reading, decent water pressure, and windows that actually open for fresh air.

Practical Perks

The continental breakfast is solid — not going to change your life, but it’ll definitely fuel you for a day of exploring the city. What really sets this place apart though is the free parking situation. If you’re driving around Moldova, you know how much of a headache parking can be in the capital, so having a guaranteed spot is honestly worth its weight in gold. The staff seems to genuinely care about helping guests figure out the city, and they’re not just reciting tourist brochures — they’ll give you real recommendations.

Why Guests Love It

Look, Edem Hotel isn’t trying to be the fanciest place in town, and that’s exactly why it works so well. You’re getting genuine value — a comfortable stay in a great location without paying for amenities you probably won’t use anyway. The fact that recent guests consistently rate the location so highly tells you everything you need to know about how well-positioned this place is. It’s the kind of hotel where you’ll sleep well, start your day properly fed, and step outside feeling like you’re actually experiencing Chişinău rather than just passing through it.

Reviews of Edem Hotel

• Ilias from Greece (9/10)

  Simple and tasty breakfast. Better than all these big hotels with the big variety, that you don't know what to choose. The lady prepared for us every day a home-made original breakfast, for a cheap price. Clean and spacious rooms. Pool was wonderful to relax, location is very quiet, near the train station. Guests were families. The reception functions all day and you just ring the bell to enter, if you return late in the night.

• Quentin from France (9/10)

  Very clean and well maintained, people really accommodating and welcoming at the check in

• Thomas from India (9/10)

  Amazing stay

• Frederick from New Zealand (9/10)

  I arrived early and overlooked advising the hotel that I would be early. They very kindly prepared a room which was available shortly after my arrival. Room was very comfortable with good facilities. Hotel also arranged a taxi for me to go to a winery later in the day. The hotel management were fabulous – I had such a fun filled stay. My only regret is that I didn't stay longer.

  We had a nice and clean room with a balcony on the second floor. The bed was comfy and the WiFi worked very well. The train station and the airport bus station are both within walking distance (approx. 10 – 15 minutes). Extremely friendly and helpful hosts. Very good value for money.
