All Months
May through September gives you the best weather and longest days. Summer temperatures hit 30°C regularly, but evenings cool down enough for comfortable walking. July and August see the most tourists, though Bucharest never feels truly crowded.
April can be tricky — one day you're wearing shorts, the next you need a jacket. But spring brings fewer crowds and hotel prices drop 20-30% from peak season.
Winter isn't pretty. Gray skies dominate from November through March, and temperatures hover around freezing. The upside? Hotel rates plummet, and you'll have major attractions mostly to yourself. Plus, Christmas markets pop up in December, and mulled wine tastes better when it's actually cold outside.
Avoid major Romanian holidays like Easter and August 15th when locals travel and many restaurants close.
