Our offer for hotels

According to the National Institute of Statistics in Romania, in 2010 11,997,101 people have traveled outside the country for tourist purposes only. That number represents more than half the current population of the country. It is important for a tourist to receive relevant information, according to the culture and words that are used in his country in his current speach, so that confusions and wrong expectations are not created.

I would like to propose a collaboration for translating your website from English to Romanian, in a clear, brief, accurate and exact language, adapted to the specifics of the Romanian language, as well as to the expectations and requests of the Romanian tourist. This way, the quality of the Romanian information provided by your website will radically increase, determining your online visitors to make a quick decision in making a booking. Studies connected to the consumer’s behavior have proven that a client will give up searching for information or making a purchase when facing certain obstacles (in this case the language barrier), as it is easier to simply look for another online reservation website, to your loss.

If you are interested in my offer, I will wait for you to contact me at for arranging details such as testing, legal aspects, deadlines, price and any other information you may require.
