6/10 (25 reviews)
The place was empty which wasn't a good sign. The room stunk of cigarette smoke. There was no water, hot or cold, in the morning. And literally not one staff member present in the morning. It was creepy.

Frequently asked questions
How much does a Vela travel package cost?
Our Vela packages, which start from just £174, are an awesome way to save money. Choose your preferred hotels, flights and rental car to create a custom-built getaway.
If I'm not able to travel, can I cancel my Vela travel package?
It's hard to predict what the future holds, so it's comforting to know that you can cancel or change your Vela travel package. If you booked in the last 24 hours, you may be eligible for a refund. If it's an older booking, your hotel, airline or car rental company may charge a fee. Visit our Customer Service Portal for more information.
How do I get a cheap travel package to Vela?
If you love getting an amazing deal, bundle your bookings into a Vela holiday package. Whether you're chasing flights, hotels, rental cars or tours, you can book them all in one place. You'll have ample choice at your fingertips as well. Expedia has over 550 air carriers and 1,000,000 hotels around the globe to select from. Fly with who you prefer, stay anywhere you like and save a tidy sum — now that's the ideal escape!
Does Expedia offer Book Now, Pay Later Vela holidays?
Your bank balance shouldn't get in the way of escaping on holiday, so Expedia has come up with a solution to help. Now that we've formed a partnership with online lender Klarna, it's easier than ever to book a dream getaway without making a dent in your savings. Klarna offers flexible payment options at checkout that take the stress out of budgeting for your break. Check out these flexible payment options:
- Pay monthly holidays: Klarna offers convenient monthly payment plans that work for all budget sizes, so you can have that well-earned holiday now.
- Pay in instalments holidays: Into the idea of paying down your holiday in multiple transactions? Then go for this Book Now, Pay Later option from Klarna.
- Low deposit holidays: If paying a small percentage of your trip (rather than the full total upfront) makes it easier to hit that "book now" button, choose a low deposit holiday payment plan with Klarna.
What are the top hotels in Vela?
Get your holiday off to a flying start by locking in a room at Ramada Plaza by Wyndham Craiova. It's one of most popular properties in Vela. Another option is Hotel Helin Central.
How far in advance should I book my Vela holiday?
It's hard to pick the perfect time for airfares, but we normally say the earlier, the better. Plenty of international flights on Expedia become available up to 12 months in advance. If you're booking late, don't stress. Low prices appear from time to time within a few weeks of departure dates.
What does an Expedia Vela travel package include?
That depends on what sort of getaway you're thinking about. Vela travel deals can include car rentals, hotels and flights. You can mix and match to find the travel package that works for you! You can also add on experiences and activities after you've booked to pick up even bigger discounts.
What should I know before booking a Vela travel package?
A travel package can be easier on the credit card than separately booking all you need for your adventure. For example, combine your hotels, flights and rental cars and save a pretty penny. No matter your holiday goals, there's sure to be a package that's right for you.
Can I choose my airline with a Vela Expedia travel package?
Yes, and with over 550 airlines to select from worldwide, you've got lots of choice. Look through the available options and find out which airline suits your budget and needs.
