Abstract: Romanian Tourism has undergone considerable changes in the transition to the market economy. These changes, together with the inappropriate solutions adopted by the authorities, led to an unsatisfactory performance of the Romanian tourism, significant differences coming up between what the resort ministry communicates and promotes and the actual state of the Romanian tourism and hotel industry. This situation has also been maintained by poor and erroneous reporting of data by hoteliers regarding the hotels managed to the resort ministry but also by the poor processing of information received by the ministry of resort / NAT, leading to a database of erroneous information regarding the Romanian tourism and hotel industry supply. These data are practically useless for any interested parties, and moreover for those intending to use the facts especially for opening a new business in the hospitality industry. This paper aims at presenting a much closer to reality statistical summary of the hotel industry,bringing into the limelight the accommodation units that operate without classification certificates and which are not fully taken into account by the NIS.
