Nice hotel with nice location.
However, our toilet didnt flush properly sometimes and the music during breakfast was very fast and koud party music (but they changed the playlist when asked for it).
Stayed in room 409 for 3 nights. A little small, but fine for one or two people. Big bed. Very hard mattress but slept surprisingly well.
Room temperature very hot (26-27 degrees) so had to open widows often. Air con didn’t seem to work. Bathroom was aged but functional. Shower pressure good. Could do with a deep clean or refurb.
Breakfast was basic. Usual continental, yogurts, ham/turkey and cheese, with some hot options. OK but not great.
The restaurant was much better for dinner. Very good, lots of options and good service.
Quirky interior, interesting lift, and lots of original art throughout the lobby and floors. Nice touch.
Overall my stay was pleasant and value for money. Would stay again.
Lovely hotel with helpful staff in a great location in Bucharest! The rooms were spacious and comfortable and the breakfast in the morning was delicious. Carpet was a little bit old and my fridge leaked, but other than that I had a lovely stay in the food in room service was excellent. Highly recommend this hotel and I will stay again whenever I get back to Bucharest.
The art and deco were amazing and well put together. Front desk were amazing and helpful. Romeo top notch helpful with our luggage and directing us to our rooms. I will say that the breakfast staff were not as friendly as you would expect, that was the only downsize of the hotel otherwise everything was amazing.
Great location - approx 10/15 minute walk to the Old Town and then several coffee shops just outside hotel.
Hotel room lovely - lots of amenities. Only thing to note is that bathroom slightly run down, paint pealing and needs resealed.
Staff lovely and friendly. We speak English and English really great!
Breakfast - standard breakfast. Plenty of choice and included in room rate.
Approx 20 minutes from Airport. Overall enjoyed our stay and would stay again!
The staff and the accommodations were very nice. Exactly what we had hoped for to round off a 10 day trip through Romania. However, we were perplexed and surprised about the response when another guest was pounding on the door down the hall at 4am and woke the whole floor up. Additionally, the walls are quite thin and sound carries... Fully recommend this establishment, but hope they reckon with unruly guests and noise better in the future. :)
Hotel building and decor itself is nice, however having booked a “executive suite” with a bath I discovered on the 1st night there was no hot water. Called reception who sent someone up, water eventually got warm at best after he turned some mains valves on/off.
Second night again no hot water, told reception who said I could change room but I was checking out the next morning. Asked for an alternative solution ie some for of refund to compensate for the fact we didn’t have hot water, reasonable request for a hotel that makes itself out to be upmarket. This was refused and abruptly told they had given me an option. Poor customer service that I’d expect at a budget hotel. Wouldn’t stay here again if I had the choice. Breakfast buffet isn’t great either, tables not being cleaned so nowhere to sit and the food was extremely average. Could have paid less money and stayed somewhere far better.

I was unsure to give 3 or 4 stars in this review but ended up giving 4 because at the end of my stay the manager of the hotel made up for all the issues that happened (broken flush in the toilet as soon as I checked in, no light in the room in one of the nights and then they didn’t fix it the next day as promised, etc) by giving me late check out free of charge. I really liked the hotel room, the bed was sooo big and comfortable, stayed in the top floor with view to the back and it was perfect. The hotel is kinda old style which is nice interior design and specially during Halloween it’s all decorated which is a nice touch. The lift is also old style which is a massive issue tho! If you don’t close the door manually after getting out the lift it wouldn’t work anymore (I was at the very top floor and on 3 occasions had to go all the way down by stairs because someone didn’t close the door of the lift which is really annoying so bear that in mind. Breakfast is ok, nothing specially, could be better quality and variety. Location is great, super central and walkable everywhere, that was a must! There was a weird smell on the corridors tho (like dump with a mix of cigarette smell), they need to fix that. Staff is ok, not extremely friendly but polite. If you have trouble sleeping/don’t like much noise, ask for a room with view to the back, the rooms facing the front (main road) are extremely noisy as it’s located in one of the busiest avenues in the city and there’s a lot of cars.
We stayed for a long weekend. The checkin was quick and efficient. I was somewhat surprised they didn’t want me to leave my credit card details, but they said you pay as you go.
Only 1 lift so sometime it was a bit congested, we were on the 4th floor, although I could walk up and down, my wife has a bad leg and needed to use the lift.
The room was clean and functional. The bathroom had a lot of water pressure, but that meant the tap was noisy unless you had it on “full blast”. There was ample hot water. There were all the usual soap, shower gel etc, but they also left small toothbrush and past and razor should you have forgotten these.
I slept really well, once I’d managed to get the temperature right, the room was very hot. We left the window open, and even though we were facing away from the busy road it was still a bit noisy.
Breakfast, was a little bit poor. The toasters were home versions so slow, and once I had a tepid fried egg and another time it was just cold. So the hot breakfast was a bit hit and miss.
Meat and cheese selection was good, as was the fruit juice and coffee. The tea, I my opinion was too weak, even with 2 bags and a good old soak.
Would I go back, yes, but I might consider paying more for better room facilities/ breakfast.
