BulgariaThe hotel and suites are very nice and cozy, like Nordic interior style, very nice, good bathroom cosmetics present and some small but important stuff like bathrobes and shoe cleaning kit. Personnel is very helpful, Dana and other guys doing great job! Also breakfast is good and they have lactose free cow milk for coffee machines by default which is good. Also it’s very good located. Very good experience ❤️

NorwaySpectacular building, facilities, breakfast and staff. Absolutely stunning architecture and design in a pre-war bank and with helpful, charming staff. Staff were helpful in arranging same-night dinner bookings and spa treatments. The breakfast was one of the best hotel breakfasts I've had the pleasure of enjoying. This is the kind of hotel that sets the standard.

FAQs about hotels in Bucharest
Where Modern Meets Old
A fascinating mix of old and new, Bucharest is one of those cities where you can find a futuristic structure of glass and steel next to an old church, separated by a Communist-style massive edifice. Not overwhelmed by its dark past, the city is now turning its optimistic face towards the West.
Undergoing constant modernisation processes, the city continually changes and new modern structures pop up in the city centre and beyond. Great examples are the stunning Basarab Bridge, Europe’s widest cable-stayed bridge, and the City Gate Towers.
Whilst admiring the new, don’t miss out on the old classics, like the Parliament Palace, the world’s second largest building, with over 3100 rooms and impressive marble interiors covering 330,000 m². Make sure you admire the view from Nicolae Ceauşescu's balcony!
To fully appreciate the city’s long history, from Vlad the Impaler (aka Dracula) to the ’89 revolution, the city offers free guided walking tours, giving you a great opportunity to discover all the city’s secrets. And spot all the best shopping venues!
Before you land at Bucharest Airport, just 18 km from the city centre, make sure you check what Booking.com has to offer: from hotels to apartments, just a few clicks away!

Bucharest is a beautiful, vibrant city full of life. It boasts wide avenues, large and well-maintained parks, lakes and plenty of green spaces. There are numerous museums and impressive monumental buildings worth visiting. The city offers a wide variety of excellent food at very reasonable prices.

The old town, with all its attractions, and the Ceaușescu Palace.
I liked the restaurant "Caru' cu bere" and the street food "Luca" in Bucharest.
It was easy to get around Bucharest with public transportation.

Guest review by Rachel - Dining options
Bucharest was not what I expected. On my arrival, I commented that if I didn't know any better, I would have thought I was in Paris. I later learned that the city is known as the 'Paris of the East'. It was a great city to walk around, with beautiful Eastern Orthodox churches on every corner, great little eateries/bars and quirky museums like the Little Paris Museum, the Museum of the Art Collector and the Dimitrie Gusti National Village Museum, alongside larger national art, history and natural history museums. The local food is pleasant if you like dense sausages and cabbage, but every second restaurant is a pizzeria or burger place to cater for tourists. It is a very cheap city. Your money goes far. You are also perfectly located to do day trips to other Romanian must-see places like Transylvanian Bran Castle (Castle Dracula) and Peles Castle in Carpathian Mountains, the magnificent Slanic Salt Mine in Prahova and we even nipped across the boarder to see some sights in Bulgaria. Bucharest is a real gem of a city that perfectly blends old Parisian Belle Epoque vibes with Communist Eastern Bloc architecture. Don't sleep on this city! Book it now!

I was surprised by how chaotic the city was. Traffic was awful - allow for delays when planning a return trip to the airport. We found a central hotel that made it easy to walk around. The old town is quaint. We visited a beautiful book store, Cărturești Carusel, which is great to browse around even if you don't buy anything. There is a cafe that serves cocktails on the top floor. For lunch, just a few metres up the road, I can highly recommend Caru' cu bere. The Gothic interior is stunning and the food excellent. It was a little pricey, but worth it.
If time allows, also visit the Therme Bucaresti to relax in the pool and saunas.

Guest review by JIMENA - Dining options
My experience in Bucharest was highly disappointing, and I would not recommend it as a tourist destination. The city leaves a very dark, grey, and sad impression. The streets are visibly dirty, and many buildings appear to be completely neglected and falling apart. Navigating the city is extremely difficult because many streets lack proper signs, making it very hard to orient yourself.
The biggest issue, however, is the local attitude towards visitors. The people are generally very impolite, cold, and unfriendly. If you need help or basic information about the bus, metro, or directions, nobody will assist you; everyone acts as if they know nothing or simply ignores you. Even when speaking in English, communication is nearly impossible, and locals look at tourists with visible contempt and hostility, making you feel completely unwelcome and uncomfortable as a paying visitor.
Additionally, finding authentic Romanian food is surprisingly difficult. The culinary scene seems completely dominated by Italian food, with pizza and pasta everywhere instead of local cuisine.
Bucharest is simply not a beautiful or tourist-friendly city. There are far better destinations with beautiful architecture and much warmer, more hospitable people. I will definitely not be returning.

Guest review by Maurice - Architecture and historic buildings
Bucharest is a huge, sprawling city. It is full of eight-lane main roads connecting huge parks and some stunning buildings. But apart from the National Museum of Art, what is there to sight-see? That said, the city seems safe and is very vibrant. The public transport is fantastic, but where does it take the tourist? Any list of best-things-to-do include Bran's Castle ...which is hours away and a waste of time unless you stay in Brasov (which is a characterful, smaller city some 2 hrs 30 mins away by train, and much better value). The Bucharest Old Town is great for atmosphere but is really just dozens of bars/restaurants clumped together in a tourist trap. We had fun, but I guess I'm done with huge cities!

It's a big city with horrendous traffic at all hours , Get used to the metro it'll save your legs and it's cheap. Well worth walking a lot to see the buildings. Eat the local sandwiches and pasties/pastries there great.
If you have the time take the full day tour to Bulgaria to have a change of scenery.
Local people are very friendly and helpful and a great many speak English.

Great atmosphere, architecture and overall impression. A nice European city you should definitely visit. Careful with the car though, driving there is a mess, feels like too much cars. Public transport is well organized and regular though, also cheap - about 60 cents for a tram ticket. Definitely visit the Palace of Parliament, Museum of Romanian Peasant and Houses (you feel like time stood still). Also a very good city for weekend breaks and family trips.

Bucharest is an interestng city. Excellent dining and great architecture. The National Village Museum is a must. Loads of churches and museums worth a visit. HOWEVER, if you need a taxi either book it through your hotel reception or call an UBER or BOLT, through their apps. NEVER get a street taxi as they are exageratedly expensive.

Travel around the city is great. The Metro is fast and direct. Buses are cheap and reliable, and if you fancy a private taxi, download the 'Bolt' app for cheap and safe taxis.
There are some amazing places to eat and drink across the city but the area around Unirri Square is the best for nightlife.

Best museums: muzeul Taranului, muzeul satului (in a park location), museum de istorie.

I don't need it because I just need to go to center where my acomodation was and I walk around. Bucharest got incredible beautiful Therm SPA. We spent there all our last day in Bucharest. Is close to Airport as well. We have nice days to explore city and get some trips by couch and we spend nice evenings in lokal restaurants.

Just because we had a bad experience with our accommodation, It doesn't mean is bad everywhere, I strongly advice people who wants to travel, to do their due diligent work, make sure you know where you going by reading the reviews, and search the history of those reviews and how genuine they are. Overall, I do recommend this beautiful city and it's attractions.

Guest review by Anna15S - Museums and history
Bucharest, such a lively and interesting city where old traditions, history, and modern life come together. You can see beautiful historic buildings, impressive communist-era architecture, modern cafés, and busy streets. A guided tuk-tuk tour is a great way to explore most points with ease.
One of the most famous attractions is the Palace of the Parliament, one of the largest buildings in the world. The Old Town, with its narrow streets, restaurants, cafés, and historic buildings is not be missed. Parks, museums, there's something for everyone. My favorite, the Romanian Athenaeum, is an absolute beauty!
Bucharest is also a great for day tours. From the city, you can visit Bran Castle, often associated with the Dracula legend, and Peleș Castle, a beautiful royal castle in the Carpathian Mountains. Another popular trip is to Sinaia, a charming mountain town surrounded by beautiful scenery. You can also explore Snagov Monastery, located on an island north of Bucharest, or visit nearby traditional villages to experience Romanian culture and countryside life. Liberty Bear Sanctuary, Transfăgărășan, Salt Mine, Constanta and Black Sea trips should definitely be on your list.
Overall, Bucharest offers something for everyone, from history and architecture to food, nightlife, nature, and exciting day trips outside the city.

Guest review by Alexandra - Transport and taxis
Bucharest has multiple elegant and beautiful churches/ religious buildings throughout the city. There's a lot to see, but after a day of walking around, I felt I'd already seen all the main sites. You can easily explore all the main buildings and cultural sites in 2 days.
I personally loved the second-hand/ thrift shops, as there are so many and they had a really nice selection of clothes.
One place I really loved eating was "Casa de Tacos" (they have multiple locations in Bucharest) for their portion sizes, prices and the selection of food. The restaurant itself also had a very fun and decorated feel to it, and the staff was friendly. I also recommend the LUCA cafés/ pastry shops for a quick and tasty bite to eat.
The public transport there was very easy to use with a tap-and-go system and the fares were very cheap (less than 1€ for bus and metro). Ubers were sometimes interesting as I found that a lot of drivers smoke whilst driving, but ask permission first in case it bothers you.
I have friends living in Bucharest who showed me the drag queen and queer scene which was surprisingly very good, considering Romania is a very religious country. The gay nightclubs are very fun and the community is very friendly and happy to meet foreign people.

It was ok. Everything about Bucharest was very exaggerated. you can do this city in 2 days we went to Therme it was OK very busy so not the best. We went to see the castles, which were very small in comparison to those in neighbouring countries. Romania doesnt have anything of its own - I would love to see a Nadia Cominch museum that would be great and a real ability to embrace a home grown hero.

Guest review by Nadine - Transport and taxis
A big city with much to do. This review is mostly written from the point of view of a wheelchair user. For able bodied people, I would highly recommend! Issues I had were that there are no dips in footpaths and the drop is substantial. Also, a lot of them are in poor repair with cracks that make it harder to transverse with a wheelchair. Public transport is good by bus, most of them have a ramp. However, it depends on which driver you meet as a lot of them wouldn't come out to manually lower it for us so we had to lift up a very big step up. I have found Romanian people very friendly and helpful, most of them would offer assistance. You will find wheelchair accessible toilets mostly only in big shopping centers, just be aware that you can mostly not lock them. We have not found any wheelchair accessible toilet in old town, and we asked in lots of places. We visited the Palace of Parliament which was accessible, but also does not have a wheelchair toilet. I feel the lack of facilities is something that should be addressed as it is a lovely place to visit! You don't see many people there in wheelchairs which I guess is partly the reason it isn't done.

Bucharest is a very beautiful and old city. The contrast between the old and new buildings is evident.
People are very kind and helpful.
Old Town is beautiful and easy to get to.
Local food is delicious.
The areas around the city center and the Old Town are very clean and well-maintained.
Unfortunately, during my stay, the area around the airport (Baneasa) was under renovation, so it was difficult to find the right bus; I ended up taking the Bolt.

Guest review by Aditya - Transport and taxis
I would definitely suggest Bucharest for young people, not for families.
The city has beautiful architecture like the Athenaeum, the parliament, churches, etc, and the public transport is very cheap. Good and affordable food can be found almost everywhere.
Although, the public transport infrastructure has a lot of room for improvement. You compensate for the quality by paying less. The seats on the airport-city train are very dirty, and so are the washrooms. City buses are frequent, but not punctual. Sometimes they never arrive, hence not reliable if you are on a time crunch. Most of the airport is under construction, and the route to get to the car rental parking or city train is absolutely NOT wheelchair/baby-stroller accessible. This is important to keep in mind while traveling with a baby.
The park near Arcul de triumf is quite pretty, but the water in the lake stinks, so I recommend staying away from the lake area. The old city is amazing.

Guest review by Maria Antal - Transport and taxis
Bucharest is a complex city, with both good and bad aspects, although for me the positives definitely outweigh the negatives. The biggest downside is the traffic. there are a lot of cars, noise, and drivers can be quite aggressive at times.
On the positive side, it's a vibrant and dynamic city with plenty of great restaurants, nightlife, and always something new to discover. From a business perspective, it's a strong hub for networking, events, and opportunities, making it a great place for entrepreneurs and professionals.
Overall, it's a city that keeps growing and evolving, attracting people from all over the world and offering a diverse mix of cultures, experiences, and food. That being said, summers can be extremely hot, which isn't ideal considering how much of the city is covered in concrete.
Overall, I'd rate Bucharest a 3.5 out of 5. It's not perfect, but it's a city with a lot of energy, opportunities, and potential.

I stayed just a couple of days and was enough to see most of the main attractions. I recommend dedicating 1 day to the city and another day to travel to Brasov and the castles. Overall a really nice city, and really cheap too.

Guest review by Jill - Cost and prices
We had a fantastic 4-day stay in Bucharest and thoroughly enjoyed every moment. The city was vibrant, welcoming, and full of interesting places to explore.
One of the highlights of our trip was visiting Therme Spa, which was absolutely amazing. It was the perfect place to relax and unwind, with beautiful pools, saunas, and a wonderful atmosphere. Would definitely recommend, although it’s not cheap inside, it’s still worth it.
We also really enjoyed our trip to Transylvania. The scenery was stunning, and visiting the beautiful historic towns and castles made it a memorable experience. It was definitely one of the highlights of our stay.
Overall, Bucharest was a fantastic destination for a short break, offering a great mix of culture, sightseeing, relaxation, and adventure. We would happily visit again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for an enjoyable city break.

Guest review by Januszczyk - Cost and prices
Lots to do. Easy to get transport or walk to places. A very clean city and such friendly people. Also cheap eating out, drinks, transport etc. Not a typical touristy place, everyone should visit. The King's House restaurant on the corner of the same street as Michaelangelo hotel is a great place to eat or Ryan's bar in the old town

Guest review by Ella - Cost and prices
The food prices don't match the quality (in the Old Town). What really annoyed me is that restaurants and cafes add a service charge of 2 to 4 euros at their own discretion. And it's not written anywhere. That's unpleasant.

Bucharest is a city that surprises you. It combines historic buildings, wide boulevards, and beautiful parks with a lively modern atmosphere. The old town is full of bars, restaurants, and cafés, perfect both during the day and in the evening. Prices are very affordable compared to other European capitals, and the people are friendly and helpful. Public transport connections are also excellent. An ideal destination for a weekend or a longer holiday. Highly recommended!

Guest review by Rod - Cost and prices
The transport system is very good especially using the 72 hour integrated ticket which covers buses, trams and metro.
There are plenty of seafood and pizza restaurants in the outskirts which are cheaper than the busy cafes in the Old Town.

We had a great stay at this iconic hotel in Bucharest. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful and we felt very welcomed. The rooms were clean and spacious and had a wonderful view over the city and the bed was super comfortable! All the main sights of Bucharest were within walking distance including the old town, Victory Avenue and Revolution Square. There is a metro station right beside the hotel too. Breakfast was also very generous. I would definitely stay here again!

The Novotel Bucharest is conveniently located near the Old Town, with many monuments, parks, and attractions within walking distance. Do keep in mind that travelling to the hotel can take almost an hour during peak traffic hours. The rooms are comfortable and well maintained, and the breakfast was good with a decent selection. Overall, I had a pleasant stay and would definitely recommend this hotel.

+ The staff were really friendly
+ Our room was big, had really good A/C and a private balcony (it was almost +40 Celsius in Bucharest during our stay)
+ The area was quiet and about 20min walk to the Old town. There also were some nice pubs and restaurants nearby and a small shop was less than 5min walk away.
+ Breakfast was good and versatile considering this is a family run hotel

The hotel was beautiful outside and inside but the rooms weren't 5 star. I would give it 4 star hotel at most.
Ive stayed at the radisson blue in Bucharest and that is value for your money and true 5 star hotel.
