The rooms were super quiet and felt sound proof! This was so nice and allowed us to relax in the peace and quiet

Simon United Kingdom

Great location,great food and atmosphere downstairs

Cristian United Kingdom

The wellness area is excellent, the breakfast is good, and the location is good. I've been there twice. The 1st time I stayed for 3 nights - the room was excellent. On the 2nd time, i stayed for 1 night and the room was of poor quality.

Gal Israel

Knight8988 Denmark

Staff is nice and friendly. Location is very central, although I like Hilton's/Radisson's more (on Calea Victoriei). This hotel used to be a legend for us growing up in Bucharest.

Razvan Cyprus

Main things we liked: 1. Pool & Jacuzzi on the 22nd floor! Good stuff. 2. Friendly and pleasant staff - attentive and ready to help (we got room service in the middle of the night, and they were super nice about it). 3. Location is great - close to all the interesting things.

David Israel

Always loved coming to this hotel! Newly renovated room and yum breakfast.

Laura Australia

The hotel lies within walking distance of the centre. Rooms are spacious and the beds really comfortable. The rooms afford great views of the city and its landmarks. It's always a pleasure to stay at this hotel, which became something of an institution during the cities more recent history.
