The hotel offers spacious, clean, and comfortable rooms. However, on Fridays, noise from hotel functions can disturb sleep until late. The staff is nice and kind, but there is no business center for scanning documents. The location is very practical, although there are many options available for the price.

The hotel is amazing, offering huge rooms with a comfortable sitting area, top-notch amenities, and a fantastic breakfast. However, the service lacked local knowledge, even though they were apologetic. The location is fabulous for exploring key sights of the city. The dining experience, while good and varied, had a somewhat limited selection. Overall, a great stay with a few areas for improvement.

My stay at the hotel was truly remarkable. The rooms had a nice view and were incredibly large with a mattress that felt like sleeping on a cloud. The breakfast was excellent, and the room decor was impeccable. However, being located above the hotel's event space meant I had to contend with a nightly DJ, making it impossible to sleep early.

I found the hotel to be absolutely fabulous with spacious and well-equipped rooms, spotlessly clean throughout, and in a very central location, perfect for exploring Bucharest. However, the dining experience was not exceptional, and the service lacked the expected warmth and assistance.

I was impressed by the surprisingly large and well-equipped Junior Suite I stayed in. It had everything from a kettle to robes and slippers, making my stay very comfortable. The cleanliness was impeccable, reflecting the overall high standard of the hotel.
Service

Unfortunately, I felt that the service, including the pick-up driver and staff, lacked the friendliness and helpfulness I anticipated. Their responses were abrupt, and they did not provide much assistance or information about the city. This aspect left something to be desired during my stay.
Location

The location of the hotel is excellent, being very central and just a short distance from the old town. It offers great accessibility to explore the city with ease, especially with the University metro station nearby. However, I felt that the area lacked some character compared to other parts of Bucharest.
Dining

The dining experience, particularly in the basement cafe, did not match the luxury of the hotel. While the continental breakfast was decent, it was not remarkable for an establishment of this caliber. I would have preferred a more refined dining atmosphere to complement the overall experience.

I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The rooms were incredibly spacious and beautifully decorated, offering the most comfortable bed I have ever slept in and a luxurious bathroom. The service was top-notch, with staff going above and beyond to meet our needs. The location was perfect, making it easy to explore the city on foot and visit key attractions. While the dining experience had a good variety of foods, the lack of proactive coffee service was a minor flaw. Overall, a fantastic choice for a memorable stay.
