“Unique is unique with GREAT staff and a quiet location”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 July 2011

First off I have to say that the staff is really helpful and friendly. They all speak perfect English and go out of their way to help you. Elena, Victor and the other staff members are GREAT! They have good personalities and are a joy to speak with. The hotel has no parking to speak of, but there is no parking in Bucharest at all! So if you are in a rental car, you'll have to park in the street. But you may get lucky and there is enough room to park about two cars there. So just walk and take the metro or a taxi. Unlike the other hotels in Piata Romana, this one is off the main streets and is in a much more quiet location. This is a great so you can get a good night's sleep. There is a GREAT restuarant just up the street and a smaller restaurant cafe type also close by. You are close enough to the main part of Piata Romana to get other items you need. You are in walking distance to the Enescu museum and the Ateneul Roman. Also, there are other good restaurants in this area that you can walk to. What is nice about Hotel Unique is that the rooms have laminate flooring. It gives a MUCH better sense of clean when you are staying there. Knowing that the floor is mopped everyday is nice and you don't have to worry about the quality of the carpet like you would at other hotels. This hotel does not have a restaurant, but they provide a buffet style breakfast which is of good quality. If you are okay with your hotel not having a restaurant, then this hotel would be a great choice. Since I was there on a photography excursion, the staff was nice enough to let me use some of their more expensive rooms for some photo shoots for free! You can't beat service like that! The hotel is definitely a three star hotel, but it is clean, quite and staffed with good people. If you want to see the local sites, the staff will tell you where to go and even make the reservations for you. If your taxi cab driver doens't speak English, the staff will tell him where to take you. I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone who is staying in Bucharest. Sure there are nicer hotels in Bucharest, but if you want a nice, quiet, quaint place to stay with great staff, you can't beat Hotel Unique!

+ Not 4* hotel, but good location, good value /quality.
Staff friendly

We are definitely sure that you have the money in your account. They were there from the begging, the amount was only blocked for our company but nobody took them from them. It is only a longer procedure from the banks, but the details from the card are only for guarantee purposes and never for charge (only in case of No-Shows or for leaving the hotel without paying we charge the card - this are international procedures in all hotels)

“Wonderful little Boutique Hotel in Bucharest”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 May 2011
2
people found this review helpful

We stayed at Hotel Unique for our first 3 nights in Romania and in Bucharest. It was more than we expected for the reasonable price. It was easy to get to on #783 express bus from the airport. 7 lei for 2 people or about $3.00 USD for 2. It took a little over a half hour from the airport to Romano Square where it was about a 2 block walk to the hotel. Very easy to find. For $23.00 Euros rhey would send their car to the airport.It was in a nice quiet neighborhood and was convenient to all the tourist spots either by walking, taxi or the bus.
Our room was basic,but very clean and well appointed. Breakfast was a high spot every morning with eggs, meat, cold cuts a wonderful tomato salad fruit, and bread that wasn't basic white bread.

Staff was very friendly and helpful. They arranged for our tickets to the Parliment Building.
The staff spoke good English.

“dated hotel - 2 or 3 star not 4 - ripped us off”

I had 2 drinks here - they charged us 4 times the price as the night before when we had drinks on the square in Sighosoara. I was shocked. I addressed it but staff were not interested. Rip off.

We were happy to have you as our guests. I am very sorry that you appreciate our hotel only after the prices from the drinks from the bar. I will have to say that our prices from the bar are strongly normal and these are price for bars in Bucharest. We are talking about the bar from the City Center of the Capital of Romania - it can not be compared with the prices from a small town from Transilvania. Any way the prices are impossible to be 4 times higher than in the bar you said in Sighisoara because of the buying cost that we have.
I must assure you that you payed the correct price and the receptionist is not able to negotiate the prices.

“groundsolid place to stay”

Hotel Unique is located a bit north of piata romana and a nice place to be. The staff is very very friendly and helpful. The rooms are comfortable. We spent 3 days there, had quiet nights, beside the typical dog barking in Bucharest and dont have a thing to claim. Of course, the breakfast there won't get famous, but considered the well-priced rates, it was okay.
