“Nothing fancy, but OK”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 August 2011

person found this review helpful

The hotel's about a hundred yards up a side street from the main (Unirii) square, so the position's good for what a tourist would probably want to see ((e.g. St Michael's Church in the square, the house where Matthias Corvinus was born, the Ethnographic Museum...). Otherwise it's basic and inexpensive. Nothing fancy.

Depending on what room you're given, you might have a bit of a trek from the front desk to your room.

Staff on front desk helpful and friendly. Room OK. Breakfast nothing to write home about.

I was there on the evening when the restaurant was closed, so I had dinner in a hotel in the square.

“Good rooms for a good price”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 3 May 2011

The room, while basic, was of a good size, very clean, with a large bathroom. The hotel itself was quiet and had a decent selection for the included breakfast. It was a short (<5 minute) walk to the main square of Cluj-Napoca, with a variety of restaurants, bars and shops. The reception staff was friendly and eager to help. Parking is free in a private lot behind the hotel.

“Good value”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 February 2010

Surprisingly quiet and undisturbed, notwithstanding excellent, central location on quite heavily trafficked thorougfare, doubtless a reflection of the "arcade" style; the hotel is reached via an entry off the street with most rooms then facing each other either side of a central courtyard, extending to the rear. Our well heated ( the radiators allowed us to regulate any excess), clean and tidy room ( almost a "suite") was on the first floor and was larger and loftier than expected, including a separate sitting room area with table and chairs together with twin bedded room and bathroom with full suite including an extremely commodius bath tub. Fittings a little plain perhaps, but all you really need including TV, minibar, wardrobe, mirror, phone, fresh towels, toiletries, etc. Attention to detail was a little lacking, ie not enough electric sockets ( why have a mini bar and bedside light that are not plugged in?!) but this was solved via the arrival of extension cables. Staff almost universally helpful, friendly and attentive, especially Mr Zoltan on Reception. A generous breakfast was provided- the usual cold cuts, cheese, fruit, bread rolls, coffee, juices, yogurt, hard boiled eggs plus a limited, albeit welcome hot selection. A nice touch was the provision of a packed breakfast on our departure, ready for collection at Reception for our 0400 start to make the early flight. The restaurant also provided evening meals and although we tried this and found it OK, we preferred to explore other "speciality" restaurants in the limited time available to us. Other guests seemed to involve a range of ages. On the whole very good value at 190 lei per twin room per night including breakfast, although prices may be increasing. This was our first trip to Romania and I'm sure it will not be our last. One tip, at least for UK visitors, is that we got a much better rate changing money in Cluj than we did at home.
