“Really nice hotel in a somewhat mediocre Town”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 March 2011
1
person found this review helpful

The best thing about this hotel? The staff. I have never met such nice and friendly hotel personnel and i have done my share of travelling. They really go out of their way to make you feel warm and comfortable without being intrusive.

The room was very nice and reasonably priced. This is not a 5 star hotel but you get the quality you hope for in a 4 star hotel. There is a lot to like about this hotel; from the fast, efficient laundry service, to the free high speed internet, etc. I know they have a sauna in the basement too but as i did not make use of this, i'll refrain from commenting on it.
Lobby was nicely cooled something you will appreciate in the very hot Romanian summer.
The restaurant does a good job of the meals they offer. I'd heartily recommend their steak.

Downsides?
I found the decor in the lobby a bit dark but thats a matter of personal preference i guess and the menu selection I would have liked to be wider. Oh, and the location is just ok. Nothing to make you go wow, this is a really nice location

Conclusion
A great hotel that I'd recommend anytime

“The Staff are Great, treated me like family.”

I had such a great stay. The staff were very helpful,.
I really loved the look of the lobby and bar........it was so beautiful. The room was cool too, very clean.
I didn't get a chance to try that much of the food, .....had so many places to go, but what I did try, was great!
I was able to chit chat with the staff here and there, and they just were so nice to me. I really felt like I knew them, and wanted to come back to just hang out with them. :)
Would recommend this hotel, definitely. :)
I read some of the other reviews and after being in the travel industry, staying in hotels night after night, 4 days a week, the most important to me, is the service and cleanliness of the room, not necessarily the bed. Sure a comfy bed is a plus, but I know from experience that a lot of countries have different ideas of comfy beds. Some people have different requirements on what kind of bed they can handle also. So to say your stay was awful because of a bed, is just narrow minded. Your not looking at the big picture.
The thing to look for is service, and cleanliness, which were perfect for me. Then you look at the area to see if it's in the right location for what you want, or if there's adequate transportation to get you to where you want to go. The staff were so nice to help me figure that out. There's plenty of taxi's there, or it's a nice pretty walk.

“Awful Bed/Hard mattress”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 July 2010

Although the room was very clean and the staff was helpful, the bed was very hard and I could not sleep the whole night. A comfy bed is an essential piece of furniture in a Hotel, especially in a 4 star hotel. And you could still hear all the noise from traffic which is odd for a US hotel standard.
The taxi service offered by the hotel was exceptional, though.
Anyway, if it wasn't for the bed/ very hard mattress, I would have recommended this hotel.

“A W F U L !”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 March 2010

The first step in to the lobby and you get to see what a mistake you've made....
Kitsch is such a mild word....
Service is a nightmare....
Coffee so bad you can't imagine.
Standard room is some sort of toilet-size thing in the attic, so low you can't stand and with a smell... what a smell.
If you have special requirements, well ... expect it to take long time: till it's done or long time till you are explained why it's not possible (like normal milk in the coffee) or long numbers on the bills if it's done sometimes (like a fish dish on your table)

“Great value, clean, big room - what more could you ask for?”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 4 June 2009
1
person found this review helpful

We paid 45 Euros for a one night stay in May 2009. The room was big and it was clean. The bed was comfy, there was a decent TV and free (and fast) wireless internet. The furniture was basic and there were no toiletries in the bathroom - but at 45 Euros it would be unfair to expect more. As noted in other reviews a taxi to the centre is just over £1 or you can walk it in 20 minutes.

Overall a comfortable stay at a very good price in a nice town.
