Old Town Luxury Suites

Unfortunately we found cockroaches in the bathroom area every night. It made it difficult to enjoy our stay. In a response to our Booking.com review they seemed a little annoyed that we had flagged this and placed the blame on another building rather than apologising and accepting responsibility. This may well be a one off but given the poor handling of our complaint I would struggle to recommend this property as there are lots of lovely properties in Bucharest which are far cheaper and hopefully no risk of cockroaches!

Loved the property and was able to relax as soon as we walked in. The location is perfect as you're right on top of a caffe, and just about anything you need within walking distance of the location.

First, never stayed at this property concert before, No front desk staff, but that said when I called HOLT, they handled things. That’s a positive. Yuh do need to buy insurance through them, although optional you never know what will be claimed after the fact from a country location you don’t live. I did get locked out of building, but it got resolved. Location was central to everting. Roiom very nice. A/C unit was odd to operate, but fashionable. Lots of positives, but it is a unique experience and thus enjoyed. Sorry if this seems mixed, but it’s different to traditional stay.

So, this was our first time at a staffless hotel. Generally, we really enjoyed our stay and appreciated how thoughtfully everything is arranged. There still is room for improvement. PROs: 1) Staffless. This can be a PRO as much as a CON. It really feels nice when you feel like the place is your home, you come and go without being looked at by anyone, without unnecessary small talk, etc. Really suitable for introverts :) 2) Attention to details. The place is really thought through. You have your own iron, ironing board, tv (with Netflix), kettle, coffee-maker, tea, coffee capsules, sugar, coffee cups, mugs, wine glasses, water glasses, a couple of welcome snacks, a make-up table, toiletries (though I'll talk about these in the con section), cotton pads and buds, extra tp, a blow-dryer, towels, etc. All the essentials are there (except for bathrobes). 3) Clean The place really feels and is clean. I am usually very cautious about using hotel towels, about sleeping on hotel pillows, etc. This place didn't feel icky even a bit. They care about cleanliness and it shows. 4) Location. No joke, I can't imagine a better location in Bucharest, especially if the goal of your stay is to just relax, walk, bar-hop in Old Town. We had a room with a balcony and you are literally looking at Manuc's Inn from your balcony. It is quiet, though, surprisingly. 5) Beautiful. The place really is so so pretty. They kept the room theme, and even your airconditioner is a picture frame that matches the whole theme, and the ironing board too. Again, nicely thought-through. CONs: 1) Stafless. Yes, this can be a CON as well. Our code wasn't active when we arrived (although we agreed in advance that we arrive earlier and would need to store our baggage before we check-in). We had to call HOLT standing next to the closed doors (it was chilly outside, so we were cold and standing with our luggage trying to call someone to let us in was not the most desired way to begin our stay). The guy we got on the line quickly got us a new code and we got in with no problem after, but it just wasn't a great start. 2) Toiletries. The handsoap was full, but the toiletries in the shower (shampoo, bodywash and conditioner) were almost empty. We had our own, so didn't have to bother anyone. I am sure they would have replenished the liquids if we contacted them, we just didn't need to. However, would be nice if this was taken care of before people check-in, without having to request it during their stay. 3) The iron. It was glitchy and leaking. Again, we weren't attentive enough when reading about the facilities, so we didn't even expect the iron to be there and took our own, so didn't have to contact HOLT. However, there is a chance you are getting a glitchy iron. 4) The contract. You need to sign an electronic contract before you check-in, and that is okay. I just was very cautious about this one point in the contract (I think it was nr 23) that you agree that anybody from HOLT staff can enter the room at any time with or without you being there. This leads me to the next con. 5) No safe. There was no safe in the room, so we didn't leave our valuables in the room. 6) Luggage storage If you arrive before your check-in time, they offer you to store your luggage using just something reminding a bycicle rack. I would suggest swtiching to actual lockers, it would feel safer. Yes, nobody can take my bags as they are locked together by the handles, but I don't see why they can't open my bag and take something from it. The camera doesn't seem to be pointed exactly at the baggage either. All in all, I really do recommend you to stay here if you are looking for a place in Bucharest, you will not be disappointed.

Very nice and cozy apartment directly across the street from the parliament. Short walk to the old town, about 10 minutes. There are also restaurants, cafes and small shops in the neighbourhood. The nearest neighbor is a public building (Romanian Intelligence Service) and the neighborhood is perceived as very safe and calm. The apartment has everything you need, including effective air conditioning, a well-equipped kitchen, a comfortable bed and TV with streaming services. And is excitingly decorated with many fine details. Petru is a star who is easy to get in touch with, answers quickly to all questions and is very service oriented. 25 points to Gryffindor Will definitely rent from Holt again if the opportunity arises Thank you for having us.

The apartment was super clean in the great location, just in the old town. I happened to visit during very hot days but the AC was doing its jobs and it was very pleasant. there is a little fridge and tv with Netflix. Highly recommend and I’ll definitely stay again if I happen to be in Bucharest.

If you go to Bucharest you have to stay at The Holt in Old Town, Bucharest. The location and facilities are just perfect . They were very accommodating letting me do a slightly early check in which made all the difference . The room was clean and beautifully decorated, they have literally thought of everything. I also slept very well and the hotel was very quiet considering it is in the heart of the Old Town . I will most certainly stay there again and also visit Bucharest again as I just loved it so much .

- Appartment is beautiful. - Location is great especially when you want to experience the night life. - Bedsheets and shower were clean. One👎 - The mattress and pillows are way to hard! - I give the bed a 4 (score).

Todo fue muy bien, lo mas que me interesa es dormir bien y es uno de los pocos alojamientos bien aislados contra el ruido de la calle.

The rooms are absolutely gorgeous and have everything you need for your stay. The location is right in the Old Town so there's lots of restaurants and bars nearby. The communication with staff before and during our stay to make sure check in and check out was smooth was brilliant too. We had a suite on the top floor (there is no elevator fyi) and the room was very spacious with a huge skylight window.
