Guest Reviews

• Thomas (10/5): - Immaculate property. Big cozy room. CLEAN. Staff went above and beyond. Sooooo friendly and helpful. Walking distance to anything you need or what to do in the city. Honestly great. Will stay here again.
• Jeffrey (10/5): - Really enjoyed our stay
• Freedom48567618343 (10/5): The best customer service imaginable! - We have just returned from what can only be described as a ‘wonderful’ city break courtesy of The Grand Boutique Hotel - Bucharest. The hotel itself is stunning & enriched with history. But the thing that shone the most for us, was the ‘outstanding’ customer service we received. The whole team bent over backwards to ensure we were looked after. Forgive my lack of ability to spell individual names! But a special mention goes out to the receptionist who saved the day & arranged another excursion for us, as we had missed the one previously planned… The lady who looked after us at breakfast was the sweetest, courteous person imaginable. Everyone there made our trip special & memorable. Thank you! And we hope to see you again some time.
• Brendan (10/5): - Really lovely stay and amazing staff!
• james (10/5): Great place to stay. - Lovely old world hotel with character a short walk from the old town. We had a lovely big room with a huge bathroom and had a great night sleep. Nice snug bar for drinks and very helpful staff especially Doina who took care of breakfast. Really felt welcome and would certainly stay here again.
• Verified traveler (6/5): Nice stay. - Fabulously friendly and helpful staff. Nice breakfast. Room spacious but shabby. Heating excessive and uncomfortable. Good location, easy to reach old town.
• Dror (2/5): Do not go there ever!!!! Terrible place to stay! - Terrible experience Squik floor No hotwater Broken bed No room service Asked for blanket - they tell.us go f...k ourselves. No katle No tea Air-condition is NOT WORKING and they refuse to gave. Toilet is freezing, no hit at all Reseptionist is bevy unpleasant and rude
• Verified traveler (6/5): - The building is gorgeous and is lovely to be in but the receptionist was on her phone for much of check in. The bed in our room was really hard and creaky and it felt like most of the fixtures (sink, shower head, taps) were all one use away from falling off. The breakfast situation was a bit unclear - we discovered at check out that omelettes were available every day but there was no indication in the food hall how to get them and we were always in the room for about 20 minutes before there was anyone to ask. Location-wise it's really great and everything is walkable and the building really is beautiful
• Richard (10/5): - Staff at the hotel were amazing, friendly, super helpful amd vety welcoming. Property is a little off the beaten, very easy walk to main areas of Old Town.
• Victoria (10/5): - N/a
• Vlad (10/5): - wonderful
• Tracy (10/5): - Good location stylish rooms. Excellent breakfast with waitress/chef been extremely attentive and helpful
• Alayne (10/5): Staff will look after you well - Lovely boutique hotel - definitely some photo opportunities. Staff were excellent. Thank you to Oana for sorting out my booking mistake and for all your advice. Doina in the dining room was a warm & excellent host. Lovely comfortable bed.
• Steve (10/5): A gem of a place - Lovely oldy worldy boutique hotel full of character. Awesome building full of history. Wonderful cocktail bar and restaurant in the "dungeon". Staff could not have been more friendly and helpful. The room was good for a single traveller, which was what i was. Clean and warm. I would definitely use again. My kind of place but may not suit everyone.
• domingo (10/5): Ancient times experience with modern quality - The hotel is built in an ancient building close to the downtown. It is very well set-up, atmosphere is elegant and antique, but everything is clean and perfectly maintained and useful. Bathrooms are modern and comfortable. Our bedroom had A/C, minibar and TV. Personnel was awesome, the Front-desk receptionist was very fun and frendly. Position is very good, at 10 minutes walking from the restaurants, pubs and nightclubs place.
• Richard Howard (10/5): - It’s a hidden gem! The hotel itself is gorgeous, with a nice lounge/bar area, a nice sitting area outside and it’s on a quiet street. Staff is wonderful and will give you lots of tips on what to do. Many places to eat within walking distance and Old Town, many other museums close by.
• Sophie (10/5): - A beautiful old hotel which was incredibly charming. Really lovely and helpful staff who couldn't do enough for us - would definitely stay again!
• Verified traveler (6/5): - Was told at arrival I would have to move facilities. They did not have opening due to me making reservations 4-6 weeks prior (assuming because it was not made through hotel and price was less). After conversations with staff and Hotels.com, I was allowed to stay. Staff was "chilly" after this encounter. Room was nice. Neighborhood was sketchy at night.
• Natasha (10/5): Our Stay - Loved our stay at the Grand Boutique Hotel. Staff very helpful and super friendly. We loved Romania. Thank you
• Edythe (6/5): Almost there…but not quite. - We stayed at this hotel on two separate occasions in September/October 2024. The rooms were clean and decently appointed but the overall feel was of a tired hotel. Upholstery was worn, curtains were heavy, long and not well hung. The entrance rug would benefit from a good cleaning or replacement. Breakfast was nice but pricy. Nice sitting area outside and decent bar. Staff were helpful and pleasant. Overall, the hotel would benefit from a little TLC….hang the drapes properly, remove some of the knickknacks, repair some of the furniture.
• Mary (10/5): Beautiful stay! - Hotel is gorgeous, full of old world charm. The staff is very friendly and accommodating.
• richj3 (10/5): A great choice for Bucharest! - This is a great choice if you are staying in Bucharest. The staff are top notch. The hotel looks more like a grand mansion than a hotel. Well located and it's easy to walk to many museums and historical places. There were a few places I wanted to see but missed, so when I return to Bucharest, I'll be staying here.
• Duncan (10/5): - Lovely place with tons of old world charm. We stayed a week and found the staff friendly. Easy walk to the old town and also plenty of good restaurants within a short walk. It’s an old building and the floors were very creaky but we like staying in places like this rather than the sterile atmosphere of the big chain hotels. We would stay here again.
• James Lee (10/5): - near old town, 10 minutes walk. Very safe
• Stuart (8/5): - Good breakfast and very boutique feel… maybe a bit too boutique for our taste but a lively hotel with lovely staff
• Philip (10/5): - The decor and staff are a significant plus, a step back in time grandeur andlovely staff. An extraordinar experience. Old town is only 15min walk.
• Jay (10/5): - I loved this hotel. I would definitely recommend the hotel to travelers, but only if you can navigate the streets (either by walking or by bus or by metro) The staff told me that the hotel is about 130 years old, and it still has this old-world charm. But the room was fully up-to-date, with air conditioning (which is not always the case in Eastern Europe), and very clean. The staff was wonderful, though sometimes we had to work at the language barrier a little bit (sadly, it's my fault. I only speak American English and am not bi-lingual). It was a quiet, peaceful stay on a quiet street. The area around the hotel is probably normal for Bucharest, but felt a bit run-down for the American suburban-ite. It was safe, and we walked everywhere, even late into the evening. We simply had to get past our American expectations. I did not eat in the restaurant, so I cannot speak to that.
• Christine (10/5): - Great staff! Beautiful building. Excellent breakfast. Walkable to most sights.
• Maksim (10/5): Great Antique Hotel - I would say that it is now Great Antique Hotel rather than Boutique as it feels really outdated, lots of elements of decoration and furniture need replacement with new ones. Breakfast is OK, they do not serve any food at lunch or dinner. Service is friendly. I had one of the best Romanian wines from their bar and enjoyed it at the patio. Luckily it was a beautiful evening, it was peaceful and quiet.
• Ryan (10/5): - Definitely have to say as a first time traveler to Romania these accommodations were perfect. You are in the central part of the city but perfectly located on a quiet street. Rooms extremely comfortable, very welcoming staff, and fantastic breakfast. Highly recommend.
• Romeo (10/5): - Liked it. Clean. Gorgeous. Staff bent over backwards to cater to my whims. Decor, vibe made my friends briefly wonder whether some uninvited famed vampire will possibly visit my room during the dusk ‘til dawn period. Will definitely return. Highly recommend it.
• Lynn (10/5): Family vacation - Staff was very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was great.
• susan (8/5): Interesting , historic hotel - I would recommend the hotel . It’s an interesting, historic hotel and is walking distance from the Old Town and quiet. Very good breakfast. Staff were very helpful. The hotel had a power cut lasting several hours and this did cause problems as we couldn’t use our rooms . I did think some sort of compensation could have been offered in the circumstances, such as a free breakfast .
• JULIA (8/5): - The staff is very friendly and accommodating. The room and hotel is very clean and comfortable, and I liked the seating areas they have available outside. We did have to change rooms in the middle of the night due to the air conditioning not working. It was very hot and muggy in the room, and while we tried to muster through, it was very uncomfortable. We called the desk and he checked on us and asked us if we wanted to move without a charge. The next room was much cooler and comfortable. They are definitely service oriented!
• Milonga (8/5): A good quiet, central choice in Bucharest. - We wanted a hotel in a quiet location away from the noisy centre of the old town. The hotel was indeed quiet and in a side road. Plenty of hot water and decent wifi. Our room was spacious and spotlessly clean. We liked the idea of staying in a characterful and beautiful old building. The staff were helpful and friendly. It was a 15 minute walk to the old city where there are a number of restaurants and bars. Would definitely recommend.
• Cristian (10/5): - Very unique
• Amy (10/5): - Nice two night stay in Bucharest
• Andrew (10/5): - A beautiful hotel, upon entering it was immediately the grandeur with which they advertise. The staff were all beyond helpful and friendly, a special mention to the lady at breakfast who was wonderful. The room we had was spacious, the air con worked very well without overpowering. It was clean and all the amenities we could have wanted were there. They can arrange trips for you if you so wish and they are more than happy to give advice on things to do. Very helpful staff at reception who were also up for good conversation. Highly recommended!
• Tanyia (10/5): - I stayed at the grand boutique hotel for four nights with my daughter. It is a lovely hotel with really very lovely staff. This was our first time to Romania. breakfast was good and the bed was excellent, as was the room. I would not hesitate to stay here again. I will be visiting Romania again. Classy hotel!
• Verified traveler (10/5): Hotel with personality - So nice to stay in a place with character and the staff were lovely. So helpful. Short walk to Old Town. Reading some other reviews, people seem to think the area is sketchy- but we didn't. We felt perfectly safe even walking back at midnight.
• Dionysios (8/5): - Beautiful old mansion. Friendly staff. Location is not the most convenient or pretty.
• Nurit (10/5): - It was excellent, a beautiful and clean hotel, excellent attitude.
• Louise Alice (8/5): - This is a gem of a hotel. Staff were so informative and friendly . It’s within ten minutes walking distance to old town The hotel is a beautiful old building turned into a stylish boutique hotel Can not recommend this hotel enough
• Todd (10/5): - We stayed there twice during our trip. The building is quite gorgeous, even if a little spooky. The rooms are amazing. It makes you feel that you are living in a palace. For the most part, the staff were very friendly and tried to help. In one room, the air conditioner had problems, which made it uncomfortable for my wife. Another thing is that one has to be careful about parking. There is a lot next to the hotel that costs money. This is where Waze sends you to. The police are eager to give out tickets there so don’t even leave your car there temporarily during the day. There is no need to pay since there is plenty of free parking in the street in front of the hotel. Getting in at night is a little funky with a gate, but just follow the directions. The location is very quiet and central but not in a tourist area itself. It clearly was once a well-off neighborhood. I wish they would restore every building there like they did with the hotel.
• heckfy (10/5): A non chain hotel with a character - On the positive side: Great quiet location a short walk from the old Town Large rooms Clean Character And of course fantastic staff Not so positive Breakfast is ok but could be better Not everyone likes historic buildings with old floors and dark halls. Overall we enjoyed our stay.
• David (10/5): - Stylish hotel on a side street in Bucharest. The staff as friendly and helpful and the furnishings were very appealing. A lot of classic authentic furniture. I had a massive oak desk in my room that made me want to plot world domination from there. All that and a courtyard kitty!
• Paik Swan (10/5): Old world charm and gracious living - Beautiful grand old hotel. Each room is well appointed. Oana at the front desk is so helpful and funny! She took care of special requests and was totally reliable. Doina who managed the breakfast buffet was friendly warm and kind. Will definitely stay there again!
• PAOLO (10/5): - Wonderful historical building, charming interiors. Welcoming staff. Very comfortable for university and airport bus. Surrounding area is not in its best shape.
• Jonatan (10/5): - I had a great stay. Highly recommended
• Evelina (10/5): - Exceptional service!
• RoamingJeff (10/5): Just wonderful. An amazing deal at less than £100 a night - The hotel is an immaculately restored 150 year old mansion on a quiet tree lined street, walking distance to the centre. The common areas are fantastic and you have an idea of the grandeur when you walk in and see the sweeping wooden staircase, antique furniture and artwork. There are only about 12 rooms, all furnished with period furniture. We had a lovely room on the first floor, with gleaming parquet floors, high ceilings, floor length drape curtains, a marble tiled bathroom and an array of comfortable, classic furniture. Breakfast was a good selection of traditional Romanian fare, served next to a cellar room that had genuine suits of armour flanking a gigantic oak trestle table! You'll want to take loads of photos. Staff were excellent - helpful and friendly. It's an amazing deal for less than £100 a night!
• Jay (10/5): - Great room with very nice bathroom.
• Richard Michael (10/5): - Very vintage looking property but to beautiful standard. Large bedrooms, large bathroom. We was very lucky to get a balcony. Staff very friendly and knowledgeable of the area, with plenty a helpful advise on where to visit and eat etc.
• Philip (8/5): - Being tired of American style corporate hotels this made a refreshing change with its style and architecture. It had an extensive shaded outside terrace. The immediate area lacked amenities but it was well located, only about 15 mins walk to the Old Town for example
• Emer (10/5): - Loved this hotel!
• W2383JFdanielab (2/5): Horror experience - Below are few details regarding my stay at this horror place during 5 - 9 February: - No parking place provide by the Hotel, although they advertised it on Booking.com - Room no.4 - wind was blowing inside the room right on the bed through the old and defect window - Room no. 6 (hotel changed room no. 4 after complaint) - water was dripping from the ceiling right in the middle of the room (I have taken few videos to prove). There was a small pool in the room! - Breakfast was served only after 08:00, so it was not useful for me. Hotel didn't refund the money I paid for the breakfast, neither compensate for the money paid in advance for the breakfast with an early breakfast. - Hotel personal rude and impolite. They also refused to put me in contact with Management. - After many days of pushing, hotel owner called me. She denied all above facts I presented her. However, she offered me "a complimentary glass of wine from the hotel, to compensate for all the problems”! What a shame! - Booking.com Customer Service pretended they don't understand my complaint. They did absolutely nothing to mitigate my problems, neither during my stay, nor after. I will never use Booking.com services again. I deleted my account!
• Andrew (10/5): - What a unique beautiful old-world hotel! It is also quite close to Old Town Bucharest - 10 minute walk.
• Verified traveler (10/5): 5* - Great stay, Staff are amazing and helpful. Cleanest hotel i have ever stayed in. Would recommend staying here to anyone and will be retuning.
• Emer (10/5): - Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Grand Boutique. Stunning building, very helpful and friendly staff.
• Hala (10/5): - Great hotel. Not far from the city with close transport links.
• Alan (10/5): - The staff were all incredibly helpful. The rooms were amazing and you got a real feel for the grandeur of Bucharest. Location is good to being close to the old town and an easy walk to most places of interest. Will book again.
• Chris (2/5): - I booked this hotel for a couples retreat in the city. When I arrived to check in everything was going well….until I was asked “are you American?” Then I was told there were no more rooms and they would arrange for me to stay at the Scala Boutique hotel. (Look for my review of it. I recommend it over this one). So I can’t review my stay, but here is my review of my experience. The Hotel is absolutely beautiful and once I was inside the gate on the property I was in love with the building and that continued into the lobby. It is stunning. The surrounding area led to a lot of concerns. There is paid public parking around the corner but even the receptionist said “I wouldn’t park in this neighborhood, even the paid parking”. The street in front of the hotel was completed removed for repairs which made finding the hotel a challenge. The neighborhood is not nice at all, and I didn’t notice anything in the immediate walking area. If you don’t have a car, and you don’t plan on walking anywhere, this hotel could be a great place for a romantic stay.
• Richard Malcolm (6/5): - Hotel ok, staff great, but the location was dreadful. Very rough area and did not feel safe walking at night.
• Agnes (10/5): - The hotel has great character- very old and beautiful , everything inside fits the style of the hotel and they have taken great care to make it like that. Small, boutique hotel so we always felt well taken care of, Oana at reception was great to recommend places to eat, trips to make . Breakfast was also great. Really enjoyed our stay there.
• Verified traveler (10/5): Beautiful grand hotel - The room was amazing, huge with the highest ceilings. The only issues were the wooden floor was SO loud that if you walked on it at night, your partner will wake. Also, the room was astonishingly warm. Staff were amazing, shout out to Oana - you could not ask for nicer, funnier and more helpful front desk staff!
• Lilgem1982 (10/5): 4-night City Break - We booked the Comfort Villa and could not recommend enough. Accessed via the courtyard this standalone apartment was cosy and homely. The hotel itself was striking and the staff were so friendly and accommodating!! We had a day trip on day, leaving early morning prior to breakfast, so they made us a pack-up and made sure we were looked after. We will definitely stay again and would recommend wholeheartedly!
• Deborah (10/5): - Such understated elegance in a beautiful building. The staff is outstanding. Will return soon I hope.
• maiaplisetzkaia (4/5): caution .. - I had booked it for 5 nights. After the first night they told me there was a problem in the system and I had to move to another of their hotels. They didn't even offer to pay for the uber for the transfer, I paid it myself, though it was their error. I was told the other hotel would have the same standard for the same money - total lie. I was given what I thought to be a "spare-room" of some kind, with not all amenities functional, funny smell and suspect noises at night. I hope not mice or bugs, but not sure what it was. The owner of the two hotels, as she proudly presented herself with the air this information should impress me greatly, basically gave me a lecture in hotel management and how difficult it is to work with foreign employees, and how other hotels are worse, and so on, and so on..
• Melvin (10/5): Grand old Romanian hotel - Staff was very helpful. The only thing we didn't like was the walk to Old Town. The area is not the best for walking,but the hotel is a beautiful grand old Romanian hotel.
• Mary (10/5): - Decor and room very attractive. Staff very willing but for example reception had no idea how to buy a bus ticket. Breakfast waitress very pleasant but talked too much for first time in morning and due to that rushing about trying to catch up.
• Deborah (10/5): - Very friendly and helpful staff. Very nice breakfast. Beautiful and charming hitel.
• 880richard880 (10/5): Fantastic stay - Had a fantastic stay here 3 nights from arriving to leaving. Gated hotel walking in to the lobby what a lovely decorated room greets you. The bed room was amazing with huge double doors to the room very quiet. The lady on reception ( Anne Marie) was very welcoming and friendly loved the way she greeted us. The room was huge and the bathroom was equally big. The furniture was perfect for the room and the building. The Breakfast was very nice and Is self serve which is how I like it. Doina the lady on the breakfast did say if there was anything not there we wanted she would get it for us. There was nothing the ladies would do for us even making a packed lunch one day we could not get there in time. Nothing was any trouble for them. Great asset for the hotel. Would recommend and we will be going back.
• Gurpreet (8/5): - Grand and old style building about 10 mins walk from old town. Check in was a little painful (had to ask about safe, WiFi, times etc etc, rather than be told openly) But all good otherwise - and breakfast in particular was great. The lady who runs the breakfast setup is just fantastic.
• Sightseer30183816236 (8/5): Charming and cosy - I loved this hotel! Unfortunately we stayed only one night there. Fin-de-siecle, romantic, creaky wooden floors, huge room (No 4 on the ground floor), Well equipped large bathroom. We loved the barman! Breakfast was a bit disappointig although the lady in charge was very kind and charming. Difficult to understand why breakfast service and hotel are not united but separate entities. I will definitely stay there once again if I return to Bucharest. One of the most charming hotels I have ever visited and I visited a lot of them!
• KevinW359 (8/5): Interesting hotel in historic building - The hotel is set in a grand old house with high ceilings and creaky floors. I thought it would make an interesting change from the bland chain hotels. My room was nice but a little small although the bathroom was a reasonable size. The shower was large but had a peculiar minor issue with the shower base not being bonded properly to the supporting base. A stylish glass sink in the bathroom was accompanied by a very unstylish drainage pipe. The bed had an unusual feel, I suspect it must have had a Tempur topped mattress. I've always wondered about these - it turned out to be comfortable! I suspect it wouldn't be good in a warm room but there was quiet air conditioning in the room meaning that wouldn't be an issue and it wasn't hot during the nights in May. The rooms use standard keys. On the plus side there are room safes and it's a small place and you have to walk past the 24 hour manned reception to get in so that didn't seem like a security problem. Breakfast was fine but below the quality of the majority of hotels I've stayed at. Fruit juice tasted like 50% real juice and 50% water with sweetners, coffee was functional, croissants were good but varied in the degree of baking. There were cold meats and cheese and eggs and I'm sure there was cereal. Good Wi-Fi in the hotel but no signal in the basement where the breakfast room is. Friendly, helpful staff. I avoided the hotel bar as I had read another review about questionable pricing. I discovered Linea on Lipscani Street which is walkable and has a good range (for Bucharest) of spirits and a roof terrace. Bucharest, in general, suffers from a lot of crappy graffiti and neglected buildings. The area immediately around the hotel has some derelict buildings. I asked a few Romanians and they said the city is very safe. A few other reviews mentioned the surrounding area was "sketchy" and not well lit but it seemed fine to me. The hotel is walkable from the 783 airport bus stops. The route is slightly different coming into the city vs going out. The weather was fine so I walked from Piata 21 Decembrie 1989 (aka Revolution Square), there's probably a bus or tram to get nearer from there or from Piata Unirii. To return to the airport use the nearer Universitate bus stop - there's a small sign with red font on a post listing various buses including the 783. If you are taking children to Bucharest I'd suggest reminding them not to touch things in the street. I was only there for a few days and saw three examples of exposed mains electricity including three-phase in open cabinets accessible from the pavement (sidewalk). One of them was possibly no longer in use but the rest looked potentially lethal.
• elizabethaT4841EZ (10/5): Beautiful boutique hotel - I enjoyed my 2 nights in this beautiful old house turned into a unique hotel; the entrance, reception area and bar are imposing and furnished with antiques and interesting objects. Room was spacious, with extremely comfortable bed and modern bathroom, decorated in antique style. The location was good, less than 10 minutes from the old centre. What really made the stay memorable though, was the staff team, in particular Iwana who was so helpful, friendly and funny. A real asset to the hotel. Also the barman was very friendly. Delicious, varied Romanian breakfast was served downstairs by Doina. Hope to return sometime.
• Arsenikos (2/5): Avoid it!!! - I booked this hotel because it was the nearest hotel to the city center,with free parking.The building and the decoration of the hotel is nice,and they are the only positive. I booked a double room of 20m2,for single use.Arriving there late in the night,they gave me a underground room,with a small window at the top of the wall and when I denied to stay there,they gave me a very small room,that there was no space to open my suitcase. The bed sheets were torn and one morning I found a cockroach in the bathroom. There is no elevator. The breakfast is well decorated ,but poor. The neighborhood is near the city center,but on don’t feel safe walking there the night (very dark). The three last nights of staying there,we used the room for two persons.The difference in price for all the levels of the rooms,between single and double use,including breakfast (as it is written in booking.come) for three nights was 15€.They demanded and I paid80€(390lei).REAL THEFT!!!!!
• Nataliya (10/5): - Absolutely gorgeous
• clickyv (10/5): Beautiful Hotel - We stayed here for 4 nights and were given room number 12. This is located on the 1st floor at the front of the hotel, and has a balcony. The room was spacious, clean, decorated in the style to suit the age of the hotel, but with a modern bathroom. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Especially the lady who serves the breakfast, she is always running round getting everyone what they need, and will cook an amazing omlette to order. Nothing is too much trouble for her, she also arranges a packed lunch if you can not make breakfast due to an early day trip. There is a great choice of continental breakfast items, also fried and scrambled eggs. The one thing that was disappointing was the choice of teas. They only had fruit or mint. This wasn't a major problem for me as I brought my own tea bags from home. The hotel reception is beautifully decorated, as is the bar area, all fitting of the age of the hotel. The hotel smelt very clean, no smell of cigarette smoke at all (as mentioned in a previous review). The hotel is situated about a 15 minute walk from the bar/restaurant area lipscani. Overall I would recommend staying at this hotel!!
• Explorer739071 (4/5): Advertised as “non smoking”, lots of smoking odor. - Gorgeous house, despite being 100 years old the building is well-maintained, bathrooms renovated tastefully and with high end materials. Great location near the city’s center, welcoming staff, wrought iron gate opened by doorbell and reception activated. Queen Maria used this building for her and her entourage, as I understand it. The biggest problem is the smoking inside the building despite their advertisement as “non-smoking”. Either they don’t enforce it or someone in their staff constantly smokes inside. The stench goes up into the rooms. I like it very cold for sleeping so I had the window open despite the colder weather in February. But it still doesn’t do it. The often noise of ambulances woke me up constantly. It is very bothersome to me, more so since I am here for a family medical emergency and will be in this room for 2 weeks. I paid close to $2,000. It’s unacceptable to have this happening. Their policy is that this money is non-refundable. The receptionist explained yesterday (Monday) that it’s “very hard” to enforce the non-smoking rule because some guests still smoke in the room. But today, Tuesday he changed his tune and tried to explain to me that I must be imagining it and it “could” be the incense they are burning in the main hall I am smelling. To his logic, I wonder, why burn incense used for covering cigarette smoke if nobody’s smoking?! I explained the smell of the incense is different and clearly it’s trying to cover the stench of cigarette smoke, which is very unpleasant and quite intense. Of course, he being there in the front hall immersed in the stench means he can’t smell it anymore, even though he doesn’t smoke himself (good to know it’s not him!). Not returning here!

• Neil (10/5): - Lovely hotel, easy walk to the Old Town. Had a nice room, Number 10. Breakfast was very nice, Donia the waitress was lovely! A large grand Victorian type mansion house, very impressive. I took a little portable DVD player with me as most TV Channels were in Romanian but if you have access on phone etc then not needed. An easy city centre to walk around, beautiful architecture!
• Verified traveler (10/5): Great time in Bucharest palace - Amazing stay made great by Doina - one of the staff. She is in charge of the breakfast area and she's a really good person. The place itself is magical, looks like a palace

• Rubria (10/5): Weekend Getaway - Amazing restored hotel with all the amenities walking distance to old town.
• Susan (4/5): Disappointing. - It is a beautiful building. The staff are not professional enough. The breakfast was just average. When we were about to leave the lady at the countor told they couln't find the TV remote control. It might have got lost when the cleaners removed the bedsheet. If you can afford £288 for three nights I don't think you will think of nicking an old remote.
