Hotel berhampiran Centrul Comercial Esplanada, Bucharest

Amazing hotel and great quality. Been there to enjoy the capital and I can say that the location is formidable. It’s located in the old town and just a few minutes away from the restaurants and shops. I had a good time enjoying the hotel amenities and the bedroom.

Highly disappointed due the poor efforts from the front desk on everything. It seems the team is just trained to do the basic and avoid going beyond expectations. Problem with the deposit: blame the guest. Request to change a room: ignored without not even checking their system for availability. Call Center: never a clear answer. Facilities are fine, location is fine, but service needs to be highly improved.

This is a 3 star hotel which somehow fluked a 4 star rating. I stayed in two other hotels in Romania rated as 3-star and both were much better quality (and cheaper). Despite picking the most expensive room, there were numerous minor deficiencies. The window was tiny (notice how it’s carefully excluded from the photographs) and looked straight onto a decaying concrete wall, offering quite the most dismal outlook I can recall in many years of visiting hotels. This was not improved by the poor room lighting, nor by the failure of the window to close properly. The bathroom had hopelessly inadequate space to put toiletries. The reading light was supposed to be adjustable but always sprang back to its favourite position. The stairway lights didn’t work properly, making them dangerous to descend. The bed was uncomfortable. The breakfast croissants were stale. The breakfast staff, however, deserve credit. They were friendly and helpful. The location is also good.

When i got there, I was told I was too early (fair enough, check-in is from 2 pm and i got there around 11.30) I had sort of anticipated this, so thought i would just kill some time at the skybar which supposedly has a great view - but much to my surprise, I was told the skybar was closed, only open for breakfast. Must be the biggest attraction of the hotel, and in their wisdom, they close it! So instead, I took a walk heading towards the parliament building which is preety close by. When i returned a while later, room was now ready but oh by the way, the lift doesnt work! So i now had to carry luggage up the fire exit staircase (room was on 4th floor). Very narrow and poorly lit, so if you have trouble walking - good luck. Just hope you dont meet somebody coming down - passing them will be a challenge :-) Reception said lift would be fixed in a day or two!! So i made it to the room and cannot really decide what to think of it. On the one hand, it was spotlessly clean and looked very new and modern but on the other hand: No coffee / tea, There was a minibar with some wine and soft drinks but no beer,No glasses to be found anywhere (so I guess, just drink the wine from the bottle),WiFi works but not very stable - keeps dropping out. At breakfast, the skybar was now open - 2 people in front of me for the coffee machine which was quite slow - turned out they were not guests - but the breakfast room staff!. When they finally had their coffee they went straigth out onto the open terrasse for a cigarette (very small outdoor terrase and the staff now occupied 1/3 of it) and started chatting quite loudly - so terrasse is just as much for the staff - not the guests only. And really - if staff of any kind of establishment wants to have a loud discussion, do so away from the guests!! Breakfast was very poor - quite frankly pathetic! - some dry toast bread, a little bit of cheese and some slices of what looked like ham/salami - nothing warm like e.g. eggs (of course the staff were busy out on the terrasse smoking and having a loud conversation). Definately not worth any money at all - instead head out for one of the many cafes very close by. The lobby has what looks like a bar, but all they sell is coffee. Big surprise to me when late afternoon after a long walk i came back, asked for a cold beer and was told they didnt have any!! You can have some wine from the minibar, but you cant have a beer anywhere. The day of departure i waited a little in the lobby for my taxi to the airport. Need to use a bathroom?? Too bad - just like the lift, out of order. This would be fixed ”in a day or 2” so clearly not a priority for this place. Wifi, although it did work in the room - no luck in the lobby - could not connect at all. The guy in the lobby was nice enough but most of the time you will find him outside, having a smoke. All in all, extremely dissapointed with this place. Wish i had gone back to Hello Hotel instead - breakfast much much better, you can

The staff was very polite and very friendly. The gym was not as expected. It has very little equipment and nearly all cardio machines were out of order.

Hotel is situate in a great central place in the city. We had a suite on 5th floor which consisted of separate bedroom and lounge with sofa (bed if needed) and table and chairs and mini fridge. The bathroom was beautiful with large shower and quite spacious. There were 2 lots of wardrobes and plenty hanging space, shelves for clothes. The suite was immaculate and bedding changed every day. The hotel restaurant on the 6th floor is just beautiful all tastefully decorated in pink. We didn’t have food at night but breakfast was ample cooked food and continental. The hotel overall is immaculate and a very pleasant place to stay so comfortable and we slept well. The reception guys were really helpful and informative for anything we needed to know about the city. Overall we enjoyed our stay

Location is very good , for weekends it is the best , always recommend

This hotel is aesthetically beautiful, the rooms are decorated to a high standard with nothing to fault. Staff were helpful. Our only let down would be location is out of city centre a good 45 minute walk, or rely on Uber and the continental breakfast was a little underwhelming and lacked choice and variety. Coffee not served at breakfast is an extra charge which I’ve never found elsewhere during travels especially when there is no drink making facilities in the room. Beautiful hotel, location more suited for business not a city break and things like breakfast and drink making aren’t great. On a positive note the neighbours dog who visits the front door is lovely and friendly.

Hotel My Continental Gara De Nord provided a solid base for our four days of exploring Bucharest. A very convenient location, regarding the metro and railway station; and within a walkable distance (around 20 min) to the centre. The hotel was clean and safe; our room offered everything we needed and general ambience was pleasant. What deserves a special mention, is the restaurant staff at breakfast times (good-humoured and very professional) as well as breakfast on offer – plentiful, fresh and tasty. Also, a nice vibe there in the evenings with an attentive and lovely gentleman at the bar. Thank you for a positive experience, looking forward to coming back …

Truly great experience. Only thing to point is that the pool is an extra, you need to lay 10€/personne/day... Other than that, really nice !
