A lovely, spacious apartment in the woods of Herastrau Lake and King Michael Park. Great View.
Pros:

I stayed in the apartment, and it was a really enjoyable experience. It's spacious with a distinct 70s/80s style that takes you back in time a bit. The unit had a huge living room, a good bathroom with a large tub, and a big bedroom. The real highlight, though, is the long balcony overlooking Herăstrău Lake — a wonderful spot to sit in the evening and watch the birds, trees, and park-goers along the water. The hotel is part of the Herăstrău complex, which includes a restaurant, a banquet area, and other facilities, adding a nice extra dimension to the stay — guests even get a discount at the restaurant. The restaurant itself sits right over the lake and serves great local cuisine with a modern twist. Staff were extremely helpful, even carrying my luggage up to the apartment. But perhaps the nicest thing of all is that despite being in Bucharest, you feel tucked away in the woods.

Cons:

Herăstrău Lake was drained while I was there, as there's a lot of waterworks going on across Romania right now (Vidraru Lake was drained too, for example). I learned that the lake and park are being renovated and modernized. As I walked around and saw many old trees marked with X's, I felt lucky to have made it just in time to see the old Herăstrău character before the renovation is complete. I do hope the renovations manage to preserve some of that older, stuck-in-time charm.

Warm and comfortable, but needs modernization asap
Pros:

The staff were so nice, friendly and helpful.
The room was big, air-conditioned and comfortable. The location in the park is nice with small child. Many playgrounds around. Room service is good and price is also good.

Cons:

The facilities and maintainence of the hotel are lacking. It appears aged and not modernized. It is a good Romanian cultural experience, but it is only good, if facilities are continuously modernized. This is right now not the case for Herastrau unfortunately.

In the Booking.com description, it says there is an indoor and outdoor play area for kids. There is not. It also says there is a pingpong table and bike rentals. There is not. This is misleading unfortunately. Currently the lake is drained, which it doesn't state either. We were quite disappointed by this.

Pros:

Abbiamo soggiornato nella camera con vista lago, che è veramente molto grande, ha una zona living e una zona notte, e due climatizzatori. Zona veramente molto bella verde e tranquilla soprattutto, ben lontana dal caos centro !

Cons:

l'unico punto a sfavore è che la fermata metro piu vicina è a tipo 20 minuti a piedi, però se si vuole allontanare dal centro ed avere un po di quiete ne vale la pena (oppure chiamate un taxi)

Pros:

The breakfast was amazing, the chef (George) would even cook stuff on request and he was really friendly. All the staff said hi and was quite helpful. The rooms were clean and cleaned every day. There was also A/C in our room and I liked the toilets.

Cons:

The wifi connection was lacking in our room but maybe that was a room specific problem. At the current moment the Herastrau lake is drained making the location a little laking, however the park is still quite beautiful.

Pros:

Отель расположен в парке, Дружелюбный персонал, неплохой завтрак.

Cons:

Было очень шумно, дискотека в 50 метрах от отеля работала до 4.00, отдохнуть перед длительной поездкой не получилось. В номере отсутствовал чайник, все очень старое. Не рекомендую останавливаться там, если Вы хотите выспаться и набраться сил

Eine Oase in der Großstadt! Bleiben Sie länger als ich!
Pros:

Mitten in der Großstadt Bukarest gibt es diese angenehme Oase am gleichnamigen Binnensee. Gut geführtes Haus mit gutem Frühstück und gemütlichem Zimmer. Sehr ansprechende Restaurants im Haus und an der Seepromenade.
