Avrei preferito la colazione più fornita di dolci e magari fatti in casa e la presenza di personale che parlasse italiano.

Wonderful stay, great location. Beautiful and comfortable suite. Complimentary prosecco was lovely.
Pros:

The hotel was absolutely perfect. I had a beautiful suite on the 6th floor, which was just stunning. The staff were second to none and I would return to the hotel in a heartbeat. The hotel is well situated, just a short distance from Old Town. There was so much to do and see in the locality. Breakfast was nice. The staff were friendly and wonderful. I can't wait to return.

Cons:

I can't fault the hotel at all.

Nostalgische Unterkunft - perfekt für Bukarest
Pros:

Das Hotel hat eine liebenswerte und altmodische Einrichtung inklusive Retro-Lift. Einfacher Check-In und Check-Out. Ansprechendes Zimmer mit einem bequemen Bett und grossem Bad. Safe war einfach zu bedienen. Das Zimmer lag Richtung Innenhof und Umgebung war demnach leise. Klimaanlage hat super funktioniert. Frühstück war lecker - vor allem die Spiegeleier.

Cons:

Beschädigter lockerer Wasserhahn im Bad. Nur zwei deutsche Fernsehsender verfügbar (RTL, Super RTL).

MUY BUEN ALOJAMIENTO
Pros:

La ubicación es perfecta, el personal en todo momento se mostró muy amable y dispuesto a ayudar. El desayuno estaba muy bueno y el café, a pesar de ser de cafetera, estaba buenísimo. Uno de los días no pudimos desayunar en el hotel puesto que salíamos muy temprano a hacer una excursión y nos prepararon un picnic que superó con creces nuestras expectativas (sandwich de jamón y queso, 1 pieza de fruta, 2 yogures, 1 croissant y 1 botella de agua) y nos lo tuvieron preparado para las 6 de la mañana que era la hora que teníamos que salir del hotel.

Cons:

El teléfono de nuestra ducha estaba roto y salía agua por todos sitios, la primera noche lo comentamos y en las 2 noches no pasó nadie a repararlo. No fue un drama pero era incómodo que el agua fuera para todos los sitios.
