    The spa lady was not trying to solve my request. In client service business, before you say “ no”, you should go above and beyond to find a solution. When I explained that, she rolled her eyes. The solution was simple…

    Excelent renovation, great taste in every detail, superbe rooms without over-charging on decoration . Simply perfect. Great staff ( minus the spa lady who was unfriendly) , great atmosphere, finally a hotel that we can call “home” when we visit Bucarest

    One of the best location in Bucharest... The staff at the reception was excellent . They help me with the early checking and late checkout without charging me extra fee. The Athene Cafe and The English Bar both were so great do sit and have drinks... Excellent stay...

    Program the room keys to unlock the lockers for those who go to the gym very early to be able to use that toilet

    Everything is really great, perhaps it has been recently renovated. Service was also great, and so was the gym. Excellent location.

    There was some major upgrading being undertaken which restricted facilities quite a bit. It might have been a positive gesture to have shaved the room prices to compensate.

    The check in in the reception was very very slow, the concierge department was impolite when I asked them to print 2 pages. It took ages to receive an email and they printed my doc on dirty paper.

    The room and the room service were great including the room service menu.

    The staff in the dining room had only a basic understanding of English. The doormen were far more interested in taking to each other than helping me get my luggage out of the taxi and into the hotel. Only one member of staff to check out a lengthy queue meant a slow departure.

    Location is great, the rooms are spacious and well appointed. Very comfortable and reasonably priced

    Best hotel I have ever stayed in. The staff are so friendly and helpful. The room was amazing. I typically have to sleep with noise cancelling headphones when I am travelling, but did not need to here. Couldn’t hear a thing from outside the room and slept like a baby! Breakfast delivered to the room was also great. Thank you!
