This
is
most
definitely
not
a
5-star
hotel
-
rather
3
stars.
I
have
been
to
the
hotel
two
times
before,
five
and
ten
years
ago
and
now
for
a
third
time
(May
2022)
and
the
quality
of
their
services
has
declined
strongly.
The
interior
and
the
furniture
seem
in
many
places
worn
down,
outdated
and
have
mostly
lost
their
old
splendor.
Staff
were
generally
polite
but
they
seemed
stressed,
disinterested
and
unmotivated.
You
could
not
help
thinking
there
was
a
bad
mood
within
the
staff
or
problems
with
work
conditions.
Check
in
took
about
ten
minutes
although
there
only
was
one
group
of
three
in
front
of
me
-
there
was
only
one
clerk
and
the
electronic
system
seemed
to
be
slow.
At
check-out,
we
had
to
queue
for
25
minutes
although
he
had
to
rush
to
a
meeting
-
they
offered
no
alternative
to
checking
out
via
the
clerk
and
check-out
took
ridiculous
5-6
minutes
pro
person,
and
again,
there
were
only
two
clerks
in
spite
of
a
very
long
queue.
I
had
asked
to
pay
the
bill
the
day
before
because
i
had
anticipated
the
problem
but
they
refused
on
the
grounds
that
i
might
consume
something
from
the
minibar
on
that
evening
and
not
pay
it
if
i
payed
before
checkout
(??!!).
They
did
not
ask
us
how
the
stay
was
at
checkout,
the
whole
procedure
made
a
rather
uncommunicative,
unfriendly
impression.
Reception
refused
to
call
for
a
taxi
for
us
saying
their
is
a
machine
for
that
in
the
lobby...
We
had
a
conference
booked
in
the
hotel
with
a
buffett
booked
after
the
event
-
food
did
not
arrive
after
the
event,
apparently
because
of
a
health
and
safety
control
by
the
authorities.
Kitchen
had
closed
afterwards
and
there
was
no
breakfast
the
next
day
(no
comment).
Instead
of
breakfast
we
received
a
ridiculous
package
of
two
white
toast
sandwiches
with
some
poor
quality
sausage
and
gouda
cheese.
No
dietary
options
were
offered
whatsoever
and
even
this
package
did
not
arrive
to
every
member
of
our
group.
Will
not
be
visiting
a
fourth
time,
which
is
actually
a
pity
because
this
one
of
Bucharests
historic
hotels
wich
used
to
have
a
"Grand
Hotel"
flair,
has
a
great
location,
a
great
view,
etc.
Unfortunately,
the
old
flair
had
been
lost.
