Very nice, smallish hotel aimed mainly at business travellers and priced towards the top end of the scale. Both standard doubles and more-expensive executive rooms feature fresh bold colours and smart minimalist styling. The executive rooms are larger and situated off busy B-dul Regina Elisabeta. The central location is a plus. Rates are cut for weekend stays.
