Hotel Herastrau

The location.. An oasis of tranquilitty in the middle of Bucharest. The place is ideal for a family with a little baby..The restaurant at the location was excellent .. Very good food. Also the staff was very helpful

The Rooms are a bit old fashioned

Hotel amplasat in parc Herastrau. Am primit o camera la era 1 fara balcon linistita intr-o zi de Vineri. Datorita faptului CA sunt lucrari la parc Herastrau, hotelul numai poate otganiza petreceri oe lac si Este liniste. Anii trecuti in serile de Vineri si Sambata erau mari petreceri si galagie pe Lacul Herastrau. Mancarea la restaurant foarte buna dar foarte scumpa. O masa de pranz pentru mama si copil ajungand usor la peste 200 de Ron.

Mobiler vechi. Mic dejun ok dar slabut calitativ. Nu Este un mic dejun de 4 stele. Mai de 2 stele. Hotelul scump CA si cazare datorita pozitiei in parc.

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.

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.

There is a restaurant, part of the hotel at the opposite side of our room, with very loud music till 5 AM. Also we had a problem with hornets. We killed 3 in our room.
