Novotel Bucharest City Centre
"The hotel was generally nice and clean but like most hotels, the foyer gave a more stylish impression than the actual rooms. The decor in the rooms was dated and basic. There was AC but it was very subtle and even at the lowest temp and highest fan, it barely touched the temperature in the room. ..."
