Grand Hotel Bucharest
Breakfast had plenty of choice. Room was clean and comfortable. Lobby area was modern and welcoming. Sky bar restaurant food was good but small portions. Service started well but was slow after main course. Pool was cold, steam room not working, sauna was lovely. Gym well equipped.
