Few locations in Bucharest are better than this, right on fashionable Calea Victoriei. The entrance is impressive: a replica of the old neo-classical Romanian National Theatre which stood on this exact site until it was bombed and destroyed during the World War II. Effortlessly smart the hotel itself is wonderful: rooms are big, with bathrooms a particularly impressive size. Has a good gym and even boasts an indoor pool, while the new flagship wine bar and restaurant Winestone is well worth a visit.
