Scânteia Hotels from S$51

"Nice "

"I thought 3☆ are going to be decent but the hotel is in a terrible condition, the wallpaper is peeling off, taps are rusty, very old dirtish furniture, odd smell, the carpet looked also dirty, you feel your skin itchy once you step in the room. The staff was nice though, and the bedsheets clean. Such a same, this hotel has great location. "

"Amazing location, great breakfast, clean A bit outdated"

"Made a confirmed booking on Hotels.com. Received a call from the manager on the day to confirm booking. When i arrived at 8pm, the manager had left and was very impolitely told that no rooms were available by the reception. I stated i had booking, and was told "we are full, leave the building". Shpwed proof of booking and payment, but was told "its not my problem". After a heated argument (15 minutes) the hotel reception called the manager, who stated to reception that i was indeed one of the "full hotel" people, and to give me a room. My advice.... check in during the day when the manager is on site!!!"

"We had an extended weekend stay with my wife here to explore Iasi. As usual this is a beautiful hotel and a very well-oiled machine in terms of staff kindness, responsiveness and all things working as they should. The checkin was easy and we got a room higher up, for a truly stunning view over Iasi and the environs. The room was generous, with TV, desk, lounge chairs and table, fast wifi, large bed, hair dryer, and many small touches such as toiletries etc. Everything functioned well and right. The Hotels.com checkin gift was also honored. We took advantage of a very good breakfast (strong on warm options including meat and veg omelettes, machine-pancakes) salads and spreads, and of the Spa, which has a heated pool, gym and other spa services. The entire experience was wonderful and I have no complaints. One can see the virtuous circle of a fully staffed, usually fully booked, hotel, knowing exactly how things are done well. Also don’t miss their 13th floor restaurant. The view is fantastic, although you are very likely to pop into a wedding or conference dinner, so for more intimate settings look around. Downstairs there is also a coffee & pastry shop for a quick day-snack. "

"Good"

"Very convenient location, if you pla3to go to the bus station or the train station, big room, decent breakfast, but no atmosphere "
