Continental Forum Bucuresti Palatul Parlamentului
The room was clean and well looked after with a great view of the cathedral. The staff were friendly and helpful and the food and service were great. Only downsides: The road outside was quite busy and noisy in the mornings. It was quite warm in the rooms and they had turned off the air conditioning ...
