Hello Hotels Gara de Nord

Situated so close to the Bukarest Nord (Central) station this is the perfect start for exploring the city. A warm and friendly welcome by the staff at the reception made the best start of our, sadly too short, stay at Hello Boekarest. The 2 rooms we booked and offered by the reception were very clean, quiet and well equiped. Good connections by public transport made traveling aroud very easy. After check-out we could leave the bagage in the luggage room untill the depart of our train later on the day, great service. Thanks very much for your assist to us

Nothing

Good connection to public transport, they respected my wish of a calm room, check in can be done very late and the room offers everything what you need for a city trip. Thanks to Cristian and another colleague I could also leave my luggage while I was exploring the north-western part of Romania, everything worked very well!

The biggest issue would be in case you travel with friends or also as a couple as the door to the shower and the toilet is actually not a "full" door. You can close it but you cannot lock it and it only covers 80% of a "full" door. I honestly don't understand why it was built like that. However, if you're alone, it will be fine.

Cristi at the reception - outstanding customer service. I had a room on the 5th floor-it was quiet although the hotel location is central. The buffet breakfast was better than what I expected from reviews. 3 types of eggs, 3 types of coffee (2 coffee machines), veggies, cold-cuts, 4 types of cheese, yogurts, fruit, milk, juice, croissants etc. Good location to take the train to the airport or other places in the city. A/c very good and room chills fast.

These are not really complaints! Just observations to clarify expectations. The hotel does everything well for its price. The hotel area is a bit shady at night like many main train stations but nothing major. Romania is very safe just watch for petty crime and have common sense. I walked at 2 AM to the train station no problems. The shower door - water drops on the floor? Tip: just open the doors inside the shower, it's not rocket science ! :) The room is rather basic, but clean. This is not a "romantic" hotel. It is a practical, clean, centrally located hotel with a great balance price - features, and it fits this purpose well.

great location, amazing staff, room was weirdly planned but clean and spacious enough, aircon was well planned and working, window was openable and had thick curtains, WiFi was really good, elevators were planned to prevent non-guests from going in, nicely planned light switches

no sockets and nightstands next to the bed, door to the room were heavy but not soundproof, one of the elevators was squicking when in use and it was clearly hearable in the room, bed was tricky, theoretically nice not too soft but morning verified

Good price. It corresponds to what you get. A metro station is literally at arm's leg. 24-hour reception. Friendly employees.

The wi-fi signal and the soap in the shower (no matter how much I used I didn't feel clean after). Also, if I were with a romantic partner I didnt feel comfortable with, I would not choose this room since the bathroom door has a big gap on top so in essence is not really separated from the rest of the room. I, personally, had no problem with it since I knew what I was signing up for!

Clean, convenient area near metro, room as expected nice with limited facilities (wardrobe etc), very good breakfast. Recommended for short low budget staying.

The quality of towels ( changed immediately though!) quality of toilet paper and the lack of shampoo or conditioner or shower gel. There was some kind of transparent gel in the shower but with unknown use. As for the toilet you have to be really comfortable with the person you share the room. But this is your responsibility because it is already known from the comments and the pictures.

In general, I was very satisfied with the stay. Staff were always friendly and helpful. Rooms were very clean. It was well planned to meet all your needs. I think the location of the hotel is very good. It is very easy to reach the hotel from the airport. With the metro located right next to the hotel, you can quickly reach every part of the city. I would definitely recommend it for the visit of Bucharest.

I think the only thing missing is that there is no mini refrigerator in the room. Its absence can be considered normal due to cost. But, perhaps, it can be offered as an option. The lack of a mini refrigerator -in my opinion- is important, especially for long stays.

The location is great, 5 minutes to Gara de Nord train station. The rooms are pretty big and they have also air conditioning. For a night stay they are great especially if you get a room at a higher floor and have a nice view of the city. Although they do not have a classic bathroom, everything is fine. I booked a superior room which was better than a standard one because you are not so close to the bath plumbing that sometimes can be a little smely.

The cleanliness of the toilet could be improved, but overall it was fine.

Clean, value for money room. For a short stay, a very good budget friendly choice. The toilet and the shower are in two different cabins, but it's very room-saving and efficient if you're not toilet shy with your spouse. The room had HD TV and the other guests were very respectful. We didn't have any problems with noise etc.

Breakfast was poor, and even though the breakfast room was at the Continental Hotel next door (the more expensive hotel) the variety, the quality, the quantity and the breakfast room itself were disappointing. Also, the view was totally unpleasant, but oh well.

Clean, comfortable, basic hotel with lovely staff. I got excellent instructions about how to get into town on the metro and they filled my flask with hot water for free :-)

The location is near the main station. That's a positive and a negative because it felt a bit seedy at night. That said, it didn't feel dangerous but just not too pleasant. However, the metro stop is right outside so that avoids too much walking in the dodgy station area. This isn't a complaint about the hotel (I chose to be near the station) but more nervous solo travellers should be aware.
