Grand Hotel Sofianu

“Warm friendly hotel!”

I had a huge room overlooking the park which was a bit noisy but very comfortable. Good facilities and I slept well. The small pool was great but I couldn’t get the spa tabs to work - but having the pool to myself was excellent!! Friendly staff!!

“Bartender must be a muslim otherwise I can’t understand why the cocktails have no alcohol.”

Hotel is state of the art, is like a Museum offering accommodation. Little outdated but still very comfortable in a decadent style. Facing the city park is also very quiet.

Hotel is state of the art, is like a Museum offering accommodation. Little outdated but still very comfortable in a decadent style. Facing the city park is also very quiet. Restaurant service / waiter was very good and eager to help but food eas much better in the past (2-3 years ago). Bad experience with poor cocktails. Bartender must be controlled by the owner directly. A Hugo and a Cosmopolitan both extremely sweet ( with syrups).… and without alcohol. After this experience you remain with a bitter taste despite the sweetness in the glasses :( I strongly recommend the hotel. Private guarded parking is another bonus and the indoor pool and SPA are very good additions. Accomodation payment in advance, upon arival is little strange but not a big deal. Very large and confy bed 2x2 m in a large room completes the feeling of relaxation after a long trip. We stayed several times here and we intend to come again but for sure will chose another place to eat.

“Decent stay but overpriced”

The location is close to the park, but the back rooms offer a less pleasant view if you don't have a park view. It seems like the prices should vary between the front and back rooms. The rooms are reasonably spacious, but the plastic flooring smells strange. My room only had a shower, not a bathtub… lisää

The location is close to the park, but the back rooms offer a less pleasant view if you don't have a park view. It seems like the prices should vary between the front and back rooms. The rooms are reasonably spacious, but the plastic flooring smells strange. My room only had a shower, not a bathtub, and the exhaust fan was slow, so water pooled at my feet while showering. The pool looks nice, but outside guests aren't allowed, even if you offer to pay. The "gym" is located close to the pool, making it too hot for a proper workout. It's unusual to see employees relaxing and smoking on the terrace alongside guests, as they charge a premium for the stay. Overall, it was a decent experience but not worth the price.

Nice hotel situated next to Zavoi Park, one gorgeous location from Valcea county. Walking distance from city center. Rooms are spacious and nice, with old style furniture. We did not visit the restaurant. Diferent story when speaking about other staying conditions, room temperature was extremly hot, we had very hot temperature in the room, even if outside was 4 degrees. Room termostat was useless, we set it for 22 but for nothing. We had to stop air conditioner so we get colder temperature, of course again us did not have any saying in how the temperature will feel. Bed sheets not nice in touching. First part of the night we could not sleep because was too warm. Pitty for nice location. Not sure if will come back.
