I loved my stay at the JW Bucharest - a truly great hotel! Here are my impressions and photos:
Pros:
- Upgraded to a Senator Suite before arrival, which was a nice suite with lots of furniture
- Bed was fantastic - medium-plush just-right mattress, plush pillows, covers of decent plushness - slept very well
- AC was very effective and would go down to 16 - even I had to turn up the heat once
- Staff was exceedingly friendly
- Welcome gift of delicious desserts
- Lounge was great - nice afternoon desserts, evening service had some delicious bread which was great when dipped in the blue cheese salad dressing (lol)
- Offered either restaurant breakfast or lounge breakfast - restaurant breakfast was delicious with a great omelet, very tasty and buttery pancakes, amazing cappuccinos - service from Namik was delightful and he even brought over a fruit plate to welcome me to Romania
- Had to ask, but was able to get 3 PM late checkout as I requested
- ATM in lobby mall did not charge me any fees
Neutral:
- While shower pressure was strong enough, the amount of water felt a bit spaced out due to hole placement
Cons:
- Location is a bit far for walking (though, I did walk 50 minutes to Centrale Pizza and 50 minutes back at night)
I would definitely come back.
