“A basic room in Bucharest”

We arrived at Hotel Tranzzit early afternoon and with our zero knowledge of Romanian managed the check in process with no problems. The room was spacious and clean with a sofa, beds, wardrobe tv and aircon. The window was broken and wouldn’t close but wasn’t an issue in the 39° heat… We booked B&… more

We arrived at Hotel Tranzzit early afternoon and with our zero knowledge of Romanian managed the check in process with no problems. The room was spacious and clean with a sofa, beds, wardrobe tv and aircon. The window was broken and wouldn’t close but wasn’t an issue in the 39° heat… We booked B&B but when we asked about breakfast we were told to ‘go the market’. This was a bit annoying as there are no coffee making facilities on site either. The area is fine, a little run down but that would describe most of the city! There is a wonderful park close by which is great for visiting anytime of the day. Lots of quality takeaways close by and a couple of supermarkets. There is parking on the street outside for anyone hiring a car (for a small fee online), there are buses locally and the station is only a 10 min walk away. We just used the room as a base for our holiday, and left part-way through our stay to go visit Braşov and Sibiu for a few days returning for a night before flying home. If you’re looking for a basic room, you’ll have no problems here.

“A 10 day stay at this hotel”

Okay, we were here for 10 days in July. I will start with the positives and then other areas that could be improved.

Okay, we were here for 10 days in July. I will start with the positives and then other areas that could be improved. The room that we stayed in was big and airy, good air-conditioning, clean, I can see that the tranzzit hotel are making improvements i.e. new bathrooms, clean and modern. Night staff was friendly quite close to old town, €3 in an Uber, which I thought was great value.. sidenote, Ubers are cheap and reliable in Bucharest. Some of the day staff tried to be friendly but lack of English made it hard to communicate. Now onto the not so positive where the hotel is situated. There is a lack of restaurants and local amenities. The rooms : Simple thing, like a waste paper bin in your room. There was none. Also, we did not have a wardrobe in our room where we could hang or clothes are clothes had to stay mostly in our suitcases. or hung over a chair and we had a bracelet and a brand-new top go missing from our room. I did report it but nothing was done.. there is no coffee making facilities in your room or or a place in the hotel where you could get a coffee we had to take an Uber into old town. One particular member of the reception staff treated the hotel home from home. She was never behind the reception. She was always in the lounge area smoking drinking coffee and she had a dog that would bark at you. You always felt that if you had to ask her a question that you were interrupting her conversation with her male friend or interrupting her on her mobile, very unprofessional. And the stink of smoke through the hotel wasn’t nice either. This is an honest and fair view of the tranzzit hotel.

“Okay hotel for the price but strange”

When I arrived at Hotel Tranzzit there was absolutely nobody manning the desk. Granted, it was around 11pm, but the website lists no set check-in time limit (just that it begins at 2pm). I waited around 45 mins for someone to show up, and the person who did arrive was not very friendly or communica… more

When I arrived at Hotel Tranzzit there was absolutely nobody manning the desk. Granted, it was around 11pm, but the website lists no set check-in time limit (just that it begins at 2pm). I waited around 45 mins for someone to show up, and the person who did arrive was not very friendly or communicative. After some back and forth I was told that they had no record of my booking — however I had just received a phone call from them the day before (no message left) so they definitely had my information. The night receptionist showed me the personal information of everyone else staying there to ask if I was staying with those guests, which seemed like a breach of privacy. He asked if I had paid yet, and I said no, but he gave me the keys and let me into the room without paying. Very strange check-in experience. Overall, the room was not bad. Unfortunately I was in the room directly beside reception and you can hear absolutely everything, so I was awoken every day by the phone ringing or people chatting. The daytime receptionists were very friendly although did not speak English, and I made sure to pay for my stay in the morning. My room had one large bed, a closet, a bathroom, a window to an outdoor seating area, and a television — although I never tried the TV as you could hear everything from the lobby and vice versa. No hot water on the first day but the second day was fine. Soap and shower gel is included in the bathroom. No fridge or kettle in the room but there is a kitchen. Breakfast is not included but one coffee per day is allowed if you ask the reception to prepare it. Wi-fi is uncharacteristically spotty for Romania and would connect and disconnect every minute or so. The great thing about this place is not only price but location. You are only around 8 mins from Gara de Nord and there is a laundromat on the way as well. Lots of Mega Image grocery stores nearby and even a nice park. Metro, etc. are all located conveniently. It's very easy to walk to the Old City and the area with the Atheneum. Overall, I didn't hate my stay here. It was a bit awkward and strange but the daytime receptionists were very sweet and feigned being impressed with my almost-non-existent Romanian, hahaha. I would stay here again for one or two nights if I was travelling by train.
