Belvedere is a communist-era relic with a few modern-day touches, which makes it attractive to both melancholic and up-to-date travellers. Rooms are in need of some TLC, they look very dated and rough. At the same time, the sheets are clean, beds comfortable. There was a bath tub. The quality of the toiletries is another aspect that could be improved. There was very little in terms of shower gel provided. The shower curtain a bit stained at the bottom. On the plus side - the heater was easy to control and very welcome after a day freezing in the mountains. The balcony could do with a few sitting stools and a coffee table, at least. Breakfast was reliable, run-of-the-mill, nothing special, but does the job very well.
The best part of the hotel is the access to the spa, with a 50m length pool. Alas, the dry sauna was not in use due to a technical fault (a missing fuse, apparently). Why it takes up to a week to fix it beats me. The steam room worked a treat, but extremely crowded. The Gym was also a welcome surprise, good quality materials. On the down side - there was no water fountain in the gym, which is a non-sense, just a gimmick to rip you off a bit more by buying their overpriced water at the counter. Come prepared for this - Romania is famous for charging for water everywhere (restaurants included)
All in all, this is the place to be if you're looking for reliable quality, are not too demanding and enjoy the very good value for money this hotel provides.
