Hotel Aro Palace

It's an old hotel, the 5 five stars categorization is a bit of a stretch if you compare with other major hotels. But, is well maintained with a lot of character, the staff and overall service is great and you're staying right in the middle of Brasov. Breakfast is really good in my opinion, lots of variety, with many Romanian specific options that reminded me of my mother's cooking (congrats for that). The room was clean, large bathroom, great mattress and pillows, good wifi signal, tv a little on the small side, but no complains with the room. And, of course, the pool, maybe not quite at the level of the one from Ana Sport hotel in Poiana Brasov, but definitely one of the best in Brasov. The 8th floor restaurant, yes, is expensive, however, the service and quality of food is next level, I wouldn't miss the experience if you're staying at Aro Palace.

Big open and spacious rooms, clean, very good breakfast ( one of the best there is ), friendly staff all round, amazing spa and one the best location you can find.

Well this looks like a 60s office block when you first arrive, huge foyer and must be a good conference venue. Just behind the hotel is the old town which is stunning, so location wise it is excellent Roof top restaurant was excellent, great food and a cocktail on the terrace

Location was excellent, at the start of the old town. Easy to find by car and secure parking right outside. The pool was the biggest of any hotel i have ever stayed at. Also the pool and spa area was spotless, no sign of any mould or neglect. We had a beautiful view overlooking the old town . Big choice at breakfast but kept warm on hotplates which i hate.

Excellent location in the city centre, beautiful views of the whole town from the balcony. Superb lobby and generous spaces everywhere. Despite the central location the noise level is not disturbing at all. The staff were very friendly and helpful, and the breakfast excellent, a lot of choices and great quality - I think it is these two elements that could warrant the five stars, the rest of the hotel is rather on a 4-star level.
