“Best business hotel in Moldova”

Probably the best hotel in Moldova! It is a new facility with nice rooms and friendly staff. I've being in Moldova a few times but it is the first time when I found a western style hotel to stay in. The price is comparable to other local hotels but the quality is much much better.

“Not Impressed”

The statement of hotel emplyees showed a clear ignorance to the situation and to my believe a cheating of customers.

“Building site”

The hotel is in a side street with broken pavements and little street lighting at night (torch is advisable). At first sight I thought it was closed: completely covered in scaffolding and green netting. It was open. I asked about the building works which had not been mentioned in advance and was told they were quiet. This was not true. Hammering and drilling started at 7.30 and continued till 8 pm or later. A roof was being put on. It was too noisy to relax inside the hotel. Because of the netting, the room was very dark and because of the scaffolding it was not safe to open the windows, making it very stuffy. Rubbish was left on the scaffolding planks outside the window. The very large room itself was attractive with a high ceiling and big armchairs. The bathroom was excellent but directly overseen by a building site next door (building a block of flats). The TV had 55 channels, none in English. There were few other guests. However, breakfast was good and staff helpful. The hotel was expensive for Chisinau and this experience was very disappointing: I deliberately went upmarket and could have done better at one of the cheap ex-communist concrete block hotels. However, it will be a good place to stay when the work in the hotel, and next door, are completed.
