Belfort Hotel

Excellent hotel...with a great breakfast. Only problem. The lift starts one floor up from reception, and it’s a struggle with suitcases.Also you have to walk uphill on return from the old town.

Staying in Room 403. This is the 2nd night of a 5 night stay and noticed something seriously weird. There is a motion sensor in room! Unless you move around every 20 minutes to ensure the motion sensor detects movements, ALL power will get cut off. I mean ALL POWER including mini-fridge, TV, and all electric sockets. So good luck charging your phone or other electronic devices overnight. Called evening reception and been told it's actually NORMAL and that's how the rooms are?! Will try General Manager tomorrow to see if we have better luck! Other than that, room is nice and modern, bedding comfortable, staff friendly.

Plus side...staff is really nice and helpful. Theres free parking. Room is big. Bathroom clean. Location good. Value for money good. 10 min walk from old town maybe. I dont like to be right in the center. Belfort is a close as you can be on outside. Downsides..i had stitches in my leg and the Belfort has alot of steps. You have to walk up steps to get to the one lift. The lift is super slow. Waiting for it is frustrating. So you will want to use steps all the time. Also Belfort up a short hill, then steps to reception, then steps to lift, steps to breakfast. Really no big deal unless you have issues walking. I am mentioning it because before my injury I wouldnt have thought twice. Room smelled like years of stale cigarettes even though its non smoking room. Every item of clothing i have needed to be washed when I left to get the smell out. Bed not very comfortable. This is matter of preference. It was a hard mattress.

The gentleman that takes care of the breakfast area does an Outstanding job. The rest of the staff are pleasant and helpful as well. The hotel is well located and would be my first choice for staying in Brasov in the future.

A first class hotel at a reasonable rate.
