Staying here feels like a journey back to the communist era, as the property hasn't been renovated yet. However, it offers decent comfort and good value for the price. The highlight is the access to the swimming pool and sauna area. Breakfast is acceptable but unremarkable. Additionally, the availability of parking is a significant advantage in Cluj-Napoca.

Reaching the hotel at night can be quite an adventure, as the stairs from Somes are poorly lit and in disrepair. The breakfast could also use an update and improvement to better meet guest expectations.

The young lady at reception was lovely. Everything went smoothly. Large lobby with impressive chandeliers, decades old. The location high on the hill, surrounded by trees, away from the city traffic. We were lucky to find several empty parking spots, so that went smoothly. Good size room, bright, with a balcony and a spectacular view of the city, both during the day and especially at night. Traditional furniture, nostalgic, but elegant. We had bathrobes in the bathroom, which came in handy for the pool. We brought our own swim caps, as we were told in advance they were compulsory. We enjoyed the pool in the evening and again in the morning. The water was pleasant, and luckily when we went it was quiet and comfortable to use. As the semi-olympic pool is part of World Class Club, it can get busy with swimming and aqua classes, but the guy at the club reception was helpful in telling us when it would be more quiet to swim, once the classes ended. Breakfast was ok-scrambled and sunny side up eggs, different cheeses, cold cuts, sausages, mixed salad, yogurt, cereals, jams, a few traditional dishes such as zacusca and smoked aubergine salad, apple strudel and chocolate muffins, coffee… and my favorite- fresh watermelon, since it is the season in Romania.

Hard pillows. Duvet too small for two people. AC needs to be checked as pretty inefficient. We opened the balcony door, and that was fine, as the night was cool.

This is a Ceausescu-era architectural gem - so hideous that it has it's own charm: the unnecessarily large lobby, the small bedrooms made even smaller by chunky wooden furniture and the mysterious pair of armchairs to be found by the lift on every floor. What was their purpose in Communist-era hotels? This concrete monolith of a hotel is located on top of a park-like hill only a short (but steep) walk from the city centre. making a very pleasant location to stay in the city.

There is a large car park, but parking seems to be unregulated with the result that non-hotel residents use it and parking places for hotel guests are sometimes difficult to find.

A reasonable place at a reasonable price. Not extravagant, but useful. Has an older feeling, with remnants from the communist era, which gives it a a certain aura. Not bristling with modern gimicks, and that's a positive. Fantastic view over the city, all around. Quiet and peaceful. Unlike many hotels in the city centre, Belvedere has it's own, large parking lot. Extremly important when travelling by car. Can't say more about other amenities because I hadn't used them.

Had a small issue with a socket. Didn't matter much, I used another and informed the front desk for them to solve it.

Super Pool (25qm) and Sauna facilities (one hammam and one dry sauna), i didn't use the fitnesscenter, but even locals go there and like it. The breakfast was okay, there was everything you need, it had a slight Romanian tendency since you had two types of Zacusca, Romanian white bread and apple pie (if you came early enough). The view is gorgeous, all over it's a place where locals go to meet up for a nice view and to have a smooth evening. I never went to the restaurant, but nearby there was Electric Gardens, an open air place with several food trucks with really delicious food! Architecture quite old, but comfortable bed and clean rooms.

There were receptionists at a range of almost ignorant to very friendly. Overall they were not extremely friendly or caring, but still okay.

The hotel is located on a hill, and almost every room offers a nice panorama of the city. An uber ride to the historic center is about 4 euros. The room was cozy and warm. The hotel has a pool (which the guests can use for free) and a parking. The personnel was polite and the breakfast was nice enough.

One aspect that may seem unappealing to others is that the aesthetic is generally outdated. For example, the furniture in the rooms is in a 70 style, there are a lot of wood panels etc. For us, it was not a problem, because we appreciate the historical value of this design.

The gym and swimming pool next door is great. Maybe it would be a good advice to tell guests to bring swimming cap with them. The view from the rooms is great. The restaurant is good. Very useful to have parking. The breakfast was good and good value (for Romenia). Dinner was good and very useful to be able to eat dinner at the hotel after a long day out without needing to go down the hill to eat in the city center.

It is an old building which had good history but now needs renovation. The mattress wasn't very comfortable. Restaurant shuts at 20.00.

The hotel might look a bit old on the outside but it is really high standard on the inside. We were surprised it was only 3 stars and not 4. The room was really comfortable and clean.

The spa is located just next to the swimming pool so it is quite noisy, especially when there are swimming classes.

We liked the view from the hotel to Cluj Napoca. Big parking space. The New Year’s brunch was delicious.

The bed was noisy in every movement in it. We got up at night when the one of use turn around. The mattress was comfortable. Unfortunately the construction of the bed was not okay. On the other hand somebody started the fire alarm at night because he/she used firework on the balcony during New Year’s Eve.

Breakfast, varied choice, excellent all round. The room was large and the bed comfortable. The Hotel is located in a quiet and green area in what has become a noisy and polluted city.

The bar/ restaurant was closed on the evening I stayed there. The helpful receptionist had to struggle to find a bottle opener. In the end, he opened the bottle of ear I had bought in heat-wave conditions with a teaspoon! The hotel building is starting to show its age.
