What guests think

At Metropole Apartments - Old City, guests consistently praise the central, walkable location by Old Town and generally quiet setting, along with modern, comfortable interiors that match photos, easy digital access, and responsive communication throughout their stays.

Several reviews note a shabby entrance, dim common areas, and a small, occasionally unreliable elevator that can feel unsafe. Service is typically helpful and proactive, though some guests mention inflexible check-in/out policies, last-minute door codes, and no luggage storage. Interiors often include compact kitchens and washers, while a few guests reported AC noise, brief hot-water limits, or minor Wi-Fi/TV quirks. Expect a comfortable base with strong value inside and dated common areas outside.

It’s a room in an old building. Elevator holds 2people if you don’t manually close the bifold door properly, you will get stuck in between floors in the elevator and it will not move. It’s an Air B&B. The room is very modern and clean but didn’t expect to pay so much in Romania for room in a old dirty building.i felt unsafe going to my room. The only good thing about it is it’s walking distance to old town.

Lovely apartment, modern, clean, has everything you could need and a great view from the balcony. The lift looks dodgy, didn’t use it as it looked like something out of tower of terrors when we arrived in the dark so we walked up 12 flights of stairs, on some floors the sensor lights didn’t come on so we were terrified. Felt completely safe in daylight though!

Great stay and very nice apartment in the heart of old town area. Kitchen is great to have and huge bonus was a washing machine. The bathroom is nicely laid out and bedroom and balcony was great. Apartment is super clean and well maintained for guest's. They relly make it feel like home. The restaurants around the apartment is a huge plus. We would stay again if we are back in Romania.

The premium suite itself was exactly as the pictures. Clean, a washer, everything we needed to have a pleasant stay. Check-in was easy with no contact, but the accommodation is ALWAYS available through whatsapp for questions/concerns. We stayed there as a couple with a 15 month old, and the premium suite offered everything we needed for a reasonable price. The area was good. Three downsides! (last 2 are baby related) 1) The entrance and building were pretty ghetto. Not in an unclean way, more like a run-down way. 2) The elevator is not as big as modern elevators. As we have a full-size stroller, this was a hassle because we had to fold it every time we left/came back. (With a baby, that's pretty often.) 3) No baby beds available, so be prepared for that. All in all, I don't regret our choice. But if you have a full size stroller, this may not be the easiest option.

The property is in the heart of Bucharest. Well equiped, modern, it offers all you need for a good stay. Recommend adding instructions on the wall for operating the stove. The Europian style ( child protection) is not known to 3rd world countries (like America). Good price too.

The apartment itself was not bad. Except for the air conditioner made grinding noises if set below 19 Celsius. But the scary and even dangerous part was the elevator didn’t work and there was very little lighting in the staircase and halls.

The rooms were incredibly nice and I couldn’t ask for more. Is near to restaurants and metro universidade. Don’t be surprised by the entry to the building and the elevator, once you are in the apartment it’s chic and clean. Absolutely recommend this choice

The apartment was perfect. Super functional, clean and stylish. The communication was quick and accurate from Stefan. The only downside I would say is the lift. It is old and cramped and if someone doesn’t close the outer lift door on a level, then you have to walk the stairs. This only happened once in our three night stay though.

This property, at least the premium suite, does not deserve the "9.4 Exceptional"status that is posted on Expedia. The shower grout was covered in black mildew, the view from the terrace was awful, not anything like the photo, the kitchen was a joke- the electric kettle had tape on the cord because it was damaged, the entrance to the building is covered in graffiti. I am totally disappointed and will not use Expedia again.

Downtown Bucharest, close to old town, lots of patios, restaurants. Spotless, modern design. No flexibility for check in-out. Cannot leave luggage if you arrive early of leave late. They give you the code to the appartment last minute. For 2 hours late check out they charge 20 euros. Of course they have virtual assistent. You can here traffic overnight

Fantastiskt läge, nära till metro och bussar. Nära till restaurangdistriktet i city. Bra säng, rent och snyggt. Kod till lögenheten vilket var väldigt praktiskt. Husets dörr mot gatan stod öppen hela vistelsen - dåligt. Ingen belysning i korridoren utanför lägenheten, det kändes inte tryggt. Klent utrustat kök, lagom för frukost men knappast något mer.

We were completely satisfied. The apartment itself is nice, plenty of room in the bedroom, lots of storage space. The kitchen is incredibly tiny and not that well equipped, but it’s adequate for simple cooking. You couldn’t ask for a better location, right next to the old town, with convenient public transportation. A special plus is that it’s located close to the bus stop for the airport bus number 783. That’s a great way to get into town from the airport, it only cost $0.66, and you can pay on the bus with credit card. The entry is shabby and the elevator is ancient, but don’t let that bother you, the apartment is nice.

The actual room itself is okay for a couple of nights maximum. We did find however that only one of us was able to shower for 5 minutes before the water went cold, meaning only one of us could have a warm shower in the morning. The owner gave really good instructions of how to locate the property and get keys etc which was helpful. Arriving at the property was a shock with the entrance and stairwell extremely dark and sketchy, making us feel slightly unsafe. This seemed contrasting to the photos on the booking, had we seen this we wouldn’t have booked. Such a shame because the location of the apartment itself is so good for walking into the Old Town.

This was a nice apartment with really great and easy instructions to access to. The location is terrific and accessible to many of the most desirable tourist Venues. The bedroom itself was great and had AC. The unit had a cute little balcony. And a washer dryer, which was very handy. The sitting area is basic and was a little hot extra sleeping on the sofa couch. It would be particularly great for a couple.

Hissen var väldigt liten och kändes gammal och ranglig. Lägenheten är på våning 6 så synd med hissen. Är vanligtvis inte höjdrädd, men balkongen kändes lite läskig.
