Top Gilau Hotel Reviews

Hampton by Hilton Cluj-Napoca

Hampton by Hilton Cluj-Napoca

8/10 Good
"Hampton by Hilton is a modern, relatively new hotel situated within walking distance from the city center. The room was spacious and clean. The mattress was medium firm. Breakfast was included in the room rate and was adequate. Parking costs 60 RON per night. The only thing I missed was a shoehorn in the room. When I mentioned this at reception they did not bother. All other staff were welcoming and helpful. No restaurant on premises but there is one really close, with decent food and good service. I recommend using taxis throughout Cluj/Kolozsvár; they are really cheap and fast."
