I was very happy to return to Continental Forum in October 2021, even for a night. This is a hotel which bucked the trend and remained wonderful, while others changed for the worse.
First - the same friendly, efficient staff is still there. The rooms are spacious and clean, and the bathrooms modern, with shower with a movable head as well as rain.
Second - no false savings. They still offer individual toiletries and travel kits, packaged in bottles and not stuck to the wall. I love them for it. Cleaning service is daily.
Third - a wonderful kitchen. For a hearty breakfast in a spacious room, as well as for room service. And a full minibar, plus tea and coffee maker and supplies in the room.
These factors, together with its location in the literal center of Arad, make it my repeated choice over the years. I will be back!
S&A: The hotel is fully wheelchair-accessible and all rooms have double locks with a blocker from the inside.
