Our story

A house, not a hotel chain

Brater is a small, family-run hotel — and you can tell in the small things: someone remembers your name, the lobby coffee never runs out, and the rooms are clean the way well-kept homes are clean. It's no accident that the word that comes up most often in our reviews is 'the staff'.

The best compliment we get is not a perfect score. It is the guest who comes back and asks for the same room.

How it feels

You feel it the first evening

At any hour

You arrive when you arrive — noon or two in the morning. The front desk never closes, and someone is waiting.

The coffee is ready

In the lobby, around the clock: coffee, tea and something sweet. No need to ask, nothing to pay.

Breakfast

Buffet, available on request. Taken by the windows facing the lake.

Nights are quiet

We are on the lakeshore, not on a boulevard. You can sleep with the window open.

Rooms

Eighteen rooms, three suites, one penthouse

Most face the lake. Some have balconies. All have air conditioning, fast Wi-Fi, and beds our guests write about in reviews.

Included

The things you do not pay extra for

01

Private parking in the yard

Free, behind the gate. In Bucharest, that is a bigger luxury than it sounds.

02

Coffee and tea, around the clock

In the lobby, with something sweet. At any hour, no need to ask.

03

24/7 front desk

Arriving at two in the morning? Someone will be awake.

04

Fast Wi-Fi

Throughout the building. Enough for video calls, not just email.

05

The lake, steps away

The shore and the park start right outside the gate. Good for a morning run.

06

People who remember your name

It is the only thing on this list nobody can copy.
