Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Esplanada is a good hotel ,but not quite a 4 star hotel. Very good location, nearby the train and bus station, with good view over Danube, clean and large room, free parking, good breakfast. BUT the jacuzzi and sauna aren't in use, noisy air conditioning.

Good things: near city center, close to the seafront, that's all! Bad things: all the room windows are dirty, the breakfast is execrable (a horrible full of oil omelette, tomatoes without taste, the coffee maker is malfunctioning, the air conditioning in the room makes a deafening noise (you had to stay warm to be able to rest), lowest quality of the toilet paper, at 10 pm the lobby bar closes, the door handle was defective, and so on....

I really recommend this hotel. It is right next to the bus and train station overlooing the Danube waterfront (ask for that view). THe staff are friendly and rooms are very comfortable. THe breakfast was below parand there was not much soap or shampoo in the bathroom but apart from that it was a really good stay

The hotel itself has a great location, nice views and really stands out for its parking, which in Tulcea during summertime is a living nightmare. Nevertheless, the rooms are a bit old and furnishings a bit used-up, for sure not living to the 4-stars standards. I used 3-star hotels in other locations in Romania which were by far much more better furnished. Breakfast is good and varied. Presentation of breakfast and location could have been improved a bit. Hotel is very good for business travelers, especially that is in close proximity to VARD shipyards.

It is hard to call this a 5-star hotel because it really isn't, but that doesn't mean that it isn't a fine place to stay when you visit Tulcea. I took a maxitaxi to Tulcea from Bucharest, and the Esplanada is literally next door to the bus station, so it was an easy decision for me to make. The hotel's rear entrance faces the esplanade, so you can walk down and easily review all of the various fast boats and tour boats before you choose. The front entrance faces the downtown area, so it's a quick walk to restaurants, drugstores, cathedrals, etc. I didn't have a reservation, but the front desk staff was cordial and let me take a look at the room before I committed (Room 616). As other reviewers have mentioned, the bathrooms show a history of flooding, but I was just really careful with the shower when I used it. There wasn't a coffee maker or kettle in my room, but there was a small stocked bar refrigerator. I didn't have a patio, but the windows opened and the view across the esplanade and bay was always interesting. The breakfast buffet (included in my room charge) was adequate. I actually ate dinner there every evening because I was so tired from the days' activities that I just wanted to shower, eat, and go to bed. I am primarily vegetarian, and I loved the Greek Salad so much I had it each time. There is a long menu though with a lot of variety.

Very nice location right on the waterfront - The Danube . Very nice food/dinner on the terrase overlooking the Danube BUT very poor breakfast (definitely not 4 stars) and very unprofessional front desk staff !!! So, beware of the room (I was given a room which was already occupied) and the reservation was very unclear! They had no clue the room was booked ! Fortunetely, the hotel was NOT fully bookwd!!!

The hotel is in a centralized location where you can walk to the grocery store and along the water with many options for restaurants close by. Many varieties for breakfast. Fitness room was very nice with very good options to work up a sweat. Very spacious room.

We stopped for breakfast at this hotel after a disappointing one the day before at our own hotel. This did not disappoint. A buffet style breakfast. Something for everyone with cereals, yoghurt, juice, coffee, tea, traditional romanian pastries and continental style breakfast with cheese, smoked meats, bread and other savoury accompaniments.
