The ibis Bucharest Politehnica hotel, led by General Manager Raluca Mandache, recorded a 4.71% turnover increase in the first part of 2026 compared to 2025, consolidating its position in the Bucharest hotel market. The property, the first ibis Agora Concept in Europe, has developed as a meeting point for IT companies, academia, and the business segment in the Politehnica area.<\/p>\n
In the first part of 2026, the hotel reported an average occupancy rate of 76.88% (down 1% compared to the same period in 2025), an 8.15% increase in average daily rate (ADR), and a 7% rise in revenue per available room (RevPAR). The results follow a 2025 in which revenues grew by 8% compared to 2024, driven by a 4.55% increase in occupancy rate, a 4.3% higher ADR, and a 9% increase in RevPAR. Furthermore, guest ratings on international platforms rose to 90.84, compared to 89.11 previously.<\/p>\n
The property’s activity combines the corporate segment during the week with leisure on weekends. The main clients are companies from the western part of the capital, event and congress participants, academia, individual tourists, and cultural or sports groups. At the managerial level, the main challenges identified are staff recruitment and retention, rising operational costs, and accelerated digitalization. In the TopHotel Awards competition, the property took first place in the Best Hotel 3\u2605 category in 2025, along with other awards between 2022 and 2026.<\/p>\n
