DACIA Business Lounge – Bucharest (OTP)
The DACIA Business Lounge at Bucharest Octopeni airport, located in the international wing on a mezzanine above gate 7 serves primarily TAROM premium passengers (it used to be branded as the TAROM Business Lounge), but is also open to customers of a variety of airlines, and all passengers on a pay-in basis.
The club is operated by the local airport authority. Practically speaking, passengers eligible for lounge access on any airline can typically visit any of the lounges at Octopeni airport, which all offer substantially the same amenities.

Located on a mezzanine overlooking the tarmac, the luminous DACIA Business Lounge boasts cathedral ceilings and a panoramic glass wall with expansive views on the airport grounds. Despite its prime location, the club has two shortcomings—noise bleeds in from the lower-level boarding area, and the space can get uncomfortably warm on sunny days.
The open layout features a variety of seating options that comfortably accommodate solo travelers, families, and groups.

Next to the reception desk are two couches with side tables—a popular hang-out for families, with room for little ones to spread out without bothering guests in the main seating area. Beyond the buffet area is a spacious dining area, more intimate tables for two by the window, and inviting curvy couches with coffee tables.
Strategically placed indoor plants break up the space and help enhance privacy.
Charging devices is easy and convenient, with power outlets in the ground throughout the space, as well as charging points equipped with various cables and adapters for electronics and cell phones.
The appearance of the lounge has room for improvement. The carpet is stained in multiple places, and the staff can be slow to pick up dirty dishes and service items.
DACIA Business Lounge OTP amenities
The DACIA Business Lounge at Bucharest airport offers basic amenities.
DACIA Business Lounge – Bucharest (OTP)
The snack selection is mostly underwhelming, with a variety of chips and peanuts, though there are a few welcome surprises including a variety of dairy products, and the occasional mini-sandwich. The drink selection is much more generous, with a variety of juices (including a tasty peach juice), mineral water, red and white wines, and self-service middle-shelf liquor, and an espresso machine. There is also a bar, though the expectation is that patrons will help themselves from the buffet area.
Business amenities are relatively limited. The DACIA Business Lounge lacks a dedicated Wi-Fi access point; and while the airport offers free Wi-Fi, the service is slow and unreliable. The business center features six work cubicles and Internet-connected laptop computers. There is no printer, but a fax/copier is available.
A spacious and luminous smoking room with expansive runway views is located to the left of the reception desk. The lounge lacks a bathroom, though public facilities are available immediately outside.

DACIA Business Lounge OTP bottom line
The DACIA Business Lounge at Bucharest Octopeni airport is a pleasant and comfortable lounge with a generous beverage selection. The amenities are limited, especially for a club which primarily serves international travelers—the lack of a bathroom and a dedicated Wi-Fi access point are glaring omissions.
Despite its shortcomings, the typically quiet lounge is a haven at an airport that remains largely unattractive overall.
- The ample daylight and views.
- The varied and comfortable seating options.
- The beverage selection.
- The uncomfortable temperature.
- The minimalistic food selection.
- The slow Wi-Fi.

Overall ratings
Small but tidy lounge. Good selection of food and not too busy midweek
Even 1 star is to much for this place. To small or too many people in it. This can happen, but you are welcomed by everything except a smile and cleaning does not excist. Skip it, even if you have free access, and search for a better place

You can put the TAROM and MasterClass Business Class Lounges together. Description and pictures are the same. There is no officual MasterClass Business Class Lounge in international area.
One of the worst Sky team lounges I have ever been too. The worse thing about it is their horrible customer service. The reception is ok, however the staff serving in the lounge is like a bunch of low grade service employees more suited for a one star hotel. They are many and they are LOUD. Since the place is majorly overstaffed – over 6-7 staff walking pretend to replenish stuff essentially they just sit around talking loudly to each other. Recently they improved the food situation a bit after at least 6 or 7 years of bashing from the international community about their standards. they now have soggy white bread sandwiches. Forget about warm food, soup, anything nutritions, fresh fruit. They have a canned odd looking fruit-like offering. Just really a distasteful cheap, horrid place. They also changed the furniture. I am not sure who was in charge but the couches they replaced are so extremely uncomfortable, hard to be any worse. they use to have 3 large white sofas in the front. They were at least easy to sit on. Now you can get a backache within minutes, especially after a flight and waiting for another one. Just whoever manages this place is doing a really poor job with no though of the customer in mind, severly under the international standards and the only thing I can compliment them for is that at least they put a small effort to improve the food. My advice to any sky team elite members, if you have the chance, just avoid flying with tarom and having to use this lounge
This is sure the most horrible business lounge at an international airport. Rude staff and no facilities. Zero food apart from a few stale crisps and peanuts. Better to wait at the overcrowded burger place downstairs. Truly terrible.
