    fascinating architecture
    neglected areas

    The historical architecture was fascinating, and it really added to the

    atmosphere of the hotel. The location near the Christmas market was a delight, and I appreciated the attentive staff who promptly greeted us despite our late arrival. However, some areas in the hotel show signs of neglect.

    Just a good pick for exploring town in Sibiu with outstanding value. The staff was super friendly and helped us find great local dining spots. Bring your own toiletries, they only provide the basics.

    delicious breakfast
    great location
    maintenance issues
    missing duvet
    limited plugs

    Great location near the main square with easy access to nearby attractions. The breakfast offered a wide range of options, including quality cold cuts and eggs cooked to order. However, the room was lacking in maintenance, with a broken shower head holder and a missing duvet, which made for an uncomfortable night. Additionally, there were limited accessible plugs and a non-functional fridge, which affected convenience during the stay.

    charming, charming, charming

    I adored the fantastic views from my room, overlooking the Clock Tower and the main square! The breakfast was a good surprise, offering a range of traditional Romanian options that showcased local culinary delights. And let’s not forget the unique two-level room arrangement that provided ample space for relaxation, which was perfect for my family!

    would recommend 😊❤️

    historic building
    poor maintenance
    noise issues

    prime location next to major attractions, rich historical ambience of the building, charming rustic decor

    The lack of elevator access made carrying luggage a workout!!! Unreliable Wi-Fi hindered my ability to stay connected!!! The room furnishings felt basic, lacking character and necessary amenities!!! Those thin walls let in too much noise from neighboring rooms!!!

    cozy room
    tasty breakfast
    massage service
    missing minibar

    I really enjoyed my stay, especially the warm, cozy feel of the large room and the tasty breakfast each morning. I took advantage of the full-body massage service, which was just what I needed to unwind. The lack of a minibar was a minor letdown, but overall, it was a great experience! 😊
