5 Stars High Hostel

I enjoyed this place. I liked everything about it, especially the staff, café, veranda...
The architecture along the walks to old town was unforgettable.
The place shouts Bohemian Bucharest.
Clean amd quirky.
Yummy breakfast.
Helpful staff that go out of their way to make your stay memorable
Not to mention it's the most affordable place in toen! 

I slept in thia hotel in october 2023 for 4 nights. Good position for visit the city, reception is open 24H breakfast is avaible by menu a la carte until 11 A.M. Clean room, very helpful staff and good value for money.

Nice quiet hotel in the center of Bucharest. With elements of Indian style in the interior. In the morning you can hear birds singing.
Check-in from 2 p.m. There are single rooms and a luggage storage room.

Bus 783 (cost 6 RON) from the airport to Piata Victoriei & then a 5 or 6 mins walk to the hotel. A quick & friendly check in by Daniel who, with my room key card in hand, also showed me to my 3rd floor room.
A nice sized room & even though I was travelling solo it was easily spacious enough for 2 people. Clean with a walnut laminate floor, luggage rack, large wardrobe, safe, extra towels, coat rack/hooks, work desk, tv, 2 armchairs, coffee table, fridge, double bed, smoke alarm, radiator, aircon & 3 spare electrical sockets. A small window & a door & panel (to nowhere, no balcony) meant an abundance of natural light, blackout curtains kept the room dark in the morning. No issues with noise from outside or inside the hotel. There was no kettle, tea or coffee in the room. There was no iron in the room but when I inquired at reception, I was given one & an ironing board immediately. Wi-Fi was password protected, quick to connect to, consistent with fast speeds & auto reconnected instantly.
My bathroom was a nice size, clean with tiled floor & walls, bidet, towel radiator, hairdryer, mirror, 2 small bottles of shampoo, wall fan/vent, towels, basin & unit, shower cubicle with shower head & hose on a riser rail, easily controlled shower valve with plenty of hot water & very good water pressure.
I went down for breakfast (07:30 – 10:00) at 09:10 & it was quiet. Table service only, ordered from the menu with fried eggs, omelettes, salami, yoghurt, cheese, toast, bread, jam, butter, melted cheese, sliced tomatoes, tea, coffee, orange juice, water & milk.
The bar was very quiet & far from expensive with Ursus Romanian lager costing just RON5.00 for a 330mls bottle. I had a great conversation there about Romanian history with David who spoke fantastic English & who covered the reception, the bar & breakfast.
The hotel has one lift & there is a shoe buffing/shining machine in the foyer. There is very little in the way of restaurants, bars, cafes, shops etc in the immediate vicinity of the hotel but the close by Calea Victoriei has a multitude of all of those. No more than 10 mins walk from the hotel on Calea Victoriei I found a great courtyard bar & bistro called Green Hours. Great staff & a chilled out atmosphere with 500mls tankards of draft Ursus lager costing RON12.00. It took me 25 mins to walk from the hotel & down Calea Victoriei to the old town, stopping several times on the way to take photos. Gare Du Nord station is the first stop from the nearest metro to the hotel. As I had loads of time & the weather was nice & dry, I walked to Gare Du Nord & that took me 20 mins & it was an easy straight forward walk. I must add that all of the locals that I asked for directions were more than helpful, friendly & generous with their time as language difficulties did occur often.

I had a single room, and while I was doing tours most days, every night I came back and the bed was made, new shampoo and soap was waiting, and heat was on (if it was cold outside). They had a TV in the room and a safe (I didn't use either) and I always had hot water. They offer breakfast, but since I was gone so early most days, I didn't try the food, but it looked and smelled good! Also a bonus for me; there are cats on the property! If you're allergic, you may not be as happy as I was! It is on the outskirts of the city center, and around the corner from a major street with bus transport or you can walk straight to the middle of the city center. There is a mini market around the corner, and Spago restaurant only a few feet away. Everyone spoke perfect English, so I didn't have to attempt the few words of Romanian that I learned (I did elsewhere in the city, though). This is a good value for your money!

Best of Bucharest 

A little bit on the quiet side but still, a great stay.

Good value for your money!

Very good experience 

5-star hostel of the 1st sector

I stayed here for about a week.
 the room was small, but functional. The shower was quite large, which was nice. I did find the bathroom smell funny, but I suspect it was a close to the sewer vent. They don’t change the towels and sheets every day to be honest. I’m not sure if they changed them at all while I was there. The staff was friendly and helpful. When asked the price was very budget friendly. Had lots of free Wi-Fi throughout the facility. I found it be an excellent location , you’re about 300 m or so from the subway but you’re in a very quiet area, so you didn’t get the city it was on a quiet street. I think it’s an excellent location for a short stay. Did you serve breakfast in the mornings at a cost and they also have a restaurant bar there as well .

Good short term stay.

BEWARE: When the clerk says:, "Don't worry, we will work out the price later"
$175.00 USD to clean two(2) loads of laundry
$150.00 USD to extent stay. (day rate)
...so many better choices in the city. So many lest "sleezy" clerks
