Tourist attractions in Bucharest

  • Bucharest was first mentioned in documents as early as 1459. Along with the passage of time it has gone through a variety of changes, becoming the state capital of the country in 1862 and steadily stabilizing its position as the core of the Romanian mass media, culture and arts. Its eclectic architecture is a mix of historical (neo-classical), interbellum (Bauhaus and Art Deco) bearing Communist and modern influences. In the period between the two World Wars, the city’s elegant architecture and the sophistication of its elite earned Bucharest the nickname of the “Little Paris of the East” (Micul Paris).
  • The hotel is centrally located so that most of the Bucharest’s touristic objectives, the old city center with its bars and coffee-shops and the most important parks, theatres and cinemas are easily accessible.

  • Victoriei Avenue is a place filled with history,  considered the center of aristocracy, since the 1800′s.
  • The National Art Museum is located just a few steps away from the hotel(5 minutes walk), whereas the Atheneum is in range of 500 m from the hotel.

  • The Palace Hall (“Sala Palatului”) in Bucharest, is a conference centre and concert hall immediately behind the National Art Museum of Romania, the former Royal Palace in the heart of the city. The main hall can accommodate up to 4060 spectators.
