Casa Georgius Krauss

Top choice in Sighişoara


This dazzling boutique hotel is hived out of an old burgher's house at the northern end of the citadel. The restoration left period details like wood-beamed ceilings, while adding tasteful modern bathrooms and plush-linened beds. The Krauss Room, number 2, has original paintings, including a medieval coat of arms, plus a four-poster bed.

Other rooms are a little smaller, though all have quality hardwood furnishings and unique touches such as a fireplace in number 1 and a sunken bed in the attic room, number 9.

Staff are friendly and accommodating and there's a quality restaurant with a fabulous wine list. Rooms are priced by size and some have air-conditioning.
