I will return to this place with my parents after having brought my wife and kids for and very pleasant stay. I will also be recommending this place to other friends for its value, location, peaceful inner hof and picturesque outside dining area with antiques and folk art decorating the perimeter. The roses which run up the sides of the... More

We spent 3 nights at Pensinuea Ela in Sibiu this April while visiting Romania. The owner, Ela, is an absolutely wonderful, welcoming person. She greeted us with hugs and great advice about places to visit. There is breakfast (bread, jelly, meats, yogurt) available for 5 euro extra a day- which is nice. We enjoyed getting to meet other people staying... More

This is a clean, picturesque, quiet, and pleasant hotel, and offers pretty good value for money.

My husband and I wandered over to Pensiunea Ela unannounced at about 8 at night while on honeymoon. Despite looking very confused when we rang the bell, the owners quickly led us around their pension and set us up with a room. The room was comfortable and impeccably clean, with a nice, en-suite bathroom (with a decent shower). The bed,... More

This friendly pension is for travelers who prefer authentic home comfort rather than sterile, generic chain hotel rooms. Very clean, cozy rooms. Pleasant colors and rose bushes in summer. Garden area for reading, writing, relaxing. Good Romanian breakfast. The pension is in a historic neighborhood that is a nice 7 minute walk from the main squares.

The place is like a little oasis in the surrounding gray of the road it's on. To be honest, when I first turned the corner to it, I was in an 'oh-no' mood--it seemed too colourless--but when the...

It's a good place to stay if you want to spend a couple of days in Sibiu. The best part by far is the location - just 5 minutes from old city center. Worst part was the quality of service and the attitude of the owner lady. Good: - brilliant location - clean - decent sized rooms - quiet Bad:... More

I picked Pensiunea Ela after Casa Luxemburg could only accommodate me for one of my two nights in Sibiu. . . . Given the low price (100 Lei), I wasn't expecting much -- but found a delightful little guesthouse. Some positives and negatives: Positives ------------ * Staff -- The woman who runs the place and her family are terrific. They... More
