This penthouse apartment sits above the Bucharest rooftops, with arched balcony openings that frame the city in a way few places can. The living room spills out onto a loggia with outdoor seating, while the marble bathrooms with gold fittings bring a quieter kind of luxury indoors. There's room for a large group to spread out comfortably, with two living rooms and four bedrooms each designed for rest. The National Theater is a three-minute walk away, and Piața Universității metro station is five minutes on foot – central in the most useful sense.

Home truths
At full occupancy, four guests will sleep two double sofa beds – there's one in each of the living areas.
One of the en-suites is shared between bedrooms two and three and can be accessed from both rooms.
If you're travelling with little ones, your host can provide a travel cot. You'll need to request it in advance.
Given the home's central spot, expect to hear some street noise throughout your stay.
The Old Town, the Romanian Athenaeum, and Universitate Square are all within a ten-minute walk, so you're well placed to explore the city centre on foot without needing a car.
There's a CCTV camera on the exterior covering the entrance.
All guests are required to sign a rental agreement and provide valid ID here.
