Located in the Historic Center of Bucharest, Kiriazi Hotel is a property of remarkable historical value, set on a 1,015 sqm plot at the intersection of Blănari Street and Băcani Street, in the immediate vicinity of the iconic Hanul cu Tei. The property benefits from a privileged position within the protected Lipscani area — a historic “lipscănie”-type commercial ensemble, unique in Bucharest and rare at a national level — offering direct access to major urban landmarks such as Lipscani Street, Calea Victoriei, Smârdan Street, and Calea Moșilor. The building is configured as basement + ground floor + two upper floors (S+P+2E), comprising commercial spaces at the basement and ground floor levels and leased residential units on the upper floors. These functions have remained consistent throughout its evolution — commercial activity combined with residential and temporary accommodation use, characteristic of the traditional inn-hotel typology. Constructed in its present form between 1882 and 1884, the building is organized around an interior courtyard and features two principal façades facing Blănari and Băcani Streets, preserving a high degree of architectural and compositional authenticity. The parcel has formed part of the city’s historic urban fabric since the 18th century, when it was occupied by Zamfir’s Inn, erected during that period and later owned by the Sărindar Monastery until the secularization of monastic estates in 1863. Analysis of historical sale and redemption documents indicates that Dr. G. Kiriazi initially acquired portions of Zamfir’s Inn through emphyteusis rights, subsequently purchasing the associated land. Following these acquisitions, he established the hotel along the eastern wing of the former inn, oriented toward Băcani Street, with contemporary press references documenting the early operation of Kiriazi Hotel. After successive acquisitions completed by Dr. G. Kiriazi in 1880 and 1882, Kiriazi Hotel was constructed as a representative example of late 19th-century public hospitality architecture. The building operated as a hotel until its nationalization in 1950, after which it was converted into a residential property — a function it retains today. The property holds significant memorial and symbolic value, being associated both with the personality of Dr. G. Kiriazi and with important cultural and social activities of the era. Within its premises operated Ștefănescu’s Tavern, a venue frequented by Mihai Eminescu, while the newspaper Voința Națională also maintained its headquarters in the building. The property is listed in the National Register of Historic Monuments (Category B). Historical documents and urban plans confirm that the former Zamfir’s Inn occupied the same footprint as the current parcel, extending along Băcani Street toward Lipscani and adjacent to Hanul cu Tei, disproving theories suggesting the inn had been located on the interwar site currently occupied by Club A. At the time of its inauguration, a description published in România Liberă on February 24, 1884 highlighted the remarkable standards of the period: „Stilul Rennaissance, 2 etage în Centrul Capitalei, lângă Lipscani, (…) avend 59 camere, admirabil iluminate și aerate, 2 prăvălii, 2 pivniți, grajd pentru 8-10 cai, șopron pentru 4-5 trăsuri, (…) telefon și telegraf la fiecare cameră”. Through its exceptional location, documented history, architectural authenticity, and functional continuity, Kiriazi Hotel represents a compelling long-term investment opportunity, offering significant restoration and value-enhancement potential in one of Bucharest’s most important historic districts.

During the time when Romania was a Kingdom, the county bearing the name of Târnava Mică was formed, around the homonymous river, in Transylvania, Here, Târnăveni (formerly Târnava-Sân-Martin) functioned as a county seat. In April 1912, Târnăveni is elevated to the rank of city, and advances to gas-powered street lighting. In the year 1918, more precisely on the day of December 1st, the Union of Transylvania to the Motherland was completed. In 1990, December 1st was selected to be the National Day of Romania. Between September and October 1944, the 82nd Infantry Regiment fought valiantly, in the Târnava Mică valley and on the hills around the city, against the German and Hungarian forces. After the Second World War, the established communist regime established an administrative reorganization and a specific socio-economic life for Târnăveni. The history of the city takes us back in time, in 1278, when it was first documented, although traces of human habitation have been found since the Neolithic. The prosperity of the city made its eastern neighbour, the adjacent village of Cuștelnic, to become part of Târnăveni in 2000, through local referendum. Tall, majestic, and bearing a magnetic intensity of the color on the façades, Elszeszer Palace is located at the intersection of two streets in the city center. The history of the building originates in the XIX century, in 1860, around its construction time. The palace provides a generous space with 10 rooms, which have different surfaces and are arranged as: lower ground + ground floor + first floor.The built area totals about 650 sqm, with a footprint of 367 sqm and a usable area of approximately 400 sqm. An asset of the property is the immediate functionality, as the building is connected to all the necessary utilities: water, gas, electricity and sewerage. Therefore, this historical building becomes an interesting space for a future investment, being very versatile and ready to use for several commercial purposes, among which we mention a hotel, an office space or store, a kindergarten or a clinic.

This distinguished property represents one of the rare opportunities to own a residence that brings together architectural heritage, character, and versatility in a refined and harmonious composition. Set on a 1,120 sqm plot, the estate unfolds over a built area of 1,300 sqm and comprises an imposing main villa and two annex houses, offering a total of 30 rooms, 14 bedrooms, and 5 bathrooms — a scale that supports both the intimacy of a private residence and the prestige of a representative headquarters. Built in 1908 on what is today Logofăt Luca Stroici Street (formerly Biserica Popa Chițu Street), the residence was commissioned by engineer Caton Simon and designed by German architect Josef Geggerle (b. 1873), in collaboration with engineer and contractor Wilhelm Brand; during the interwar period, the property was owned by Heinerich Steinberg — details that reinforce its documented historical lineage and identity. The main villa, with its elegant façade, Corinthian columns, and finely crafted architectural details, reveals a charming interior with high ceilings, solid wood herringbone parquet flooring, original chandeliers, and large windows that flood the rooms with natural light. The balanced layout includes multiple reception salons, private offices, and relaxation areas, evoking the atmosphere of an aristocratic residence. The two annex houses, discreetly positioned within the courtyard, perfectly complement the ensemble — ideal for guest accommodation, creative workspaces, or refined offices. The landscaped garden, surrounded by mature trees, offers an oasis of calm in the heart of the city, while the villa’s architectural integrity makes it suitable both as an exclusive private residence and as an embassy or premium company headquarters. The property’s rehabilitation project received an award at the National Architecture Biennale, Bucharest, 2012 — recognition of its architectural value and of an intervention carried out with respect for the building’s original character. Located in the prestigious Icoanei area, one of Bucharest’s most refined and valuable historic districts, the property benefits from a privileged setting, surrounded by shaded streets, elegant villas, and major cultural landmarks. This part of the city has long been associated with artistic life, diplomatic residences, and timeless refinement, offering a balanced blend of tranquility and proximity to the vibrant city center. Blending classical charm with contemporary potential, this emblematic Bucharest property stands as a true architectural statement — grand, elegant, and ready to embrace a new destination worthy of its stature.
