Our Story

Enjoying a gorgeous location near Cismigiu Park and within walking distance to all landmarks that define Bucharest’s identity, Epoque allows you to stroll effortlessly to the Romanian Athenaeum or the Bucharest Opera House for an evening performance, to the Royal Palace, which is now hosting the National Art Museum, or to Piata Constitutiei for an open-air concert.

Theatres, live-music venues, and the bustling Old City Centre are also within easy reach. For business travels, Hotel Epoque is conveniently located in proximity of the business and banks district.

Set in eclectic surroundings, Epoque will be an inspirational context for your journey through the ages of Bucharest, as it reveals a décor of character through a captivating interpretation of neo-Romanian architecture.

Since 2018, Epoque Hotel is the only hotel in Romania, member of Relais & Chateaux. Relais & Châteaux, established in 1954, is an association of 580 unique hotels and restaurants throughout the world, owned and operated by independent entrepreneurs–most often families–who are passionate about their craft and deeply committed to forging warm, lasting relationships with their guests.

Epoque’s architecture proposes a tribute to Bucharest’s “petit Paris” age in classical French style. The interior is a more personal experience, revealing a contemporary interpretation of the Neo-Romanian style typical for the first half of the XIXth century, with a strong hold on national attributes. The rooms are gracefully shaped with arcs and columns recalling monastic serenity and colours are noble and peaceful, inducing an omnipresent feeling of harmony.

Epoque’s recurrent pattern, a double teardrop that is part of a traditional representation of the solar wheel, is magically capturing the soul of the place.
