Reviews for Hotel Villa Franca

Review 1:Nothing

Review 2:This Villa is located in the old center of the town, very friendly staff, the best room i ever seen, very comfortable, clean and nice decorated. Everything was fine. Breakfast was very tasty with great choice and different sorts of tea

Review 3:Room was large and comfortable. Ours had view to the Clock Tower. Location is very good (2 minutes walk to the citadel). Very romantic atmosphere given by the canopy bad. Breakfast can be served until 11 am, which was great as most of the hotels offer BF only until 10 am.

Review 4:We have visited Sighisoara multiple times this past year and feel fortunate to have finally "discovered" this gorgeous hotel. Fantastic price/value, enormous + stylish room, comfortable seating area, voluminous well-appointed bathroom, four-poster bed, lightning fast + consistent wifi, friendly staff, and a great central location close to pubs, restaurants, and grocery store (ten-minute walk from train station). Absolutely recommended.

Review 5:I liked the look and feel of the room, it was warm and cozy. The room was perfectly clean. The young girl from the reception was very helpful. We arrived early but we still checked in earlier. Staff was very friendly. It was a very nice experience. Highly recommended.

Review 6:Nothing.

Review 7:The receptionist welcome us with very nice smile on her face. She helped us to find the ticket for our next day trip to other city. She was really very helpful. The location of this hotel is very central. You walk everywhere. The room was amazing. I really slept so well. I highly recommend this place for your Sighisoara visit.

Review 8:Awkward check-in time from 16:00 to 18:00 although reception is open until late in the night. WiFi did not work in the bedroom, only in the lobby.

Review 9:Excellent location, excellent staff, helpful and friendly. Beautiful luxury decorations, good breakfast. Free bike for guests, comfortable beds, good seized bedroom and bathroom. I highly recommend it.

Review 10:As I am a genius client in booking.com, they said we would get a welcome drink, what never happened. No parking, but it is easy to find a spot at the streets around, so no big deal. The bed was very noisy, so you better don`t move while sleeping. The bathroom was smelling a bit at night.

Review 11:Excellent location, great staff, check in could be done later ( I was worried because booking indicates a time-limit for the check in). The breakfast was 5 euro, but it was really good, at least. Rooms with a nice size and clean.

Review 12:Good taste in bringing to life the elegant approach of 1900 architecture. Spacious. Clean. Excellent breakfast, best jams - try the green nuts & milk jam! Pefect location, bellow the watch tower.

Review 13:- Squeaky floor! - Don't recommend parking in front of the hotel. It's a very narrow alley and someone scratched my car. There are public parking spaces near the hotel on the street. - For a tall person, the canopy bed seems rather small

Review 14:- Excelent breakfast - Good location (2 minutes to the main gate of the citadel) - Nice room with canopy bed

Review 15:The hotel is small but very cosy. The building is an old, well-renovated house in the heart of the Old Town, situated in a little, quiet street. We had a very cosy and romantic room. Absolutely charming interior in a very good taste.

Review 16:Ask for high floor room the one's on the lower lever are very noisy and on top you can hear every single move from the upper rooms (floor boards)

Review 17:In the heart of the city

Review 18:No lift and VERY squeaky floorboards but I suppose that is all part of staying in such a beautiful old building.

Review 19:The most beautifully decorated hotel room we have ever stayed in. Very spacious, comfortable rooms and huge bathroom. Friendly, helpful staff and good breakfasts. Right in the heart of town, surrounded by a great choice of restaurants and just a few minutes walk to the old city walls.

Review 20:Being an old house I guess this is to be expected, it was all sooo squeaky.. It was impossible to sleep if someone turned on their bed, not to mention if they went to the bathroom. Also we had a sofa-bed because we shared an apartment and it was so amazingly squeaky that we preferred to put the mattress on the floor and sleep there.

Review 21:Very nice refurbished old house, perfect place to visit Sighisoara from. Wonderful friendly staff, all speak multiple languages. The rooms are nice, described by some of our friends as "princess rooms", decorated in a classic, tasteful style. We had a wonderful stay, all 18 of us.

Review 22:There isn't enough light in the room and the TV didn't seem to work very well. The breakfast isn't really worth the price (could probably get a similar one in one of the nearby restaurants for half the price), they kept running out of various items to the point when they had to go to the shop to buy tomatoes. It was also extremely hot in the room were the breakfast was served, with no aircon. But then again, the staff was really nice and very apologetic to the lack of items :)

Review 23:The hotel has a fantastic city centre location, close to the main attractions of Sighisoara. The room was very spacious and the canopy bed very comfy. The staff were also extremely nice!

Review 24:Very beautiful place a little bit up on a hil, very nice owner. Unfortunately we just stayed one day and left early in the morning so we couldn't try the breakfast. We got a very large room in the top of the building with two balconys and and extremely beautiful view. We really recommend this place.

Review 25:No elavator to the room, hard to find parking

Review 26:Location , the hotel is located in the old city main attraction , walking The stuff was friendly and helpfull, large and clean room. Breakfast was satisfied

Review 27:No elevator, noisy stairs and floor (as it is old wood). Very thick quilts and very hard bed. I don't know but we haven't managed to get a normal temperature in the room during the night either the t was tooooo hot or toooo cold.

Review 28:Great location. Very but I mean very clean and excellent view.

Review 29:- charged extra €5 fir a cot for my 8 month old - their machine didn't work for credit card payment and they had no money to give any change so we had to scounge around for the exact money which caused delays at check out

Review 30:- staff were very nice and kind. Even helped carry our luggage up the stairs - the room was available do they let us check in early - rooms were huge, clean and comfortablw. Canopy bed a nice touch - breakfast was great value, really worth the €5 - location great, walk from the train station, walk to all the sites

Review 31:I have stayed here many times - one of the top 2 hotels / pensions in Sighisoara in my opinion! Large, well-furnished rooms. 4-poster beds in superior and deluxe rooms! Unusual, tasteful decor, in keeping with the historic town centre. Great location. Own parking (limited spaces). Friendly, helpful staff. Excellent all round!

Review 32:The hotel is very close to the centre of Sighisoara, so we could get around without having to drive during our stay. The room was perfect. Clean, with romantic lighting and a relaxing atmosphere. The canopy bed was definitely a bonus. The personnel was very nice, the breakfast was delicious and we will undoubtedly recommend Villa Franca to our friends.

Review 33:No hotel marking on the main street at the intersection with the narrow entry and no private hotel parking spot with possibility for reservation.

Review 34:Excellent location, directly under the historic city enclosure, close to all museums and touristic sites. A short hike of about 5 minutes will take you there. The room was excellent just as the professionalism of personnel starting from reception to waiters and cleaning personnel.... Parking ticket valid anywhere in entire city for about €1,00. Overall excellent value for price!

Review 35:The rooms on the top floor was hot, without even a fan, on the lower floors definitely cooler, wi fi doesnt work.

Review 36:Spacious comfortable room, clean, nice bathroom and perfect location

Review 37:The mattress had springs we could feel. Was OK, but should have been better. Oh and the shower... Well the head would not stay in its mount...

Review 38:If you are driving the location is great... Easy parking and just below the old town. The place looks good, and the floors all creak when you walk on them... Perfect for Dracula! Added to the fun.

Review 39:The reception staff smoked indoors in a room behind the reception and it smelled cigarettes in the entire reception area. Although the room was very large, the bed was hard to sleep in since it creaked all the time.

Review 40:Good location, close to the old town. Very large room and bathroom in old style design. Good WiFi. Great view from the room, we could see the Clock Tower. The breakfast is very basic, but good

Review 41:The wireless had almost no signal for room 3 and was impossible to use The room has a horrible view towards a dirty building The terrace next to the room had loud music starting from 8 am and the smell of food being cooked filled the room ; it was impossible to keep the window closed because it was very hot and the room didn't have AC The water was either so hot to burn you either too cold Our fridge did not work and even thought we requested it to be changed, the staff said they had changed it but it was the same non functional one

Review 42:The inner courtyard of the building is beautiful, clean, full of flowers The location is very close to shops, restaurants and the citadell The room was clean, the bed quite impressive with the canopy

Review 43:Excellent location in Sughisoara. Very clean and staff were all very friendly and helpful. Really grateful for their help in sending me my necklace that I had left behind!

Review 44:ceiling above the bathtub/shower was a bit low. not a big deal.

Review 45:Well located, walking distance to the old town, very friendly staff. large room, lovely ambiance.

Review 46:uncomfortable and noisy beds the rooms that face the inner courtyard are noisy

Review 47:location, location, location the receptionists are nice the rooms are clean and have an interesting design

Review 48:Breakfast - lots to improve there. Maybe a bigger bed :)

Review 49:3 mins away from the entry to the Citadel - Clock Tower. Spacious and clean room. Great location.

Review 50:Breakfast definitely not worth 5 Eur - better at any restaurant at half of this price. Scrambled eggs disgusting. WI-FI refuses working in the room at third floor.

Review 51:Excelent location. Car parking place free next to the hotel. The design of the hotel as well as the room was really nice and climatic corresponding with the medieval times.

Review 52:lots of stairs to climb, but they did offer to help us with our bags. couldn't get the Wi-Fi to work

Review 53:beautiful hotel, incredible room, décor was amazing, and so lovely to have a bath as well as a shower

Review 54:Hotel staff was very friendly. Location was very good (although outside of the citadel, some few steps take you up to the Clock Tower). Breakfast was varied and plenty. Room was comfortable, although some noise from the neighbors could be heard.

Review 55:It was very close to old town. Walking distance from train station (or $2taxi). Rooms had great character and were clean. Helpful and friendly staff.

Review 56:Everything was perfect, could not ask for more. Staff was impeccable, the style and layout of the hotel, attention to detail, cleanliness and of course the amazing bed! Probably the best service and advice from staff in 5 hotels we stayed with throughout the trip, Miss ANCA at the reception was brilliant with useful advice on restaurant and sightseeing, I would congratulate her personally and her management for excellent service.

Review 57:My biggest disappointment was the shower. There was no head room to stand up in there and take a proper shower without bumping your head on the ceiling. If you are bigger than 1,6 m you cannot fit into the shower. The bedsheets were small in dimension and I could not properly cover myself during the night. Another minus was the parking spot, I parked on the major street and they did not have a private and guarded parking lot. The WiFi was very poor!!!

Review 58:The room and the bathroom were clean and well arranged. I liked the big screen TV to which I plugged in my laptop via HDMI. The sheets were clean and I liked the classic theme of the room with antique furniture.

Review 59:Very good quality for the price. Very good breakfast so it's worth the extra charge. Great location. Very clean and in very good condition. Nice staff.

Review 60:A really nice place to stay: it's almost directly under the path up to the citadel and the clock tower. (though you can reach it from the newer town).We had a comfortable quite large room, all wood-panelled. The staff are lovely, very helpful and good humoured and made it fun to stay there. The breakfast is fantastic, with a lot of high quality local foods - cheese, meat, homemade jams and so on. We were sad to leave.. Thanks for a great stay.

Review 61:WIFI did not work in room. Room on 3rd floor, no elevator. Room dark and claustrophobic -- only 2 small high windows. Very hot, no fan or AC. No shower curtain, shower nozzle pointing outside of tub. Parking on street for 5 LEI. Breakfast very poor, no fruit, terrible smell from steam table. Strong deodorizer smell and loud music in lobby.

Review 62:Location close to main square. Delightful receptionist.

Review 63:No wifi signal in our room. Possibly a temporary problem.

Review 64:Located at the foot of the Citadel hill. Beautiful and spacious room. Very nice staff. Varied and tasty breakfast.

Review 65:Camerele amenajate cu gust in stil medieval, calduroase, curate si personal care raspunde promp cerintelor.Totodata, pozitia vilei este in imediata apropiere de turnul cu ceas!

Review 66:The bed frame squeeked with any slight movement, and as such caused a continuous intrusion into one's sleep. Also we had to pay cash as their cash card machine would not accept our cards.

Review 67:Location of hotel to town centre & friendly staff.

Review 68:This hotel is situated at the bottom of the stairs leading you to the castle. It is extremely convenient, The rooms are spacious, clean and up to standard in all aspects. The service is very welcoming and friendly as well. The bed was very comfortable and with quietness around it made a perfect sleep. What I loved most is that for the breakfast this hotel supply with very high standard of meat products without any preservatives or chemistry which nowadays is rather rare from the shop at the corner. The food was so good we made some purchase to take with us home at amazingly low prices. I would recommend it to anyone.

Review 69:The hotel is set in an ancient house in the old city, very close to the clock tower. The place has been totally refurbished with great style, preserving antique atmosphere. Staff exceptionally nice!

Review 70:The bedroom would benefit from better lighting. I thought the 75% of the total booking pre authorization was way too much. 25% would be much more acceptable.

Review 71:The staff were excellent, couldn't do enough to make our stay perfect!

Review 72:- We shared a room with a group of friends and one of the beds was a sofa bed, which wasn't as comfortable

Review 73:- excellent location - helpful and friendly staff - good breakfast

Review 74:I can't say it was a big issue but maybe the lack of parking space can be a minus. However, keeping in mind that you are in Romania and the parking it's not so restricted like other countries, parking just outside the hotel on a narrow street is possible!

Review 75:I still can't believe it how a location can this can be rated as a 3* ... Everything it's so beautiful! Our room was so big (no 12 if I remember well, 2nd floor), the four poser bed was so impressive and confy, bathroom very clean aswell as the rest of the location! Villa Franca has the most helpful staff at the reception, very polite, warm, with a positive attitude and always smiley!

Review 76:The bed was worn out as we felt the springs jabbing us in the side most of the night. The breakfast offerings were great, but the eggs were cold.

Review 77:Really classy and nicely kept facilities. The staff was very kind and helpful. The room was spacious and the price was terrific!

Review 78:Some rooms may be affected by noise from adjacent pizza joint, though this stops by bedtime.

Review 79:Free upgrade to four-poster bed, superb wooden furniture, a real classic room. Good location, but on side street away from traffic

Review 80:They charged my credit card with 10 days before check-in date with entire amount (I reserved 3 rooms). Creaking floors Breakfast room

Review 81:The room, very helpful staff

Review 82:No restaurant onsite, but there's several options around. The parking is street, not private but it worked perfectly ok for us.

Review 83:The location is superb. The staff was very helpful and nice; they offered a room upgrade the minute we walked in there. It is very close to every point of interest in the city. Would definitely visit again without a second thought. excellent quality-value ratio.

Review 84:The breakfast was very tasty, with home made ingredients. We loved the room and especially the bed with canopy. It takes you back in time to another age.

Review 85:The bed was making a lot of noise at any movement.

Review 86:The style of the rooms is very original, the villa is close to the old town, te staff was very friendly and was helpful with the parking. We received even a discount card for the next visit. The wifi was working good.

Review 87:Noisy wooden floor and stairs. Not enough parking places on site, but there are a lot of public parking places around.

Review 88:Location (2 minutes walking to Citadel), clean and nice room, good breakfast.

Review 89:The floor was so creaky we thought we would wake the whole hotel simply by walking across the room!

Review 90:Nice rooms and a nice facility just off the main road.

Review 91:Very poor bed, with an uncomfortable mattress. TV signal poor and a small selection of TV stations. If you need to travel early in the morning, breakfest starts too late (I believe however that breakfest is served after 7, not sure if 8 am).

Review 92:Good hotel, clean and close to the old center and to the Train station.

Review 93:I travel a lot around in world but it's the first time that the hotel require to pay in advance at check-in instead at check-out. Anyway for me it's not acceptable that the room was not cleaned after first night but only changed the towels. Never will see me again in this hotel.

Review 94:Sighisoara city

Review 95:The room was wonderful: spacious, with a fantastic canopy bed (very comfortable!) and dim light. One of the most romantic rooms we've ever stayed in! Very good location. On a narrow, cobbled street; in the historic centre of Sighișoara. The stuff were pleasant and extremely helpful. Without a doubt, the hotel was the highlight of our stay in Sighișoara!

Review 96:TV was not so good but..parking is available locally for 5 lei per day, this could be a little inconvenient depending on where you get a space

Review 97:Large rooms, well decorated, great bed, super location, very clean and in all a very pleasant experience , excellent value this was a bonus ! Would thoroughly recommend this hotel, a real gem

Review 98:The low ceiling made showering in the bath very difficult, omelette breakfast cold.

Review 99:Very good location near to town centre, the rooms were furnished in a classical style with a 4 poster bed, large bedroom and bathroom.

Review 100:The room service was quite slow and the smell of cigarette smoke on the hallways.

Review 101:The room was nicely decorated, the breakfast was excellent and the location excellent, very close to the citadel and site seeing places.

Review 102:Staff weren't rude, they just seemed unwilling to make an effort to accommodate simple and not unusual requests, like honouring an early check-in request made through Booking.com. The reception area was also smoky.

Review 103:The hotel is located about a five-minute walk away from the Citadel. It's in a little side street off the main street. Our room was spacious, clean, comfortable, and had a great view of the Clock Tower - especially lovely at night. Breakfast had a great variety, with lots of organic products and vegetarian options. I would recommend the Villa Franka to anyone.

Review 104:A pub about 50 - 100m away blasted musing until about 6am. It was impossible to sleep, even with ear plugs and the window closed.

Review 105:Staff is great. Location is excellent - a short walk up the hill to the old town. Solid and clean 3-star hotel.

Review 106:What a nice (and good looking) place! An "old house", but totally arranged and transformed. Friendly staff and nice double room with good facilities (private WC). Located near the city center. But easy to park the car, if you need. Good wireless connection is a plus.

Review 107:Had to make up bed for the children and ask for extra bed for older son not what you want to do when you arrive at a new place.

Review 108:Great breakfast and good location. Staff were cheerful and polite.

Review 109:The reception staff could be more attentive and capitalize on customers needs...

Review 110:Excelent location and beautiful view over the old city. Nice and clean rooms.

Review 111:No air con, although nights are pretty cool with windows opened. No lift, it was heavy to bring my heavy luggage up by myself. Not enough power points, only one for two pax n at least four gadgets!

Review 112:Good location, just beside museum. Quaint hotel with medieval ambience n feel. Staff are dressed in traditional outfit. Spacious room. Breakfast has good selection of cheese, ham, sausages, yoghurt, cereals. But I kind of missed the hot stuff like omelets, congee.

Review 113:The canopy bed is nice and comfortable, but not big enough for a tiny child of age 9 to stay free of charge using the existing bed.

Review 114:A very good location for a nice evening walk in Sighişoara. Several restaurants nearby, one exactly next door.

Review 115:For a 4 stars hotel it could have a cleaner bathroom-the shower was leaking- could invest in personalized bedsheets, towels and toileteries. Definitely give up to the soap dispensers in the bathroom, they do not fit the hotels' atmosphere. Also a newer TV is needed -not necesarily a bad impression, it's rather a suggestion.

Review 116:Good position, excellent breakfast, nice, big room. Polite and useful staff, they advised regarding the parking.

Review 117:everything is great

Review 118:Everything was just great - very nice personnel, great location, nice and clean room, good and diverse breakfast - great value for the money they change.

Review 119:There is no real parking. Some cars had parked in the alley by the entrance but there are parking by the main street but you have to pay the parking guy that appears randomly. Ask at the desk for help.

Review 120:Great staff and great breakfast. The room itself had a awesome bed and everything was clean and nice. The hotel is situated right at the bottom of the entrence to the medieval part of Sighisoara.

Review 121:No wireless connection in de luxe rooms, fairly poor signal in the standard ones

Review 122:Pretty comfy overall, although the so-called de luxe rooms (almost double the standard ones) had no wireless connection and the bathroom only had a shower, as opposed to the bathtub in the standard one. Friendly staff and nice atmosphere overall.

Review 123:We did not got the rooms we reserved (without extra beds for the children), at the Hotel we were told that Booking sent the order for 2 double rooms. Also the Hotel received the order 4 days before we came while we odered few weeks before.

Review 124:The Hotel is nice, clean and in a good location

Review 125:The breakfast was very good. All the rooms have canopy beds. Very romantic. The personnel was very nice, and the breakfast outstanding. Located In the middle of the center in the lower city.

Review 126:The extra bed for the kids was poor, the bathroom was huge yet the shower itself was tiny... No ac, but thankfully we had good weather.

Review 127:Good location, large and comfortable room (we had the large suite), very nice breakfast.

Review 128:The apartment was beautifully decorated, with antique wall-paintings. Room and bathroom were spotless. Breakfast was indeed special, with lots of local and bio products, don't miss the marmalade and the apple juice. We had a lovely stay!
