My boyfriend and I stayed in the private room. Our flight got in at 11:30pm and Vlad was there to pick us up, as arranged. The room was very clean and comfortable. The bathroom was spotless, and there was a little balcony/porch area attached to the room. Price was VERY reasonable. Location is not great for getting into Bucharest, but... More

I recently went to Bucharest with my boyfriend and his family for his brother's wedding. We stayed at Vila Gabriela for a total of 4 nights and were very impressed. The place is not fancy, but has a very "homey" feel to it. The rooms are spacious & clean and the beds are comfortable. There is a kitchen available for... More

I came with a large group, but I would feel comfortable staying by myself if I ever go to Romania again. It is spotless and comfortable. The hosts are wonderful. My stay couldn't have been better.

The practical aspects of the Vila Gabriela are great - very near airport but no airport noise/bustle, they can provide car rides so even our 4am flight was no problem, wonderful facility with a roomy outside patio to hang out in, a nice kitchen to make a late night cup of tea, and so much more. But, the best part... More

We've stayed in many hostels/hotels/homes in Romania and the Vila Gabriela is truly one of the best. The rooms and facilities are clean, the staff is professional, and the hosts - Vlad and Carmina - are so incredibly welcoming and helpful (we'd like to adopt them as our second parents). This is the perfect place to stay after arriving in... More

We were a family party of 15, and Vlad did an excellent job of keeping us organized, helped with the airport, walked us around the community and with his wife and staff provided us with clean, comfortable rooms. He couldn't control the crowing roosters, but that touch of Romania helped us feel we were in a different part of the... More

Me and my boyfriend stayed here last summer. It was nice that the man picked us up from the train station, however we were suprised that the hostel was so far away from the centre of bucharest. The part of town it was in, Otopeni was very residential, it only had one restaurant, however there were quite a few banks.... More

I stayed here last year in October on my way north to Moldavia. I can thoroughly recommend Vlad and Carmina as very good hosts. The Hostel is clean and cosy and holds a special kind of warm romanian atmosphere. I'll definitley stay here on my next trip if I can.

It's my second overnight stop and I'll definitly return every time I need a hostel in Bucharest! Vila Gabriela is a very clean, quiet and accomodating hostel and the hosts are great people, friendly and efficient. I had a very nice room, with TV and private bathroom. Vlad came twice at the airport to pick me because my plane had... More

We are repeat customers!! My wife and I spent a few weeks in the summer and a few weeks in the winter at Vila Gabriela and we had a blast. It is more like a family run bed and breakfast, although we found it throug a hostel website. Carmina and Vlad (the hosts) are very warm people, friendly and very... More
