Hello dear traveler!!

We are glad to welcome you in the newest hostel in the wonderful medieval town of Sibiu in the heart of Romania! The hostel is situated in a quiet area of Sibiu only 6 minutes walk from the train & bus station and just 15 minutes walk to the ancient centre, with all the main tourist attractions! 
Sibiu Travelers Hostel/Villa Teilor was opened in 2008 and received a 2 star qualification from the Romanian Department of Tourism. The founder has a 20 years experience of providing housing to all kinds of groups, so you may expect great comfort and service. 



The wishes & expectations of the hostel traveler were the main guidance in the design of the hostel, which resulted in our fair & no-nonsense approach: giving shelter in most comfortable, friendly way and making you feel welcome & at home, giving you a nice breakfast and providing you a lot of free services for a real low price! 

By the way: teilor means lime, linden tree. Ever had a look on the Internet or in an encyclopedia what is said about housing in relation to linden tree ? 
Besides the fact Romanians use linden blossoms to make a healthy tea with relaxation & healing effects, the lime tree has a very positive meaning in general in history as a protective force against evil powers, but also as a romantic symbol in the love between the sexes! 

Also in literature and music it always had a prominent place.

 

The famous Romanian poet Mihai Eminescu wrote in his poem 
Mai am un singur dor (One Wish Alone Have I): 
Patrunza talanga While softly rings
Al serii rece vânt, The wind its trembling chime
Deasupra-mi teiul sfânt And over me the lime
Sa-si scuture creanga. Its blossom flings.

(translation: C.M.Popescu)

The Moldovan music group 
O-Zone
had the hit 
Dragostea Din Tei
(Love From Linden Trees)
in 2004.

And why we tell you this? Sibiu Travelers Hostel is situated in Strada Teilor and almost directly in front of our hostel stands a 'teilor' tree!!

Observation:
Last week when I was visiting my mother at her assisted living at Bel Air home for seniors, we spent most of the afternoon looking through picture albums while she reminisced about the particular trip and I recorded her. One album was devoted to a month long trip my parents took through Romania. My parents were always the frugal travelers staying at hostels rather than at hotels. When they stayed at a B&B they considered it splurging! Even though they were in their mid sixties when they traveled through Albania, hostels were where they would stay. When they were in Sibiu, sure enough they stayed at the Sibiu Travelers Hostel. I looked at pictures of steep staircases that separate the Lower Medieval Town with its colorfully painted small houses from the Upper Town, the wide-open expanse of Piata Mare square which has been Sibiu’s center since the 15th Century. My parents love visitng European religius landmarks. Sibiu has several including the Catholic Basilica, a historic landmark with a stunning interior. Likewise there were a number of pics of the Orthodox Cathedral with its colorful and quite grand murals and frescoes covering the walls. She also had fantastic views of Sibiu taken from the Council Tower which, according to my mother, dates back to the late 1500s and sits in the passageway between the Piata Mare (Big Square) and Piata Mica (Small Square). I felt like I was listening to a professional travelogue. My mother was an art history teacher for years which is probably one reason she was so interested in traveling extensively around the world. It was a delightful afternoon. Whenever I listen to my parents' adventures, I am thankful they took so many pictures and appreciate how rich a live they have lived.

Sibiu & Around

Did you know that: the world's first homeopathic laboratory was opened by Samuel von Hahnemann in Sibiu in 1797 * Sibiu is home to the first hospital in Romania in 1292 * The first pharmacy was founded in Sibiu in 1494 * The Brukenthal Museum in Sibiu, which was opened in 1817 is the oldest museum in Romania * The printing of the very first book in Romanian language took place in Sibiu in 1544 *

This page is meant to give you just some brief idea of all interesting things to explore in and around Sibiu. Of course our staff is always ready to answer all your questions and to help you to make a nice schedule for the day!

Some practical things

The best way of transport in Sibiu is walking, but if you want to save time you can use a taxi (relatively cheap) or the well functioning very cheap public transport. In general most buses & trams have frequent schedules.
Two sorts of tickets exist: bilet transport (regular one-way bus ticket) and bilet transport valabil 1 zi (ticket valuable a full day on all local lines).
For trips outside Sibiu you can use the extended network of bus & minibus routes. Also the train is a good option, not very fast but reliable in general.
Bicycles can be rent at Rent-A-Bike (website under construction) via tel. (+4)0740157944 (English, German, Hungarian & Romanian spoken)or by email. 

Bicycles are delivered and picked up at the hostel. Great service!

Something about Transylvanian history


In the good old times of the 12th and 13th century the area of Transylvania was repeatedly terrorized by Tartars & Turks to invade Europe in an attempt to extend their influence and territory. The Hungarian ruler at that time tried to persuade people to descend on the area by promising a lot of benefits. In return the new residents would have the obligation to defend the land. This resulted in the settlement of the Saxons, who founded seven towns, among them Sibiu (Hermannstadt), Brasov (Kronstadt) and Sighisoara (Schässburg), giving Transylvania its German name Siebenbürgen. The heart of these towns included churches with fortifications. A lot of these defending constructions & fortified churches nowadays are on the UNESCO World Heritage List.

 

Until World War One Transylvania has been largely associated with Hungary, except for the period it was a part of the Ottoman Empire and had a semi independent state recognizing Turkish suzerainty. After WW1 Transylvania was finally united with Romania. This unification has never been fully accepted by Hungary, which reoccupied the territory from 1940 to 1944. After WWW2 Transylvania came back under Romanian control. Through the history of Romania the territory of Transylvania was and is in some way strongly connected with national identity and sentiments as clearly demonstrated on the photos showing a mass demonstration and people publicly kneeling and praying, in a desperate attempt to undo the situation after Hungary has appropriated the region again in WW2.

Sibiu highlights


 

It is not difficult to make any program for visiting the town, there are simply too many interesting things to see and explore!

Starting your walk from the square in front of the train station, just follow Strada General Magheru and you will pass Ursuline Church (15th century, founded by Dominican monks and a beautiful baroque interior). Keep right and take Strada Ivram Iancu, one of the oldest streets in Sibiu formerly inhabited by wealthy guildsmen. Before you enter Piata Mare bring a visit to Strada Selarilor (parallel to Magheru Street) and feel yourself suddenly in an alchemic medieval surrounding with Franciscan Church as the main building (impressive baroque elements in the altars).

On Piata Mare you will see the former Council Tower (1588), the Roman Catholic Cathedral (built between 1726 and 1733) and the famous Brukenthal Museum founded in 1817 and situated in the baroque palace of Baron Samuel Brukenthal (1721-1803). The museum contains paintings of the great masters as well as excellent archeological, folk-art and silverware collections. In Lonely Planet described as the oldest and likely finest art gallery in Romania!

Continue your way on Piata Mica and look around at the variety of medieval houses in many pastel colors. Also the Pharmaceutical Museum and the Franz Binder Museum of World Ethnology (including a real Egyptian mummy!) can be visited on this square.

Before descending the stairway at the east side and ending up in a maze of narrow, picturesque cobblestone streets, do not forget to walk over Iron Bridge (1859), also called Bridge of Liars, referring to the tricky merchants who did their trade on this place in earlier times and all the lovers who promised "eternal" love to each other! Very nearby you will find the Evangelical Church (built 1300-1520) on Piata Huet.
Piquant detail: the son of Vlad Tepes ("Dracula"), better known as Prince Mihnea the Bad was murdered on the square in front of the church and his tomb is in a closed section behind the organ.

A little further on southwestwards you can see the lovely former Primaria Municipiului (1470) and now the City History Museum at the beginning of Strada Mitropoliei, but without any doubt the street’s beauty is the Orthodox Cathedral from 1906. The basic architectonic plan was the Hagia Sofia in Istanbul!

 

Especially recommended: Strada Cetatii with its renovated parts of the ancient city walls and defending towers, including the so called Haller Bastion with another piquant detail: the irregular holes in the wall were originally quickly improvised wall openings to get rid of dead bodies during the period that Sibiu was ravaged by the pestilence. In the same street you will find the nicely restored Thalia Hall (base of the Philharmonic Orchestra), the National History Museum and the Museum of Natural Sciences with its valuable exhibits. Do not forget to visit the beautiful and friendly Sub Arini Park with its richness of roses and young couples walking hand in hand!

And least but not last and highly recommended: the fabulous open air ethnographic Astra Folk Art Museum in Dumbrava Forest exposing a great quantity and variety of authentic rural buildings, farms, mills, churches and houses. Under good weather conditions it is easy to pass the day in this wonderful museum, eventually combined with a visit to the nearby zoo.

Around Sibiu

 
 

Avrig, about 26 km. east from Sibiu and famous for its weavers, furriers, tanners, wood cutters and glass blowers. Few local museums with very unique exhibits and the summer residence of Baron von Brukenthal (former governor of Transylvania) remarkable for its terraced park in Viennese style. And for the admirers of nature: in the mountain area south of the town is a 14 km. long road along the river through a beautiful valley.

Cisnadie & Cisnadioara, these two picturesque, friendly rural villages are only a few kilometers south of Sibiu. An impressing fortified church (1349) in Cisnadie in combination with a real interesting guided tour. Cozy centre to walk around.
In Cisnadioara lots of characteristically Saxon buildings and the ruins of a fortress upon the hill, giving a fine overview of the whole area.

Rasinari, charming, wealthy shepherd village 4 km. west of Cisnadie, two small rivers flowing through, churches and an impressive mausoleum of Metropolitan Bishop A. Saguna.

Paltinis, touristic (ski) resort situated 32 km. south-west from Sibiu. The highest (1440 meter) and the oldest resort in Romania. Breathtaking sightseeing, fresh air and snow six months per year!

Cristian 15 km. west of Sibiu the 14th century Saxon town, grandiose fortified church in the centre (possible to climb the tower to view the landscape) and a charming local village museum.

Marginimea Sibiului, which means "Borders of Sibiu", is a collection of villages in the neighborhood of Sibiu and can be described as the heart and soul of Transylvania where traditional craftsmanship is still daily practice. Woodwork, carving, weaving, painting icons on glass and colouring eggs and farmers tilling the land by horse and plough, it is all there!

Orlat, 14th century village and nearby the charming, sleepy small town Gura Ralui. In Sibiel 5 km. west of Orlat is the Zosim Oancea Icons Museum with more then 700 pieces and one of Romania’s best in his sort, very well worth visiting! 6 km. north we come through Saliste, another place full of local folklore, have a look at the interior and exterior fresco's in Grui Church (1742). Just outside the town in Poiana Soarelui visits the monumental wooden sculptures. Gales, 2km. west of Saliste has a small ethnographic & art museum and nearby is situated Poiana Sibiului, famous for its marvelous hand colored eggs. On the way into the direction of Sebes, you will come through Miercurea Sibiului, since the 12th century inhabited by the Transylvanian Saxons with a very picturesque church on the hill and a little further on its robust fortified church.

And in case you need some relaxation after all these cultural and historic activities & impressions: take a dive into one of the lakes of the most popular summer resort in the area Ocna Sibiului, 20 km. northwest of the town.

Highly recommended daytrips

 
 

During your stay in Sibiu it is a great idea to take advantage of the fact that you are relatively close to other "pearls" of Transylvania, which can be perfect destinations for a daytrip!

Cilnic/Calnic, about 12 km. before you reach Sebes turning left, preserves one of the most remarkable and fully restored Saxon fortresses in the area. Among others the complex contains a chapel, with fresco fragments from the beginning of the 16th century and decorated panels painted in Renaissance style dated 1733. Very authentic medieval atmosphere, some people say "romantic" too!

Sebes (Muhlbach), situated 56 km west of Sibiu is one of the original Siebenbürgen towns. It contains an impressive Citadel (14th-15th century) preserved in its historic origin, Student's Tower (14th century) and Princely House (16th century) served as home residence to Transylvanian princes. Sebes is also a friendly small town with typical Transylvanian houses (19th-20th century) all over the place and pleasant for just some walking around and having a coffee.

 
 

Alba Iulia 72 km. northwest from Sibiu has a special place in the national history because it was there that in 1599 as well as on the first of December1918 the union of Transylvania with Romania was proclaimed. It contains a dreamy fairy tale Citadel and fortress(excellently renovated recently) and its most beautiful part is the impressive Orthodox Cathedral (1921-22) and the peaceful gardens around it built on the old site of the citadel guardhouse for the coronation of King Ferdinand I and Queen Marie in 1922.

Sighisoara. Any visit to Romania cannot take place without having seen Sighisoara! Not only because the whole town including the environment is protected heritage by UNESCO, but also because it will steal the heart of every visitor due to the splendid hilly countryside surroundings and the medieval citadel which makes you feel going back in time and space, more then in every other place in Transylvania. And of course: this is the place of birth of "Dracula" Vlad Tepes!

Do not forget to visit the famous nearby situated fortified church complex of Biertan. During your drive you come through Medias, a good place to make a stop (fortress, Evangelic Church).

By way of conclusion

Sibiu Travelers Hostel pursuits to be just some more then a regular hostel, not only giving shelter and good services for a nice price.

We also try to make people enthusiast for the richness of Romanian culture, history, architecture, traditions and arts in general, emphasizing the rareness of the highly preindustrial character of the area. Therefore we have given much attention to the accessibility & accuracy of the information and an attractive design of this website!

Also we strive for the creation of a network of hostels, pensions, simple hotels, touristic organizations and individuals with similar historical & cultural aims, finally resulting in some kind of national culture quality label.

Nice clean hostel with good beds, located walkable distance from city center (10 / 15 mins). Staff was nice, owner pleasant and helpful. Had a good time there! The only things off putting was the sheer abundance of signs, ranging from quite helpful (explaining the elaborate three towel system) to borderline ridiculous (indicating the location of the extension cord right next to it) to almost guilt tripping (please don't shower too long).. Same goes for the list with unnecessary rules.

We were the only people staying in the hostel the night we were there, so didn't get an impression of the atmosphere, but facilities were clean and it's a good location for the bus and train station (less than 5 mins walk), and 10-15 mins walk from the old town.

On TripAdviser: "Great Hostel", 5* 
The hostel is 5 minutes walk from the train and bus stations in a quite neighborhood. It is quite easy to find. The town centre is 10 minutes walk away and easy to find with the map that Hans (the owner) gave me. The dorms sleep 8 but I never noticed that and got a great nights sleep each of the 3 nights I was there. The bunks are very comfortable and of good quality. The kitchen area and the bathroom are very clean and well maintained like the rest of the hostel. There is also wifi and 2 PC's for guests use.

I have stayed here for four nights and had a good time. The rooms and bathrooms are clean and the owner and his staff are very friendly. The hostel is just 5 minutes walking from the busstation. It's close to the centre but far enough from the centre to have a quiet night. I can certainly recommend this hostel to everyone. Hans, thanks for the great stay at Villa Teilor.

The first thing remembering Sibiu is Hans the owner. We had a very special contact.There is a nice atmosphere. Even when it is raining and I was waiting for abut 5 hours, because I was planning to cycle. Hans did not have that power to change the wheather. So when you are planning to go to Sibiu and you want to have the same experience I had, the only thing to do is to go to Travelers Hostel by yourself. Have a nice time overthere and say hello to Hans greetings from bert...

The owner was really friendly and helpful! Located near to the train station, which let me drop my luggage quickly, and only around 10 minutes walk to the old town. Bedrooms are clean and spacious, and bathrooms are really clean, too.
Thanks so much for your fantastic 97% rating!

Dear Hans! (from Shirley!)
Is so nice here. I will leave at around 12:00.
So I want to go to the museum before I leave.
My bag is so heavy. Can I check out and take
my bag after my visit? I will back. Have a nice day.

The hostel is located in a very easy accessible place from both the train ans bus stations, peaceful zone and still easily to arrive in downtown even by walk or by bus. But the real advantage of this place is that you are not a guest there but you are at home here with the placement of the facilities, the cozy little garden and all.
Thanks so much for this super rating!!!

On TripAdviser:“Very nice and friendly place”, 4*
This small hostel is a nice and clean place to stay. The beds are realy comfy, there is wifi, nice small garden, kitchen with all you need. The rooms are shared but we didn´t mind. We went for a dinner to the city centre and afterwards we enjoyed the drink on the villa teilor garden. Not far from the hostel you can find nonstop shop. I advise this hostel.
