The hotel is located on Franceza Street, another Old Town street now blessed with restaurants, bars. About half way along look out for the St. Dumitru’s Church: St Dumitru is the patron saint of Bucharest. Looking anything but its best is the “Hanul lui Manuc – Manuc Inn”, on the same street with Europa Royale Bucharest, the inn, built in 1808, remained operational as a hotel and restaurant. Part of the inn, the restaurant/bar, courtyard and some function rooms, was finally reopened.
Str. Lipscani, which is very close to the hotel, gets its name from the large number of traders who, in the 18th century, sold wares here brought from Leipzig, which at the time was one of the largest trading posts in Europe. As Str. Lipscani was the main commercial street in the Old Town, it over time lent its name to the whole area.
