    Housed in a renovated 1903 building of 1000 sq.m.. The bistro on the 6th floor has excellent Old Town views. Really worth visiting for the building itself, books offer not amazing.

    I think it is one of the cutest book stores I’ve seen so far. On top floor there is a cafe where you can enjoy a glass of wine or a cup of herbal tea. I would surely visit this place again next time.

    1 of the most beautiful, well stocked bookshop I have seen so far. An absolute must for any literary traveler & the upper level has a plant filled bistro. The closest Metro stop: Universitate

    I like the place, but maybe if they would have more books you would have a deeper feeling that you are in a bookstore! It is worth going in and enjoy the light!

    Top floor bistro with delicious selection of lemonades. I had the ginger one and it was perfect. There are machines to help you search the titles, quite helpful. I was very wowed by the place!

    Stunning bookstore in the centrum of Bucharest. Don't miss a chance to drink coffee or cocktail on the last floor.

    The architectural design and the overall setting make you feel good, but the book selection could have been richer.

    The most beautiful book store in Bucharest. The space is so well designed that it's just worth checking it out.

    Amazing book store and cafe in the old town. Sells lots of different things. Great interior, unfortunately no reliable Wi-Fi. On the expensive side.

    Wow! Looks more like a mansion. Great book selection, lots of trinkets as well. I like how carturesti sells romanian made products.

    Books appear to be secondary in the whole ensemble while the handrails dominate the building of one's impression (you can't go past that detail). Can only say I'm happy such hospital exists.

    One of the best gift shops in town. For books you'll better go on amazon. :-)

    If you're in the old town well worth a visit for the architecture alone.

    The library is beautiful and well organised, but a bit pricy. It's worth a visit for sure.

    Great urban destination. However: overpriced bistro and a rather dissapointing supply of books.
