Marmorosch Blank Bank Palace, Romanian Revival bank palace in Bucharest, Romania.
The Marmorosch Blank Bank Palace is a bank building in Romanian Revival style in Bucharest with intricately designed facades, grand courtyards, and fine architectural details from the early 20th century. The spaces show carefully crafted ornaments and structural elements that reflect the craftsmanship of that era.
The building was constructed between 1915 and 1923 by architect Petre Antonescu and served as the headquarters of Marmorosch Bank. After nationalization in 1949, its use changed and it was later converted into a luxury hotel.
The building shows Romanian Revival features with Byzantine and Gothic elements adapted to local building traditions. This mixture shapes the appearance of the courtyard and facades that visitors can still see today.
The building is located in central Bucharest and is easy to find by looking for its architectural features. Its conversion to a hotel means visitors can view public areas such as restaurants and meeting spaces.
The original bank vault of the building was transformed into a specialized bar where guests can enjoy cocktails surrounded by original banking architecture from the early 1900s. This conversion combines the financial history of the place with modern entertainment in an unexpected way.
