Inn at Richiș Rooms

Room 1 – Simon Neman’s Room

Located on the ground floor with an entrance from the courtyard. This room is very spacious with a generously sized bathroom with a large walk in shower. This room is named after the Saxon gentlemen from Richis who started a wine school in what is now, The Inn at Richiș, after the phylloxera epidemic back in 1890 devastated most of the vineyards in the area. They taught the next generation how to graft onto healthy stock and schooled them in the area of pruning so this great industry was reborn and kept surviving. The picture to the right of the bed is the brother of Simon Neman’s, nickname “Lizar”. His wife’s photo is to the left of the bed and their son, dressed in a Hungarian military uniform from The Great War, is on the front wall near the Saxon sofa.

This spacious sized room is decorated with authentic period Saxon – Romanian furnishings, paintings, and handmade tapestries. The Saxon oversized bed with Luxury linens and oversized pillows, is the heart of the room. The room is decorated in soft rose and viridescent decor with wide pine wooden floors and traditional rugs. In order to preserve an atmosphere of peace and tranquility, the rooms are without televisions. There are books scattered throughout the room for your reading pleasure. The large windows add to this bright room allowing a soft morning light. Each window is adorned with full length drapes and sheers. Near the front windows sits a late eighteenth-century large viridescent Saxon sofa with a beautiful inlaid wooden coffee table and two burgundy velveteen stools. All rooms have Luxurious Monogrammed Bathrobes with Slippers, Luxurious Toiletries by Paul Mitchell, Lush Collection of Spa Towels – 100% Shirpur Cotton, Nespresso Coffee Machines, Hair Dryers and Magnified Lighted Makeup Mirrors.
