The
famous Romanov Restaurant combines 19th
century style Russian cuisine, a modern
European level of service and a museum to
the Tzar and his family.
The
Romanov hall accommodates up to 80 on two
different levels. A beautifully decorated
stairway, the handrails covered with gold
mosaic, leads to the upper circle, The decor
is in light golden-beige tones showing aspects
of Royal life. On the ceiling there is an
oval cartouche with a group portrait of
Nicolas II and his family. The walls are
covered with panels draped in costly fabrics.
The classical portieres give a grandiose,
palace look to the hall. Corinthian columns
with gilt capitals "support" the palace
interior. The stylized monogram of Nicolas
II is present in many elements of decor,
utensils, services, napkins, cloths, etc
A huge mirror in a carved gilt frame extends
the space. The restored ivory coloured grand
piano by F.Mulhbach fits harmoniously into
the palatial interior. The whole hall is
decorated with heraldic symbols. The large
equestrian portrait of Nicolas II in the
foyer creates a regal atmosphere where the
luxury of the interior combines in harmony
with the practical content.
Everything
here inclines the guest to consider thoughtfully
the extraordinary Tzarist period of Russian
history.
