The story of Brătescu Mansion
About us, what motivates us and our goal
About us, what motivates us and our goal
Much is said about Bran, many are true and many are stories, as is the legend of Dracula. Among the true and authentic ones is the story of the Brătescu Mansion, a fairytale place in Bran.
One of our guests associates the mansion with an idea of Master Constantin Brâncuşi: “Seeing far is one thing, going there is something else entirely”.
Our story started from the desire to build something different, something authentic in the spirit of the place, something that speaks about the Bran area, something capable of inspiring and making our guest come back.
The name is not accidental. A long time ago, Mr. Emil Brătescu, a professor of Romanian language and literature, used to welcome writer friends and poets of the times to dances (among them Ioan Groşan, Ioan Buduca, Radu Ţeposu, Cornel Nistorescu, Otilia Ţeposu, etc.). Here, literary, social, political, and cultural discussions, criticisms, and analyses were organized until midnight, washed down with selected wines. Mr. Brătescu’s house became an eternal place, remaining in everyone’s mind “Brătescu’s Mansion”. Today, the new building continues the story, offering guests the opportunity to experience unique moments.
Brătescu Mansion is an authentic Romanian manor, able to offer the tourist arriving in Bran a rich, unique experience, an experience that will make him want to come back.
Brătescu Mansion is a place where you will experience the atmosphere of a mansion, you will be able to taste selected wines and home-cooked meals, and you will sleep in carefully finished and furnished rooms, authentic Romanian mansion rooms.
We believe in things made from the heart, those that have the power to change or at least bring a glimmer of light. Brătescu Mansion offers you a friendly and relaxed atmosphere, offering you the setting and energy of a most comfortable stay. You are welcome both for a single night, on a business trip, as well as for a weekend or a romantic stay.
For us, there is only one wish that we have in relation to every person who steps on the threshold of our house: we want you to return to Brătescu Mansion. We believe that a comfortable room with an excellent breakfast, a friendly smile and the story of an authentic mansion are the keys to a perfect stay.
