I avoid big hotel chains and really enjoyed staying in this small European-style hotel. The hotel is furnished with old furniture, and the rooms are pleasantly decorated. The front desk staff were most helpful and spoke English as well as French and several other languages. The location is great for walking to the Hermitage, the Church on Spilled Blood, St,... More

The hotel is a small boutique hotel which occupies 2 floors of a building very close to Nevsky Prospekt. Walking distance from most sights.

Wonderful breakfast (including fresh pancakes), fabulous decor, good service (hotel staff spoke English and were... More

I would really recommend this hotel. It is very central and the staff are very very helpful. However at weekend, if you are in a room at the front, it can be noisy in the street outside. Dont let that put you off. it is agreat place to stay.

The art on the doors is lovely and the rooms are very comfortable with excellent plumbing. Breakfast was sumptuous and they are always willing to make you a cup of tea. There... More

If you're looking for a little gem in Saint Petersburg, look no further. Located just off Nevskiy Prospect, this boutique hotel has all of the old world charm you would imagine existed in bygone years.
