SUGGESTED ACCOMMODATION

HOTEL ASTORIA, ST PETERSBURG

The grandeur of the Astoria remains untouched, with marbled halls, crystal chandeliers, sweeping staircases, regal balconies, and impressive views over St. Petersburg.

Luxury HOTEL ASTORIA

A Century of Elegance

If ever there was a destination hotel, the Astoria – created during the reign of the Tsars and now in its 100th splendid year – epitomises it.

Just walking through the magnificent entrance lobby of Hotel Astoria gives you a sense of history. Rightly so; this Grand Duchess of world-class hotels was born in 1912 – during the reign of Tsar Nicholas II – and so far has survived the First World War and the immense upheaval of the 1918 revolution. The Astoria then lived through the Second World War and outlasted Stalin. Today it glides serenely through the era of post-Perestroika and the new Russian economy.

And the grandeur remains. Expect marbled halls and crystal chandeliers, sweeping staircases, regal balconies and impressive views over St Petersburg – the Astoria is next to St Isaac’s Square, opposite the cathedral and only a few minutes walk from the fabled Hermitage Museum. Putting you at the heart of Russia’s most vibrant city.
