Grand hotel Europe (St
Petersburg) Nevsky Prospekt/Milkhailovskaya Ulitsa 1/7 191011 St Petersburg RUSSIA |
| Description | |
| The first five-star hotel in Russia, the Grand Hotel is far more than simply a superlative hostelry--it is, like only a few hotels around the world, an integral part of the history and the culture of its city and its nation. |
 |
| History | |
| Its roots date back to the 1820s, and for more than 150 years the Grand Hotel Europe has stood at the very center of the city's social, cultural, and commercial life. Completely renovated between 1989 and 1991, the hotel is today more vital, more magnificent, and more enchanting than ever before. | |
| Recreation | |
| The Health Club is equipped with the finest in cardiovascular exercise machines, weights, massage, Jacuzzi, sauna, tanning bed and more. |
 |
| Guest Rooms | |
| The complete renovation of the Grand Hotel Europe between 1989 and 1991 returned the hotel's rooms and suites to a level of gracious elegance and luxurious comfort that St. Petersburg had not seen since the era of the Tsars. At that time the Grand Hotel, then known as the Hotel de l'Europe, was one of the premier hotels in the world, and it was with that proud heritage in mind that the renovation was so carefully administered. The result is 301 accommodations of truly exceptional quality, replete with handsome period furnishings, tasteful decor, and a generous sense of space and ease. Guests may choose from among several different classes of rooms and suites. Our entire second floor is a non-smoking. |
 |
| Gastronomy | |
| Guests of the Grand Hotel Europe may
choose from no less than seven superlative bars and restaurants, ranging
from the airy charm of afternoon tea in the Mezzanine Café
to the exceptional grace and distinguished culinary artistry of the
Europe Restaurant. For late night drinks, there is no more captivating and convivial surround than the Lobby Bar, while at Sadko's, the meeting spot, the energy -- like the nightly live music -- reaches a slightly higher pitch. Rossi's, an informal spot possessed of a superb wine list, serves delicious Italian dishes all day long, and at Chopsticks those with a longing for Chinese can enjoy authentic Cantonese and Szechwan cuisine. Most recently, the hotel commemorated the grand re-opening of its historic Caviar Bar, an elegant, intimate spot in which to enjoy Russia's most renowned, exquisite fare. |
