Description
The Hotel offers fantastic views of some of the main cultural hotspots of the city, being a moment's walk from the famous Hermitage museum, which is home to a collection of over 2 million works of Russian art and artefacts. The Palace Square and arguably the most well known street in Russia, Nevksy Prospekt, are within easy reach. Moika 22's canal side location away from the main road means that sleep won't be disturbed by the noise of the city centre.
The hotel opened in 2005, and offers understated luxury in a modern style behind its 19th century facade. Within the hotel itself one can become acquainted with the rich colours, impressive views and sumptuous cuisine that has made Russia so sought after in recent years. With a separate breakfast room, 2 restaurants and a bar (stocking some of the finest Russian vodkas of course!), guests will never tire of the variety of choices.
An impressive wellness centre has also been established offering treatments designed to relax you after a day of exploring and to get you ready for whatever the evening may bring, whether it is a visit to the world famous Russian ballet or simply enjoying a few drinks with blinis and caviar at the aptly named Bellevue Brasserie.
After an evening packed with adventure, retire to one of the luxuriously furnished rooms or suites, all of which offer panoramic views of golden cupolas and gilded palaces.

When to travel
The main tourist season is between June and August, when the weather is the warmest. Standout seasons to visit St Petersburg are late spring (May or June) and early autumn (September or October), when the city’s parks are filled with flowering trees or colourful leaves.
The deepest, darkest part of winter is undeniably cold but if you are prepared it can be an adventure. Furs and vodka keep people warm and snow-covered landscapes are picturesque. A solid snow pack covers the ground from November to March. The city gets fired up to ring in the New Year, when Muscovites emerge from their warm homes into the winter night for free concerts and fireworks.
