Saint Petersburg Hotels

Saint Petersburg is Russia's second largest city, with a population of 4.7 million perched at the eastern tip of of the Baltic Sea and the Neva River. The city was formerly known as Petrograd, and later Leningrad. When staying in Saint Petersburg, we recommend Tradition Hotel, Pushka Inn, Kempinski Hotel Moika 22, 3 Mosta, and Ermitage Hotel St Petersburg.

Fascinating city, crossed by a net of canals, like Venice ! Astonishing a night cruise on the river Neva. Antonio B.

If you're going to the Hermitage, be prepared to do some walking. I did not think a museum could be that big. Or that Catherine the Great owned that much stuff. Bob T.

If you plan on doing the Dostoevski/ Raskolnikov walk, or just plan on being down in the hay market, try not to be there after dark. The area can get fairly sketchy at night, especially if you're on foot. Rob B.More Saint Petersburg Tips  GeckoGo
