Helvetia Hotel  

In the heart of St. Petersburg, this 4-star hotel sits a short walk from Nevsky Prospect and the Russian State Museum of the Arctic and Antarctic. Major sights like the Fabergé Museum, Vosstaniya Square and Fontanka River are all within easy walking distance; Pulkovo Airport is about 23 km away.

Housed in an early‑19th‑century building (built 1828 by Swiss architect Augusto Lange), the property mixes St. Petersburg style with European elegance and Swiss cosiness. The 80 air‑conditioned rooms feature minibars, flat‑screen TVs, desks and safes, plus coffee/tea makers and private bathrooms with deep soaking tubs — a historic stay with a modern kick.

24‑hour reception and a 24‑hour pub keep things buzzing. Enjoy a terrace and garden, concierge services, luggage room and laundry, plus complimentary wired and wireless internet throughout — perfect for city explorers who like staying connected.

A 24‑hour business center, express check‑out and daily lobby newspapers make work easy. There’s about 65 m² (699 sq ft) of conference and meeting space, and a roundtrip airport shuttle is available for a surcharge. Complimentary wired and wireless high‑speed internet included.

Two on‑site restaurants include Marius, serving Modern European cuisine, plus a bar/lounge and 24‑hour room service. Buffet breakfast is offered daily from 7:00–10:30 for a fee — great fuel before hitting Nevsky.
