LUXURY HOTEL 10 ROOMS & 19 SUITES The Eliseev Palace Hotel is the only lodging in St. Petersburg providing accommodations in a czarist-era palace. Restored and modified by some of Russia's finest artistic talent, the hotel opened in May 2003 in time to celebrate the city's 300th anniversary. Since then, the Eliseev has quickly become the place of preference for the citys most prominent and wealthy guests. Its status as a club hotel ensures your privacy. Room interiors combine the latest advances of modern technology with the grandeur and charm of past centuries, and the dining is rated as the citys finest. Warm and courteous personnel welcome you, and wait on your every wish. The Eliseev is your palace in St. Petersburg. In this city built by Peter the Great on the Neva river, during the month of June, the sun never sets and the city celebrates with its 'White Nights Festival' -- a host of music and dance concerts. Catch a performance by leading Russian and international artists at the Stars of the White Nights Festival (mid-May to mid-July) at the Mariinsky Ballet and Opera Theater; experience world-class art at The Hermitage and The Russian Museums; and take a day trip to the Catherine Palace at Tsarskoe Selo, the former palace of Catherine the Great that rivals Versailles.
