Angleterre Hotel
Bolshaya Morskaya 39
Saint Petersburg, Russia
Style: Contemporary Classic
Atmosphere: Lively
193 Rooms
We don′t put much stock in the concept of star ratings for hotels; often it′s just an exercise in list-making, where some phenomenal hotels lose out to boring and predictable ones, for the crime of lacking a swimming pool.
It′s useful, though, for understanding the unique situation of the Angleterre Hotel. This is the older yet slightly less decadent four-star sister of the five-star Astoria next door; and while the rooms may be less opulent and the amenities list shorter, it′s got every bit as much personality as its famed sibling.
The Angleterre benefits from the same absolutely central location, on St. Isaac′s square, and is just as close to the cathedral and the Hermitage museum. Where it differs is in the rooms, which are ever so slightly smaller than their siblings next door. The décor depends less heavily on antique furnishings and historical artifacts, and more on the keen eye of decorator Olga Polizzi, the stylish sister (this time we mean it literally) of the proprietor, Rocco Forte.
As for services, the Angleterre is hardly lacking, especially considering that the amenities of the Astoria are available and at guests′ disposal. Unique to the Angleterre is the English-style tea service, as well as the Borsalino Brasserie. There′s a combination nightclub and casino too—and if you strike it rich, head next door to Davidov′s restaurant for generous helpings of the finest caviars and vodkas.
Visa Information for Russia
Most travelers to Russia need to obtain a Visa from their local Russian Consulate prior to departure. Applying for a Tourist Visa is easier and cheaper than applying for a Business Visa. This can be a frustrating process so allow at least 10 days prior to departure to apply.
The process can only start after you make a Hotel Reservation. You will need a Certificate/Voucher from the hotel where you have a confirmed reservation in hand before you can go to the Consulate to apply for a visa. This Certificate/Voucher will be faxed or emailed to you by the hotel.
As soon as you have your Confirmation from TabletHotels.com, please contact customer service. We will assist you in obtaining the Certificate/Voucher from the hotel for your visa application.
