If, twenty years ago, you could have predicted that Moscow would today be the most expensive city in the world — well, you’d probably be staying at the Ritz-Carlton, on Tverskaya Street, with views over Red Square. Here caviar and champagne don’t literally flow from the bathroom taps, but maybe they’re working on it — aside from that, pretty much every luxury you can conceive is at its apex here.

The theme, to our eye, is basically “party like it’s 1916” — here the Ritz-Carlton’s taste for the elegance of days gone by manifests itself in cherrywood, rich textiles, and Russian Empire furniture, with a Vatican’s worth of marble in the bathrooms. Some rooms overlook the atrium, which is pleasant, but the better ones have views of the Kremlin and the Moscow rooftops from eleven stories up.

Here, perhaps more than anywhere else, luxury is about exclusivity. The hotel’s Jeroboam restaurant is a tough table to score, and if you weren’t a guest you might not fancy your chances at getting into O2, the rooftop sushi lounge. But for the height of exclusivity, there’s the Ritz-Carlton suite, complete with a “security room,” with its own power supply and communication system; what you get up to in there with the champagne and caviar, nobody needs to know.

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.
