Within a leisurely stroll from Nevsky Prospect is the historic building of the Helvetia Hotel, with origins dating back to the early 19th century. The hotel’s interiors successfully combine St. Petersburg’s harmonious style with the elegance of European design. An inseparable part of the façade of impressive buildings along Marata Street, the Helvetia’s wrought-iron gates open onto a spacious, picturesque courtyard. The outside of the hotel, as viewed from the courtyard, gives the impression of a miniature medieval European town, with noble lines and a cheerful atmosphere of comfort and calm. In late 2012, the Helvetia Hotel completed a major renovation project. Since Helvetia is housed in a nineteenth-century mansion protected as a national landmark, the reconstruction accurately preserved all the building’s historic architectural features. As a result, the hotel’s traditional elegance has been harmoniously enhanced by the latest technological solutions, and several new guest rooms have been added as well. Guests will be pleasantly surprised by the new furnishings with an accent on natural materials in beige and pearl-grey pastels. Native Russian cordiality, coupled with Swiss traditions of cozy hospitality, individual attention to every guest and international service standards, are the distinguishing features of the Helvetia Hotel. Guests who stay in this bit of Switzerland right in the heart of St. Petersburg so often comment that they find the hotel and its personal service utterly charming. The Moscow Railway Station is just around the corner, and four nearby metro stations give easy access to the city's three central underground lines.
