Where to stay

Moscow is a city like no other: dynamic, complex and, at times, challenging. It's where Russia's traditional and modern cultures collide. It is by far the largest city in the country, double the size of St. Petersburg, and growing quickly as development is driven by its residents' increasing wealth. Aside from its world-famous sights, including St. Basil's Cathedral and the Bolshoi Theatre, the city's top hotels are among its most beautiful buildings. Thanks to the efficient metro, with some of the most attractive stations you're likely to see, visitors will also find that no matter what neighborhood they choose for their stay, it'll be easy to get around.
