Our Surrounds

Situated at the corner of Mikhailovsky Street and Nevsky Prospekt, the Grand Hotel simply could not be better placed among St. Petersburg's cultural landmarks. Within walking distance, just up the grand boulevard of Nevsky Prospekt, are the Winter Palace and the Hermitage, as well as the imposing monuments of Winter Palace Square. Even the closer--in fact only a few steps away--is the celebrated Russian Museum (which occupies the stunning Mikhailovskaya Palace) and the soaring onion domes of the Church of the Spilt Blood: one of St. Petersburg's most stunning churches, as it occupies the very spot on which Tsar Alexander II was fatally wounded by terrorists on March 1, 1881. Also within mere footsteps are the St. Petersburg Philharmonic and the Maly Theatre, which along with the Mariinsky constitutes the foundation of St. Petersburg's famed performance arts community. Right across Nevsky Prospekt are the magnificent Cathedral of Our Lady of Kazan and the sprawling arcades of the Gostinyy Dvor Department Store.
