The hotel is in a great location for those who want to be close
to the center of the city. Nevskiy Prospect is two blocks away with everything from big internet cafes about five minutes walk

Hotel staff is helpful and courteous. Its restaurants are absolutely
class. There is a casino in the hotel which I didn't use mostly because I'd rather spend time in the city than in a casino. There is a lot of security in the hotel maybe because lots of rich people come to the casino.

Only pet peeve about the hotel is that they didn't offer any luggage assistance when I checked in and out. Too many security personnel, too few bell boys. I gave them feedback which they acted instantly. Sign of good management.

Overall though I was quite happy with the hotel and its location. The 24 hour coffee shops, restaurants, pubs, 24 hour supermarkets all are with a minute walk.

Hotel even has a Bentley to pick you up from the airport.. but
I didn't use it..
