National Hotel Category: Address: Mochovaya st., 15/1
Hotel description
The National Hotel was built in 1903 by the famous Russian architect Alexander Ivanov in a pompous eclectic style, which was very popular at the turn of the century. The construction cost nearly one million roubles, a huge sum of money at that time. Very soon the National Hotel became extremely popular among Russian businessmen for its luxury, restaurants and services: it was the only hotel in the city with elevators.
In 1991 the National Hotel was closed for renovation which took four years to complete. In May 1995, when it was opened, it looked just as it did in 1903 but in fact it was quite a different hotel in terms of equipment and services. Now it has a state-of-the-art kitchen, the most up-to-date fire-fighting equipment, a sophisticated security system. The personnel trained to the highest standards will make your stay at the hotel the most comfortable and pleasant.
