Rooms description

The complete renovation of the Grand Hotel Europe between 1989 and 1991 returned the hotel's rooms and suites to a level of gracious elegance and luxurious comfort that St. Petersburg had not seen since the era of the Tsars. At that time the Grand Hotel, then known as the Hotel de l'Europe, was one of the premier hotels in the world, and it was with that proud heritage in mind that the renovation was so carefully administered. Today the hotel offers 301 accommodations of truly exceptional quality, replete with handsome period furnishings, tasteful decor, and a generous sense of space and ease.

Standard and Superior Classic Rooms
One unique benefit of the hotel's restoration is that even the Grand Hotel Europe's standard classic rooms vary in size (from 16 to 29 square meters) and in layout. Each of the rooms comprises an entrance way, a bedroom with seating area, and a bathroom. Of these, 99 are equipped with twin beds, 49 with doubles, and 64 with Grand Lits with Swedish duvets and coverlets in clean pastel hues. Moreover, each room is fully equipped with a mini-bar, a hairdryer, a television with satellite reception and a movie channel, a telephone with international direct dial facility and voice mail, a writing desk, and comfortable armchairs. For additional comfort, the tiled floor of each bathroom is heated. Plus, you'll find that all rooms are equipped with safes, air conditioning and fax modem lines.

Junior & Executive Suites
The junior and executive suites of the Grand Hotel Europe vary considerably in size and layout, but all share the historic features that were carefully restored during the hotel's renovation. The hotel's 24 junior suites range in size from 37 to 45 square meters; 3 are furnished with twin beds, and the remaining 21 are furnished with double beds. The 5 executive suites, all of which are furnished with a double bed, range in size from 50 to 60 square meters. Antique furniture is used throughout, and the colour and style of the decor reflects in all of its aspects the elegance and dignity of turn-of-the-century Tsarist Russia. All of the suites comprise an entrance hall, a lounge, a bedroom and a bath; larger suites have in addition a guest washroom. All of the suites are of course equipped with satellite television and a movie channel, international direct dial telephones and voice mail, mini-bars, hairdryers, safes, air conditioning and fax modem lines.
