The Best Hotels in Europe: 2019 Readers' Choice Awards
"St. Petersburg is steeped in old world charm, a gracefully-aging decadence of which Hotel Astoria is the truest embodiment. Having stood in its exact place on St. Isaac's Square since 1912, it's no act either—the hotel has retained its classic baroque facade and luxurious air throughout the highs and lows of the past century (though don't take that to say they've skimped on updating the interior or adding in all the mod-cons international travelers expect; quite the opposite). Every traveler to the city knows High Tea at the hotel is a must, but guests will be treated to the same iconic experience through every moment spent here—something worth staying the night for." - CNT Editors
