Grand Hotel Europe, Saint Petersburg

The Nevsky Prospekt is home to some of the most beautiful sites in the world. The Kazan Cathedral, the elegant Stroganov Palace, dozens of 18th-century churches with varying degrees of extravagance - and the unsurpassed hotel wonder, the five-star Grand Hotel Europe.

Aptly named, this one-of-a-kind immersion in pure Russian luxury is in and of itself an architectural marvel. It holds its own amongst centuries-old cupolas and porticos, rising above the surrounding beauty in a vibrant display of glittering golden lights and too-perfect-to-be-true sculptures.
