Kempinski opens in St Petersburg

15 Feb 2006 by business traveller

Luxury German hotel group Kempinski has found a replacement property for the hotel it used to manage in St Petersburg, Russia.

The five-star European chain once managed the Grand Hotel Europe, now an Orient-Express Hotel, and now has the new 183-room Kempinski Moika. The hotel is located on the Moika River, opposite the famous Hermitage Museum and close to other major sites. Nevsky Prospect, the city's main commercial street, is a two-minute walk away.

The Kempinski is constructed around a 19th century building dating back to 1852. Only the facade has been retained; the rest of the building is totally new. Introductory room rates are being offered (subject to availability) when the hotel opens next week (Wednesday, February 22), lasting until the end of March.

Business rooms (20 square metres in size) are on offer for the promotional price of Euros 132 as against the usual price of Euros 235. Superior rooms (26 square metres) will cost Euros 150 (Euros 275 normally) while Deluxe rooms (30 square metres) are priced at Euros 204 (Euros 320). Atrium suites (42 square metres) cost either Euros 291 or Euros 312 (Euros 455 to 485 usually).
