Hotel Grand Hotel Europe Saint Petersburg Description
The Grand Hotel Europe is centrally situated in the middle of St-Petersburg on Nevsky Prospect. The hotel dates from 1824 and was reopened after an extensive refurbishment in 1991. It became the first 5 star hotel which was accepted as a member of Leading Hotels of the World. The hotel offer up to date business and leisure amenities with the charm and architecture of a bygone age. Throughout its long history the Grand Hotel Europe has been a focal point for St-Petersburg society. Since the re-opening it has once again played host to diplomats, heads of State, Royalty, Artists and International celebrities. HISTORY Construction of the buildings now housing the hotel, situated in the very middle of St. Petersburg on Nevsky Prospekt and Mikhailovskaya Ulitsa, began in the 1820s. The first hotel on this site, known as the Cuolon, appeared in 1830 and was then integrated with neighbouring houses near Carlo Rossi, near the neoclassical fa ƒ ade which crossed the existing buildings. This united structure evolved into the Hotel de l'Europe, the dream child of the Evropeyskaya Hotel Company, which opened its doors in January of 1875. At the turn of the century the Swedish-Russian architect, Fyodor Lidval redesigned much of the hotel's interior, adding the striking Art Nouveau features which still exist today. The hotel reinvented itself numerous times through the First World War and post revolutionary periods as a hospital, orphanage and center of bureaucratic operations. Fortunately, following extensive and painstaking renovation between 1989 and December 1991, the building re-opened as the Grand Hotel Europe. Great care was taken to preserve the hotel's distinct architecture, both the interior of the hotel with its turn-of-the-century art nouveau d ƒ cor and the splendid neoclassical fa ƒ ade were restored to their former glory. The building itself has been classified as a national and cultural landmark and is to be preserved as a historical monument.
