28 December – 8 January
New Year in palatial apartments on the Neva
Six bedrooms, a kitchen for twelve, a sauna and jacuzzi, a grand piano in the living room — and fireworks straight from the window, with no crowds.
Why an apartment
Your own space for a large group
For 8–12 people a hotel means 4–6 rooms on different floors with a shared table only in the restaurant. Here it's one 350 m² apartment: six bedrooms, a dining room for twelve, a living room with a fireplace and a grand piano.
Gather everyone for dinner on 31 December, watch the fireworks from the window at 1 a.m., then retreat to your rooms — no lobby, no other guests, no breakfast schedule.
