I am often asked by friends, family and clients why I choose to stay in a hotel when travelling to Saint Petersburg. There are plenty of arguments I could list in favour of hotels but in this post I will focus on three key reasons.
1. Location, Location, Location
Saint Petersburg is a city of immense beauty and history, and as such it can be difficult to know where to start when planning a visit. Hotel locations are therefore key, as they can often be in the heart of the city and offer great access to all the main attractions. Compare this to staying in a private apartment, which may be located in a quieter area outside of the city centre, and you can see why a centrally located hotel is a better option.
2. Facilities
When travelling as a family or in a group, it is important to have access to facilities that make your stay comfortable and enjoyable. Hotels offer guests a wide range of facilities, such as swimming pools, gyms, restaurants and bars, while private apartments usually do not. This means that you can relax and enjoy your stay without having to worry about finding somewhere to eat or exercise.
3. Services
One of the main advantages of staying in a hotel is the wealth of services that they offer. From concierge services that can help with organising your visit, to room service and laundry facilities, hotels provide everything you need in one place. This can be really useful when travelling with young children or elderly relatives, as it eliminates the need to organise separate services yourself.
4. Price
Finally, it is worth mentioning the price difference between hotels and private apartments. Generally speaking, hotels are more expensive as they offer a range of services and facilities, whereas private apartments usually do not. This means that if you are looking for a more affordable option, private apartments may be a better choice, but if you want to maximise your comfort and convenience, then hotels are the way to go.
