St. Petersburgs Literary Luxury
THIS MONTH: St. Petersburg, Russia
WHERE? Suite 107 at the Grand Hotel Europe, Orient-Express luxury hotel in St. Petersburg, Russia.
WHAT? Sitting at the oversize writers desk in this Michel Jouannet-designed suite gives you a view of the action on Italianskaya and Mikhailovskaya streets.
WHY? This is where Dostoyevsky, looking out on the same scene a century and a half ago, worked on Crime and Punishment and The Brothers Karamazov.
The WOW factor: A marvellous stained-glass window and a live harpist create the perfect setting for an elegant buffet breakfast at LEurope. Later vodka samplings are offered outside (winter only) in the ice bar.
