Renovation progress at the Grand Hotel Europe, St. Petersburg
120 guest rooms are now available at the Grand Hotel Europe in St. Petersburg – a month later than the originally planned date – following completion of the first stage of renovation of this Orient Express property. The interior design has been led by the French designer Michel Jouannet who has worked on high-profile restoration projects at other Orient Express hotels including the Cipriani Hotel in Venice, Ritz Hotel in Madrid, Copacabana Palace Hotel in Rio-de-Janeiro.
