Visit the Count
«Aristocratic St. Petersburg» — is an invitation to visit Count Shuvalov in his 19th-century mansion on Mokhovaya Street, located near the magnificent embankments of the Fontanka and Neva, St. Michael's Castle, the Russian Museum, and the Summer Garden. But beyond walks through the most beautiful places of the historical center, a thoughtfully curated and experience-rich holiday program awaits you, worthy of Count Shuvalov's guests.
Allow yourself not to rush anywhere and not to plan anything, take a pause and immerse yourself in the atmosphere of aristocratic Saint Petersburg.


HISTORIC Setting
You can stay in a classic room or choose one of the spacious historic suites-residences of Count Shuvalov and Countess Vorontsova-Dashkova, where the original historic decorative details of these halls have been preserved and vintage and antique interior items have been added, helping to immerse you in a light nostalgia for a bygone beautiful era.
Special Meeting
Your vacation will begin with a meeting at the airport or station and an individual executive-class transfer to the Shuvalov Mansion.
