You need to choose a good hotel with a good location if you are planning a trip to St. Petersburg. For most tourists it will be more convenient if the hotel is located in the city center, near Nevsky Prospekt or Palace Square. (You don’t expect to get a hotel near the beach, on the seashore, if you are traveling to St. Petersburg?)
Most likely you will arrive at Moskovsky Station. The length of Nevsky Prospekt from Moskovsky Station to Palace Square is almost 3 kilometers. Shall we go choose a hotel?
