The May holidays are a great opportunity to break away from the usual rhythm and take a short but eventful trip. St. Petersburg is especially beautiful in the spring: the city is transformed, filled with light, greenery and anticipation of the warm months. For those who want to spend the May holidays in an interesting and tasteful way, we have prepared a short guide.
It is worth starting with the right choice of accommodation. The ideal option for accommodation in the city center is the Express Sadovaya Hotel, located in an 18th-century building. It combines a historical atmosphere and modern amenities. You will be within walking distance of the main attractions, theaters, embankments and cozy cafes.
On May 1, the season opens in the Nikolskie Ryady space in the hotel courtyard - a popular location for relaxation, walks and street events. Summer verandas, gastronomic zones, music, a market and cultural activities await you. Just a few steps - and you are in the heart of the city event. In addition, on the same day, the golf club opens, where you can have a great time outdoors. This is a great idea for a couple, family or a group of friends. Playing outdoors, greenery all around, the opportunity to relax actively - all this helps to feel the spring energy of the city.
In your free time, visit the Yusupov Garden, take a walk along the canals, go to an evening performance at the Mariinsky Theater or climb the colonnade of St. Isaac's Cathedral. St. Petersburg in May is a light breeze, lots of sun and inspiration at every step.
Finish the day in the lobby bar of the Express Sadovaya Hotel - with a glass of wine or a cup of aromatic coffee. Here, every evening can be made special. Spend the May holidays in St. Petersburg in comfort and with impressions that will stay with you for a long time.
