Weekend in St. Petersburg: 2-day walking route with a comfortable hotel

When planning a short vacation or a spontaneous weekend, many people choose St. Petersburg — a city where you can find architectural masterpieces, cozy coffee shops, atmospheric streets and a rich cultural heritage at every turn. To get the most out of just a couple of days, it is important to plan your route correctly and choose a hotel that is convenient to start your morning and end your busy day from.


The ideal accommodation option would be the "Express Sadovaya" Hotel. It is located in the very center of the city, from where you can easily reach the main attractions on foot. This is especially convenient when you only have two days — you don’t have to waste time on transport and can immediately immerse yourself in the St. Petersburg atmosphere.


The walking route for the first day:


-Breakfast near the hotel in one of the local cafes.

-Walk along Nevsky Prospect to the Kazan Cathedral.

-Visit to the Church of the Savior on Spilled Blood and the Summer Garden.

-Lunch on Malaya Sadovaya or Rubinstein.

-Visit to the Russian Museum or a trip to the theater in the evening.

- Dinner at a restaurant by the canals.


Accommodation in the center, like the Express Sadovaya Hotel, allows you to build a flexible route, without being tied to transport or time. In the morning, you can easily go for a walk, and in the evening - effortlessly return to your room, without fear of traffic jams or complex logistics.


Itinerary for the second day:


- Early rise and breakfast.

- Walk to St. Isaac's Square and the colonnade.

- Visit to the Hermitage (or the Yusupov Palace - your choice).

- Walk along the Palace Embankment and the spit of Vasilievsky Island.

- Lunch with a view of the water.

- A short boat ride.

- Return to the hotel and departure.


Choosing the "Express Sadovaya" Hotel, you get not only comfort, but also a practical solution for those who want to see St. Petersburg in two days. Museums, embankments, restaurants and historical monuments are within walking distance from the hotel, and the silence of the courtyard and the comfort of the rooms will ensure a full rest after walking.


Such a weekend will be a real reboot and an opportunity to change the scenery for a short time, without going far and without wasting time on lengthy preparation. St. Petersburg welcomes guests at any time of the year, and a hotel in the right location makes this meeting especially pleasant.
