Marina & Andreas
have two "touristy" apartments in the center of St. Petersburg. Low-season and last-minute
discounts.
One unit is a small hotel room -like apartment with a
kitchenette on Konushennaya, just off Nevsky. Lots of light and at times
noise too. Very close to the Isakiyevsky Cathedral, former Royal Stables,
the "On the Blood" church dedicated to Alexander the Second who was
assassinated there in March of 1881 by revolutionaries unhappy either
with his liberal reforms in Russia and/or his crush of the Polish
uprising, which reminds us that no matter what you do in this land you
get screwed. I was most intrigued by a long corridor and the number of
locks you need to open before you get to the apartment.
Here is my
description from the winter of 2006/2007 when I stayed there for a
couple of pleasant days and night. The rate is around 50 Euro/night.
Their other place is on Millionnaya by The Hermitage.
My personal favourite. Dark and silent, with its own entrance. A piece
of Dostoyevskian Saint-Petersburg. A shower with a build-in stereo
system provide a bit of comic relief from the gravity of this vault of a
place . See my Millionnaya
page for details. NO LONGER AVAILABLE
Among other reasons I recommend
Marina & Andrea
is their fast response time.

respond
e-mails promptly and usually has a positive answer to just
about any enquiry, not necessarily related to accommodation.

Dear friends,
My name is
Tatiana, I live in St. Petersburg and work as a local guide for
more than 4 years, saving money of my clients and showing them more
real country than the one you can see from the tourist bus window. I
can help with planning and realization of your trip as an
experienced advisor and all-around assistant. I offer to my
guests both the essentials like the visa support, inexpensive
accommodation (B&B at my own apartment and other options) and
different sight-seeing programs. More than half of my site
www.RussianAdventure.com
is a useful information demanded by the independent travelers (check
for example <getting to St.Petersburg> section - by train, bus,
plane or ferry from Moscow, Helsinki, Tallinn or Riga). Write me to
info@RussianAdventure.com and deal directly with the local of your travel destination.
All consulting
is certainly free of charge. - Tatiana
Please note: Tatiana also has a
room for rent in her
apartment. She in St. Petersburg and Olesya
in Moscow (www.russiangirlfriday.com) are good buddies and work together
well. Think of them as a team that can render efficient assistance
in both Moscow and St. Petersburg. I regularly hear good feedback from Tatiana's
clients and guests. No complaints as of the time of this update

Being first time visitors to St.
Petersburg the website information was excellent regarding finding a
location, the photographs being a true
representation of the apartment. We were met by Alexey on arrival,
who was more than helpful in providing information on where to go,
where to eat. Constant contact enabled us to inform him of changes
and delays in our plans. And nothing was too much trouble. An
excellent service and a pleasure to deal with
