Radisson Sonya Hotel

Loosely themed around the works of Fyodor Dostoevsky, and named after the unfortunate heroin of his most famous novel, Crime and Punishment, the Radisson Sonya Hotel is a deluxe design hotel on Liteyny Prospekt in downtown St. Petersburg.

Unlike its sister hotel in St. Petersburg, the Radisson Royal Hotel, the Radisson Sonya Hotel eschews traditional elegance in favour of vibrant contemporary design and an ultramodern vibe that extends from the 173 well equipped rooms and suites to the hotel's four state-of-the-art meeting spaces and the high-concept Metamorfos Restaurant, where each dish on the menu is figuratively linked to an aspect of Dostoevsky's life and works. Four-star amenities include the modern Revival fitness centre with two Turkish baths, and complimentary hi-speed Wi-Fi Internet throughout the property. Along with all St. Petersburg properties managed by the Carlson Rezidor group, the Radisson Sonya Hotel has qualified for a Green Key award that demonstrates the company's commitment to protecting the environment and promoting sustainable tourism.

Housed in a reconstructed 19th century apartment building at the northern end of Liteyny Prospekt, the Radisson Sonya Hotel has a location that combines definite attractions - the beautiful Summer Garden and several other historic sights are a short walk away and the hotel is very convenient for guests arriving from Helsinki on the Allegro high-speed train - with the slight disadvantage of being at least ten minutes' walk from the nearest metro station.
