FREE Newsletter. Sign Up Now! Russia Travel Guide In large Russian cities, especially Moscow and St. Petersburg, visitors have a range of options for accommodations, although not as many as you might expect for a country this size. Hotels include Western chains that are four- or five-star (with accompanying prices), as well as smaller hotels that are reasonably priced, clean and in good locations for tourist sites. Sometimes your hotel will be able to arrange your visa for you, and often can provide transportation from the airport, rail station or dock.
Intourist is now a joint stock company but in Soviet times was the state-owned travel agency with a monopoly over the tourist industry. There are still Intourist hotels around Russia and other CIS countries and they are trying to escape their dreary planned-economy interior decorating, but not always successfully. Intourist can book hotel rooms for you in St. Petersburg, Moscow and elsewhere in Russia.
ST. PETERSBURG
Book your rooms as soon as you can, because St. Petersburg's hotels are having a hard time keeping up with the two million annual visitors.
Book your rooms through a reputable travel service, such as a travel agency or online service that you trust. If you need the type of comfort that you would find at home, customer service, and lots of amenities that separate you from the world outside, stay in a top-ranked hotel. If you don't mind that things aren't like at home and can make do with some inconvenience or bad decorating, a lower-ranked hotel will work for you. You should make a choice based on your budget, proximity to tourist sites, and flexibility.
The RussianGuideNetwork has reviews by an American for large and small hotels in St. Petersburg, along with practical information (such as whether staff speak English) and photos.

Expedia St. Petersburg hotel list
Apartments
You can rent apartments in St. Petersburg that are equipped with modern furnishings and are ideally located for tourism. Short-term and long-term rentals are possible, with prices as low as US $55 (45 Euro) per night.
Roxana Apartments Apartments are near Nevsky Prospekt and the historical center.
Lodging SPB Apartments range from elite (most expensive) to budget.
MOSCOW
Moscow's hotel choices have certainly improved in the last decade and they will continue to expand. The situation is similar to St. Petersburg's, with demand encroaching on supply.

The Legend of The Griswold Family The "VACATION" Players John Hughes (Writer) : Profile / Video Store Chevy Chase : Video Store Beverly D'Angelo : Video Store Randy Quaid: Video Store John Candy: Video Store Anthony Michael Hall : Video Store Wayne Newton: Video Store National Lampoon's Vacation (1983) VACATION The Traveling Griswold's, they've been everywhere from "Walley World" to "Europe" to "Vegas". They travel so much that on only one occasion did they have time to spend Christmas at home and what a disaster it was. This page is a tribute to Clark Wilhelm Griswold Jr., "The World's Greatest Family Man". Clark believes that the best way to keep his family together is to take them on "Vacation". One thing is for sure when the Griswold's go on "Vacation" anything and everything can happen. The legacy of this typical American family began in 1983 when Clark (Chevy Chase) and his wife Ellen (Beverly D'Angelo) decided to take their kids Rusty and Audrey on a cross-country summer vacation to a Disneyland type theme park known as Walley World. This was to be the Griswold's first big trip away from home. Clark left nothing to chance using his new wiz-bang home computer to streamline all the finer details to ensure nothing went wrong. The Griswold's had been planning this perfect summer vacation all year and they were determined to make the most of it, but as they say "nothing ever goes according to plan", especially for the Griswold's. What could possibly go wrong, everything! They lose their money, their new car gets wrecked and Cousin Eddie (Randy Quaid) insists that Clark takes old Aunt Edna with them cross-country. Well if you thought things couldn't get any worse for the Griswold's, your wrong, old Aunt Edna unexpectedly dies and thrown in for good measure just to distract Clark from all the madness is the mysterious blonde (Christie Brinkley) in the flashy red Ferrari. This first Griswold adventure "National Lampoon's Vacation" introduces us to Chevy Chase's hilarious portrayal of Clark W. Griswold. This fast, funny satire written by John Hughes was a big success at the American box office bringing in over $61 million. Look out for a special appearance by comedy genius John Candy in the film's finale. Outstanding performances, beautiful location scenery (Grand Canyon Arizona, Monument Valley Utah, Magic Mountain California ), a first rate soundtrack ("Holiday Road" and "Dancin' Cross The U.S.A" by Lindsey Buckingham, plus "I'm So Excited" by The Pointer Sisters) and extremely funny situations have all contributed to the success of this highly entertaining comedy. It was inevitable that sequels would follow. "For over two thousand years, Europe has survived many great disasters. Now for the real test. Chevy Chase & his family are coming from America!" In this 1985 sequel, the Griswold's win a deluxe "European Vacation" tour on a primetime TV game show. When the disaster prone Griswold family pack their bags and go to Europe, anything goes. In fact Europe will never be the same again. Their promised 5 star accommodation is missing a few stars and the fun doesn't let up as Clark has a go at left-hand driving, Audrey eats herself silly, Rusty goes nightclubbing and Clark's sexy home video ends up in the hands of a sleazy porno filmmaker. The Griswold's literally bowl over Stonehenge as they wreak havoc on their journey across the European continent. Sadly in this episode Clark's gross-out Cousin Eddie (Randy Quaid) is absent, nevertheless "European Vacation" still brought in a neat $49.4 million at the US box office. Your vision of Christmas will never be the same again when the Griswold's decide to spend their Christmas holidays at home. In "Christmas Vacation" (1989) Clark wants to make sure his family enjoys Christmas the old-fashioned way, so the well-intentioned walking disaster zone invites the relatives and decides to light up his house like a Christmas tree. He gets 25,000 lights and covers the house from head to toe, but Clark is quickly driven insane when the lights refuse to switch on. The plot thickens when Clark discovers he has missed out on his Christmas bonus cheque that he was going to use to install a swimming pool in the backyard. Temperatures continue to rise when uninvited Cousin Eddie (Randy Quaid) turns up in his mobile home and when Clark kidnaps his boss in retaliation for not receiving his bonus cheque a SWAT team raids his house. "Christmas Vacation" was a smash hit and became the highest grossing of the four "Vacation" films bringing in over $71million at the US box office. Bumbling family man Clark Griswold is back in "Vegas Vacation" (1997), the fourth instalment of the "Vacation" series and as the movie poster says, "This time the Griswold's are on a roll." "Vegas Vacation" was a moderate hit at the US box office grossing $36.4 million. When Clark receives a work bonus for developing a food preservative, he spends the money in the only way he knows how, take the family on "Vacation". This time the Griswold's head off to the gambling capital of the world Las Vegas or as Clark would prefer to say "the new family entertainment capital of the world". The glitz and glamour of the Vegas casinos form the perfect backdrop for this Griswold family adventure. Randy Quaid is back as Clark's grubby goofball cousin Eddie and Mr.Las Vegas himself, crooner Wayne Newton adds to the atmosphere as he tries to romance Clark's wife Ellen (Beverly D'Angelo). To add to the hilarity, Clark nearly destroys the famous Hover Dam, takes part in a Siegfried and Roy disappearing trick and loses the family fortune to a shifty blackjack dealer, played with expertise by Wallace Shawn. Even old favourite Sid Caesar makes an unexpected but memorable appearance in the film's nail-bitting finale. "Vegas Vacation" has a fitting ending to a wonderful series of four films when it is revealed that Clark's son Rusty (Ethan Embry) has won 4 brand new vehicles during his round the clock gambling binge. In the final scene Clark, Ellen, Audrey and Rusty ride out of Vegas and onto the dusty desert highway leaving the audience with a smile on their faces and anxiously waiting for the fifth instalment.
