I was very surprised with this hidden hotel. To find it, you look for "58" on the building. Then you find the passage to the courtyard and then you will see to the left a new building which is the hotel. But don't turn left. Go right to gain entry to this part of the courtyard.

The hotel features 15 rooms. I was very surprised with the elegance this hotel features. It is really nice. And I especially liked their spacious second floor suites with sloped ceilings and skylight windows.

The Arcadia was opened in May 2003. They have a sauna with current pricing of 600 rubles per hour. The rooms are individually climate controlled with air conditioning. And the hotel has an elegant 6 table restaurant. I was very surprised with the attractiveness of this facility. And the location is very good. I don't like the courtyard location, but it is certain to be quiet there and guests will not have city noise to disturb their sleep.

Also, another reason why I like this hotel is because of the neighborhood. There is beauty there. One of the canals is right in front of the building. And old, architecturally attractive buildings line the canal. Pizza Hut is on the other side of the canal. McDonald's is one block away and KFC just opened a location on Nevsky Prospect - which is a 5 to 7 minute stroll away. (Nevsky Prospect is the main, hip street in the city and you are very close to it when you stay at the Arcadia, yet away from the hustle and bustle.

Other notes:

1. The Arcadia has no elevator.

2. Of course I advise skipping the American fastfood. Saint Petersburg is loaded full of so many wonderful cafes and restaurants.
