St. Petersbourg Hotel
Hotel Übersicht
HistoryHistory throughout the ages has seen many faces pass through the doors of the
St Petersbourg Hotel. Named in 1850 as the Hotel de Petersbourg, this Hotel has
a grand reputation and calendar book of history. Even from the early thirteenth
century the owners of the plot of land the building now stands, were some of the
most famous town merchants and burgermeisters. But the real history starts in
the fifteenth century when a wealthy Russian merchant named Proklov from Russia
with extensive holdings in the area, purchased the property and appointed the
famous local architect August Gabler to construct a home. The merchant
accustomed to the best, had Gabler construct the property as it stands today for
his personal use, where he entertained in a lavish style in one of the grandest
homes.
While the buildings are no longer the personal domain of wealthy Russian and
German merchants of the past, the St Petersbourg Hotel has past the rest of
time, enduring and celebrating the momentous changes in the historic development
of the region and Tallinn. Ever since 1921 when it catered to the first Russian
Ambassador to Estonia, it has been home of important politicians and business
leaders helping to shape the future. As the wealthy patricians of days gone by,
who entertained and conducted important affairs of state and business in an
opulent style, the Hotel welcome a new breed of local businessmen, diplomats and
modern day entepreneurs, who today feel right at home in the Hotel's
surroundings.
