Not everyone in Moscow has blinis breakfast with caviar. Perhaps that is why the Radisson Collection hotel offers its guests such an excessive display every morning: a buffet of more than 170 dishes . It doesn't matter where you come from. From French croissant to some Asian noodles , it seems to have it all.
It is not the only thing excessive in this five stars brimming with history. Because the former hotel Ukraine is, to begin with, one of the "seven sisters" or seven almost equal neo-Gothic skyscrapers that today hold the Moscow sky. They were commanded to build Stalin in a failed threat of competing with other spiky capitals. Some people see in the spirals of Ukraine a certain resemblance to the New York Empire State Building, but the colossal Soviet aesthetic is dominant.
In addition, no other establishment in the city can compete with the fleet of boats that rest on its jetty. The five-star hotel has ten panoramic yachts and water taxis that leave downtown every half an hour with stops at strategic points, such as the Gorky Park, the city's green lung.
Since last year, it is part of the Collection seal that the Radisson chain puts its accommodations more top . Now, the great transformation of ancient Ukraine took place in 2010 when, after three years of renovation, it reopened its doors, converted into a huge palace of 501 rooms and suites . The one that was for many years the tallest hotel in Europe (with 206 meters high) has 29 restaurants, 26 luxury stores and a collection of Russian art that adds 1,200 original pieces.
More numbers? For example, the 50 meters that the pool measures, perhaps the most unsuspected jewel of this hotel that served as the headquarters of the Argentine national team during the 2018 World Cup. In addition to Messi and company, in the visitors book of the tenth floor, one of the plants reserved for VIP clients, readings of the most diverse characters are read: from Bruce Smith to Andrea Botelli through the Chinese president, Xi Jinping , Francis Ford Coppola, Scarlett Johansson or Sophia Loren. This is due to the fame of its facilities, but also because it has the highest level of security possible, with facial recognition included.
Do not stop climbing to the 35th floor of the hotel to see the views. On one side the heart of the city appears; to another, the Moscow City or financial center: a bouquet of avant-garde skyscrapers, these from the years 2010 onwards. And one more clue: at one end of the grand lobby of the hotel, you can admire the diorama that brought the USSR to the universal exhibition in New York in 1977. The model represents the center of Moscow with amazing precision.
