Radisson Collection Hotel, موسكو

Hotel Ukraina is one the famous seven buildings in Moscow that are known as “Stalinist skyscrapers” or “Seven Sisters”. Their special, highly distinguished style characterizes to a large degree the appearance of downtown Moscow serving as a striking architectural landmark of Russia’s capital. Hotel Ukraina that opened on May 25, 1957 was recognized as the largest hotel in Europe. For many years it was dubbed as “Moscow home” for guests from all around the globe. After half a century in service, the hotel required a thorough overhaul and complete modernization. The work continued for three years, and then, on April 28, 2010 a new, modern hotel was opened in the legendary building: Radisson Royal, Moscow. The hotel combines the best features of two eras: the grand imperial style and the moving aesthetics of the socialist society exist here in seamless harmony with modern “smart comfort” and global traditions of five-star service. From January 2019 Hotel Ukraina joins to Radisson Collection brand. Extraordinary architecture and superior style of the hotel have attracted remarkable persons: the book of distinguished guests is filled with autographs of such stars as, e.g., Marcello Mastroianni, Robert De Niro, Michel Legrand, Patricia Kaas, Cesaria Evora, Zachary Quinto, Dominic Cooper, Michael Flatley, Audrey Tautou, Sophie Loren, Joaquin Cortés, Ralph Fiennes, Francis Ford Coppola, Ving Rhames, Sean Bean, Christian Slater, Adrien Brody, Ronaldo, Zinedine Zidane, Cristiano Ronaldo and other celebrities.
