Druzya Priozersk

“Friends Priozersk” — a special project in the chain: it’s the first “Friends” hotel outside St. Petersburg. It’s nestled in the charming town of Priozersk, just 130 km from the Northern Capital, in a place where nature seems made for recharging: between the majestic Lake Ladoga and the picturesque Vuoksa lake‑and‑river system, famous for its untouched beauty. Here, it’s easy to forget about the hustle and bustle: the air is cleaner, footsteps sound softer, and the landscapes feel tailor‑made for long walks and photos you’ll want to revisit again and again. The hotel is located right in the town centre, so you can easily explore Priozersk, pop into local cafés, stroll along quiet streets, and, if you wish, quickly reach the most appealing nature trails. The hotel has just 10 private rooms, creating an intimate, almost homely atmosphere where you won’t feel crowded or rushed. Rooms accommodate 2 to 4 guests, and the space pleasantly surprises you: standard rooms are about 16 sq. m, while superior ones are around 24 sq. m. Here, you don’t want to hurry; you just want to breathe, look around, and notice the details — from the texture of the carpet to the way light plays in the mirrors. The interior design is bold and expressive, with a refined touch of Art Deco. Soft furniture, textured carpeting, patterned wallpapers, round mirrors, and original lamps — every element contributes to a sense of coziness and style. The space is thoughtfully arranged so you feel not like a guest, but like the master of the moment: you can curl up on the sofa with a cup of tea, watch your favourite film on the large plasma TV (with over 100 satellite channels), or simply sit by the window, watching how the light changes throughout the day. Free Wi‑Fi lets you stay connected, plan your next route, or share your impressions — or you can put your phone aside entirely and fully immerse yourself in the atmosphere of silence and beauty.
