Historical overview
The Yekateringburg-Tsentralny hotel is a real heritage of the city, the living legend of the capital of Ural. The building of the hotel, which is situated in the very center of Yekaterinburg, was erected in 1928 and features the ‘rational modern’ style. The place for its construction has been chosen at a nameless square (Rosy Luxembourg st. and Malysheva st. crossroad). The Tsentralnaya hotel differed immensely from the other hotels of Yekaterinburg (former Sverdlovsk) due to its attractiveness: concrete pillars with bas-relief leaves on their capitals supporting high ceilings somewhere adorned with molding and somewhere brightly painted; superb huge ceiling lamps; large mirrors, wide marble stairs, elegant railings with openwork balusters, carpet strips and massive lifts.
During the Great Patriotic War, the rooms of the hotel were turned to flats in order to give shelter to the families of the evacuated. The Tsentralnaya hotel reacquired its former status as early as in January 1946. Since then the hotel has undergone several reconstructions, and now its building has been declared a monument of architecture of the 20th century. In 1993 the hotel acquired a new name: the Yekateringburg-Tsentralny hotel.
At different times, the Yekateringburg-Tsentralny hotel used to receive the guests whose names were known worldwide. For example, N.S. Khrushchev and Fidel Castro, O. Mandelshtam and V. Mayakovsky stayed here in 1961. To the present time, the Yekateringburg-Tsentralny hotel hosts conspicuous statesmen, large businessmen, and famous persons. In 1998 the hotel accommodated members of the royal family that were visiting Yekaterinburg.
Today, the Yekateringburg-Tsentralny hotel has completely changed its appearance having preserved all the valuable historical features. The management of the Yekateringburg-Tsentralny hotel is aimed at a continuous improvement of the quality of the services provided. We offer our guests 92 comfortable rooms divided into several categories – from a single of econom-class to a luxurious three-room suite. Regardless of the cost and category, all the rooms have a bathroom and are equipped with modern high-quality furniture. All the rooms are provided with telephone, TV-set, mini-bar and other attributes of a modern three-star hotel. Traditionally, the cost of the room covers the cost of breakfast (‘buffet style’). In the hotel, you can find one of the best restaurants of the Japanese cuisine ‘Wasabi’ and a genuine Parisian-style coffee house ‘Shoko’. If you want to relax after a working day, we are glad to invite you to the nightclub ‘Crystal’. By the way, the restaurant ‘Savoy’ has recently been opened in the hotel after its reconstruction.
