The Ritz-Carlton, Moscow
The Ritz-Carlton, Moscow is an unapologetically Russian hotel that still maintains the global standards and elegance of the famous hotel brand. In fact, the staff here has taken national traditions and styled them into services fit for royalty: have a traditional Russian tea ceremony complete with the proper serving ware and classic costumes; order caviar with a vodka cocktail at the rooftop bar; or shop the hotel's jewelry and fur shops.
