St. Petersburg’s record-breaking warm spell may have experts worried about global warming and climate change but local businesses and tourists are enjoying the weather — at least for now.
Maria Shchegoleva, an administrator at the St. Petersburg International Hostel, which accommodates foreign tourists, says there has been a lighthearted reaction to the subject from guests.
“They all laugh and call this winter ‘Brazilian,’” she told the St. Petersburg Times on Thursday.
“I can’t say that even those tourists who were dreaming of snow were disappointed. The ones who are more experienced with the proper Russian weather just joke that they probably had confused their planes and landed somewhere else,” she said. ►Continue reading

Special to The St. Petersburg Times
Over the last few years, St. Petersburg has become an attractive proposition for foreign and local investors and hotel operators. Among the ambitious projects that are currently being realized in the city is the construction of two new four star hotels — the Sheraton airport hotel near Pulkovo airport and the Sokos Hotel Vasilievsky on Vasilievsky Island.
The Sheraton project is planned to be a part of a 25-story mixed-use building consisting of a hotel, offices, underground parking and over 150 executive apartments and penthouses. It is to be situated on the corner of Dunaysky Prospect and Pulkovskoye Shosse.
“It will be a mixed-use building and the first time in the city that executive apartments are being sold with hotel room service provided,” said Alexei Gnesin, vice-president of the Adamant holding company that runs the project. “Such trendy apartments have been in popular demand in Moscow and abroad and we are the ones who will bring it to St. Petersburg.” ►Continue reading
