Embrace the never-say-never ethos of Europe’s most decadent capital, whether you soak in the city’s opulence or want to live like a modern-day Romanov at home.
The Setting: Europe’s most populous—and expensive—city beckons travelers, thanks to its modern attitudes, rich history, glorious museums and eye-popping nightlife.
The Scene: Spend the day relaxing at the Sandunovsky Baths before heading to the theatrical Café Pushkin for a multicourse dinner complete with blini and caviar. Late night, head to the Arma district, a pulsing nabe overflowing with pop-up bars, design studios and clubs. Recover with breakfast at stylish Coffeemania.
The Stay: Embrace the city’s storied past at the Ritz-Carlton Moscow, where the pre-Revolution-style décor and stellar service will leave you pampered like a petrol-pushing oligarch.
