It’s all or nothing in Russia when it comes to certain things. After months of cold and darkness across winter comes 80 days of nearly round-the-clock daylight. Naturally that’s cause for mass celebration and it’s been that way since the 18th century. There can’t be too many better places to enjoy the phenomena than at the stunning Corinthia Hotel St. Petersburg, too. A city of literary acclaim – Dostoyevsky called it “The most abstract and intentional city in the world,” – St Petersburg is by no means the only place you can enjoy the rather bizarre phenomenon, but it is undoubtedly the country’s most beautiful city. Add that to the deal found in the White Nights package involving room upgrade, breakfast and free cocktails and you start to appreciate the amount of enjoyment you can actually fit into to 24 hours of daylight in Russia.
