The
Rossiya Hotel () was a large
hotel built in Moscow in
1967 at the order of
Soviet Union General Secretary of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union Nikita Khrushchev. Construction used the existing foundations of a cancelled skyscraper project, the eighth of the
Seven Sisters (Moscow). Large portions of a historic district of Moscow, known as Zaryadye, were demolished in the
1940s for the original project. At the time of its construction it was the largest hotel in the world. It was registered in the
Guinness Book of Records as the largest hotel in the world. It remained the largest hotel in
Europe up until its 2006 closure.
The 21 story Rossiya had 3,200 rooms, 245 half suites, a post office, a health club, a nightclub, a movie theater and a barber shop as well as the 2500-seat State Central Concert Hall. The building was capable of sheltering over 4,000 guests. The hotel was adjacent to Red Square, its 21-story tower looming over the Moscow Kremlin walls and the cupolas of Saint Basil's Cathedral. In 1977, there was a massive fire in the hotel, killing 42 and injuring 50.
Demolition
The Rossiya Hotel officially closed its doors on
January 1,
2006. Demolition of the building began in March 2006 for an entertainment complex loosely based on the design of the old
Zaryadye district. The project is being overseen by British architect Sir Norman Foster and includes plans for a new, two thousand room hotel with apartments and a parking garage. The developer of the site is Shalva Chigirinsky, a Russian oligarch who also owns
Sibir Energy. Sky's the limit for booming Moscow (Times Online)
