Expert reviews:

Concierge

"Designed to appeal to the high rollers... a Vegas sensibility, with brocade, polished walnut, gilding and molding, Italian marble and whirlpool tubs."

Fodor's

"The hotel conjures up plenty of grandeur and romance: Guest rooms are awash in light-gold wall coverings, marble-topped furniture, and loads of inlay and ornate plasterwork." Full review

Lonely Planet

"The Taleon Imperial Hotel is a grand, gaudy affair where every tap is gold-plated, every towel monogrammed and every room decorated with real and reproduction antiques." Full review

Travel + Leisure

"Spend the night in one of the 60 new suites at the Taleon Imperial Hotel, a favorite of Russian high rollers." Full review

Star Service

"This luxurious boutique-hotel in a historic palace does not hold the name recognition of the Kempinski or Four Seasons, but it attracts an equally sophisticated clientele." Full review
