Premier Palace Hotel:<br />
One Hundred Years Ago<br />
Сегодняшний «Премьер Палас Отель»<br />
не был построен целиком как гостиница,<br />
не был он возведен и как единое целое.<br />
Это заметно и сейчас: всякий раз,<br />
поднимаясь по ступеням в коридорах<br />
отеля, ты пересекаешь границу между<br />
двумя зданиями.• Not all of today’s Premier<br />
Palace Hotel was built as a hotel, nor was<br />
it built in one piece. In the end, two palatial<br />
buildings were joined together. You can still<br />
see the gap when you walk the corridors.<br />
Wherever you have to climb some stairs,<br />
you are crossing the border between the<br />
buildings. We talk about the corner block with<br />
the main entrance and the adjoining building,<br />
down the road, at number 5 Shevchenko<br />
Boulevard. Then, in 1909, it was still called<br />
Bibikov Boulevard. The corner building, where<br />
we have today’s main entrance, was always<br />
meant to be a hotel.<br />
