Fodor's Expert Review InterContinental Moscow Tverskaya

These distinctive new lodgings on the site of the demolished Soviet Minsk hotel pamper guests in contemporary luxury, accented by an enthusiastically helpful staff. Acres of marble and glass swath the sophisticated surroundings—rather gaudily in the sprawling lobby but with especially pleasing effect in the lavish bathrooms. The Tverskaya shops, several metro stations, and the Kremlin are within walking distance.
