Vyborg Hotel, Nordic Classicism hotel in Vyborg, Russia
Vyborg Hotel is a Nordic Classicism building constructed in 1929 on Leningradsky Prospekt, distinguished by clean lines and balanced proportions throughout its facade. The structure displays symmetrical patterns and functional elements that characterize this architectural style.
The hotel was designed by Finnish architect Uno Ullberg and completed in 1929, at a time when Vyborg was under Finnish administration. The period of its construction marked intense business activity and architectural modernization in the city.
The building shows how early business travelers were accommodated in this border region and what role commerce played in daily life. The architecture reflects the blend of Finnish and Russian influences visible in its rooms and their design.
The hotel sits centrally on Leningradsky Prospekt with good access to several transport connections, making orientation in the city easier. Visitors wanting to view the architecture can study the building from outside at leisure and explore the surrounding commercial structures.
The hotel was originally part of a complex with the Karelian Printing House, combining lodging and business operations under one roof. This arrangement shows how important it was at the time to house traveling businesspeople directly next to production facilities.
