Recently opened in Sankt Petersburg, the Hostel Club Chao, mama! is situated in the Admiralty District, close to Saint Isaac Cathedral. Based on a conception that proves appreciation for aesthetics and beauty, the interior design is approached in a contemporary style with exotic, rustic and historical elements. Black and white pictures decorate the walls encouraging a retro atmosphere. Also, antique elements of structure, brick walls and wooden casements, walls molds are well valorized.
The Hostel offers the possibility of choosing a common room, for example for students, with bathroom, common kitchen or private apartments with all facilities. What I especially appreciate from the Hostel Club Chao, mama! is the combination between contemporary design and “belle époque” elements. The balconies, belonging to 19th century architectural style, are a special location for serving coffee and enjoy the city. Website Chao, mama!
review
“A stylish hostel in easy reach of the city centre with bright, modern interiors, offering sophisticated dorms and apartments sleeping up to four. There’s a fully equipped kitchen for guests’ use and a small communal area with table football and board games.”
“Chao, Mama feels more like a boutique hotel than a hostel. Interiors are stylish and modern, featuring grey and white bare-brick walls decorated with black and white photographic prints. Apartment guests are given their own key to access the premises via a separate door, ensuring plenty of privacy.”
