Most often, the creation of a new mini-hotel begins with a consistent redemption of all apartments by an investor in one of the entrances or buying a communal apartment with the subsequent resettlement of residents. Public utilities located in the central regions of St. Petersburg, with an area of 200-300 square meters, preferably near the stations and metro stations are in special demand.
After that, in accordance with Russian legislation, in order to obtain permission to redevelop, repair and further obtain the status of a mini-hotel (the main difference between a mini-hotel and a large hotel, like Corinthia of the Nevsky Palace, is the number of rooms and the level of services provided.), once a residential object must be re -registered in a non -residential premises. In addition, it should meet the requirements of fire supervision, SES, and other safety standards. The long process of transferring the premises from the housing stock to non-residential, and the subsequent receipt of the relevant certificates and permits and occupies the lion’s share of the entire time to create a mini-hotel.
Even executed as an application for redevelopment, officials can be rejected only because in accordance with the law in the living room there cannot be more than two toilet rooms. And according to the standards of SES, it is strictly impossible to feed the guests in the housing stock, and even more so without a license to trade in alcohol drinks. That is why about 15% of Peter mini-hotels are not registered at all.
However, the execution of all necessary formalities in the room begins repair. The difficulty of such a restructuring is that each room needs to be turned into a mini-apartmentar from an integral part of which is a bathroom with a shower. Since the rooms did not initially be provided for raw rooms, it is necessary to make a rather complex waterproofing in all norms and rules under each bathroom, otherwise it is likely that the relevant supervisory organizations will not give permission to function a mini-hotel.
If the investor does not spare money, then a warm floor, an excellent shell, a spacious shower, a mirror with backlight, a toilet, special towels for towels and the necessary toilet supplies will be installed in each bathroom bathroom.
The rooms carry out high -quality repairs using modern building materials, new doors are installed, windows are either restored, if the house is a historical monument, or newly erected new. In the interior of each room, there is a modern TV, comfortable beds, nightstands, carpets, fan or air conditioning, cabinets for clothing.
The kitchens are also equipped with the latest technology, in some mini-hotels a special room for breakfast is equipped, but most often breakfast is supplied directly to the room.
The entrance to the mini-hotels in St. Petersburg are most often organized through the front, t. e. Together with other residents of the house, the hotel owners make cosmetic repairs there, install the intercom at the entrance, but if it is possible, the mini-hotel equips a separate entrance.
And in this way the old communal apartment becomes cozy, conveniently located mini-hotel.
