Helen Hotel combines the impeccable aesthetics of France, the sophistication of interiors and the nobility of historical heritage, due to its location at the intersection of "wealthy" streets - Gorokhovaya and Bolshaya Morskaya. Gorokhovaya Street is an integral part of the Nevsky Trident toponymy, which pierces the space from the Admiralty to Zagorodny Prospekt with a swift arrow. It was there that in the middle of the 19th century the Tsarskoselsky railway station arose, which contributed to the transformation of Gorokhovaya Street into a government highway. Bolshaya Morskaya Street, solemnly emerging from the arch of the General Staff building, was called "aristocratic", "diamond", "Malaya Millionnaya". The fashion for everything French, as clearly as possible, manifested itself precisely on Bolshaya Morskaya Street. Here were located the fashionable restaurants "Café de Paris" (popularly "Cuba") and "Dusso", the famous hotels "France" and "Belle Vue". Some of the establishments were immortalized in the works of the classics of literature. Gorokhovaya and Bolshaya Morskaya streets were duly called "golden streets", because they were inhabited by famous nobles, wealthy merchants, cultural figures and masters of artistic specialties. The history of the Helen Hotel building only confirms these facts. During its existence, the hotel building has changed owners and appearance more than once, and has increasingly acquired historical value.
