Chekhoff Hotel Moscow, Curio Collection by Hilton

Golden Apple Boutique Hotel's seven-story facade speaks to its nineteenth-century pedigree. Inside Moscow's boutique-style beauty, minimalist design by Canadian architect Raphael Shafir adds twenty-first-century style. At the moment of arrival, for instance, a huge golden apple centered in the lobby gives the first hint of the eye-catching designer touches to come.

Each of the hotel's seven floors claims its own hue from the color wheel and carries it through to the 92 guest rooms and suites in bright accents that lend a vibrant, avant-garde look and feel. Each comes equipped with the latest amenities for today's traveler. Small gatherings assume a festive air at the Apple Bar & Restaurant, where private parties enjoy European and Japanese dishes made from the finest ingredients—and presented with designer flair.
