Piter Inn is located in the centre of Petrozavodsk, so a sightseeing trip of the city’s landmarks will be no issue.
The Onega embankment has a unique open-air museum with incredible sculptures — presents from various towns and countries — forming a spectacular lane of fascinating imagery.
This location has traditionally hosted all large-scale city events, including City Day, which is held at the end of June and includes concerts, competitions, and public activities.
In summer, the Petrozavodsk embankment offers excellent space for walks, roller skating, cycling, scootering, jogging, and street workouts.

In winter, the embankment serves as a gathering place for participants and visitors to the International Winter Festival Hyperborea. This festival, which is usually held in February, has a jam-packed schedule that includes a snowmen show, fishing competitions, concerts, fairs, and workshops. The main event of the festival is the ice and snow sculpture competition which concludes with an award ceremony and leaves fragile works of art on the Onega embankment which, if the weather permits, will delight the residents and visitors of Petrozavodsk both in the northern sunlight and the colourful illumination against the dark sky.
