Location of President Hotel hotel
One might wonder why the Moscow street where the President Hotel is situated has a Tatar-sounding name, Yakimanka Street. This, however, has nothing to do with the Tatars since the name of the street comes from the Joachim (sounding in Russian as "yoakim") and Anna church that used to be located here, hence, Yakimanka. Another famous church, situated in Yakimanka Street, still stands today - the Church of John the Warrior, the construction of which, as the legend says, was led by the Russian Tsar Peter the Great. Not far from the hotel is the Tsentralny Dom Khudozhnika (Center of Arts and Artists) and the Park Iskusstv (Arts Park), and across the street from the Tsentralny Dom Khudozhnika is the famous Gorky Park of Rest and Recreation.
