Aeroflot Lounge
★4.0(32 reviews)LED
Pulkovo's pay-per-visit lounge — no status needed, with a hot and cold buffet.
The Aeroflot Lounge at Saint Petersburg Pulkovo sits in the international departures area and was formerly known as the Sherotel Business lounge. Its main draw is access: it's the one lounge at Pulkovo that accepts paid entry, so you can pay per visit without airline status or a lounge membership. That makes it the natural choice for independent travellers, for anyone flying an airline without lounge access, or as a fallback when the alliance lounges are busy. Inside, the focus is on food and drink — a complimentary hot and cold buffet alongside a full bar serving wine, beer, spirits and soft drinks. It's a straightforward, accessible place to eat, drink and settle before an international departure.
Crowding · varies
A reasonable place to settle and eat before a flight, with seating you can use for a laptop. It's more of a relaxed buffet lounge than a work-focused space, so plan it as a meal-and-drinks stop rather than a quiet office.
A complimentary hot and cold buffet — the most food-forward offering of Pulkovo's three lounges — paired with a full bar serving house wine, beer, spirits and soft drinks. For a pay-per-visit lounge, the buffet makes it a solid place to eat properly before an international flight.
After clearing security and passport control for international departures, follow signage to the Aeroflot Lounge (formerly the Sherotel Business lounge).
