The Hermitage does not have air conditioning throughout and the place becomes unbearably hot especially during the peak summer season when it also becomes choked with individuals and organised groups.

Seating areas are scarce - it is highly recommended to bring along a bottle of water.

The Hermitage museum is spread over 5 buildings and finding an efficient route around to see the more famous exhibits is quite a task – an independent licensed guide with permits for the Hermitage is recommend.
