Moscow and St. Petersburg should be really pretty. And I believe Prague and Warsaw also wonderful, as well as Lucerne or Innsburg or Vienna.
How about Budapest? Or maybe Istanbul (Turkey)?

The only cities that you mention that I have been to are Prague, Vienna and Innsbruck. Prague is absolutely stunning and is the prototype of the central European medieval city, because it hasn't been bombed to the ground like the rest of the cities during WW2. Vienna is a classic, absolutely wonderful with coffeehouses and a lot of turn of the century (that is 1900) grandeur. Innsbruck is very cute, but I'd rather go to Salzburg, where you lack the great view of the Alps though.
I heard that among the aother cities you mention, especially St. Petersburg and Budapest stick out. And while you are in Russia/St.Petersburg you might want to visit Talinn, the capital of Estonia. My brother worked there for a few months and the pictures looked beautiful: there is fraternity life and a cute city with lots of buildings that date back to the16thcentury.
