It is just outside the center of the city. You can easily walk downtown in about a half hour, or walk to the subway in about 5-10 minutes, or take a taxi (they're cheap in Peter) The room was clean and nice, but perhaps a little dated in decor. Overall very happy with the hotel, especially when factoring in how... More

Standard hotel for staying in St-Pete all the year round. Not the closest to the center and the metro stations, but a walking distance from 2 of my partners. In summer it's a pleasant long evening walk down to the center and back. The restaurant is good, the beakfast with quite a wide choice of meals. Some rooms are still... More

The hotel is huge and it takes time to get to the room from the front desk especially if you are given a room I'm the west wing tower. The breakfast is not good, but can't ask for more considering the level of the hotel. The bathroom is clean, and I got clean hot water. Hair dryer is not free!... More

Booked through Russian Gateway and would NOT recommend this Company................................... "If you want to receive your tickets and hotel details just hours literally before you are due to leave, then this is the company for you. If you want to have all schedules... More

We came here in the summer time in August this year, so when we arrived at the hotel we expected a nice and comfortable room to rest for the rest of the day. However the room is so hot and humid, and we can't find air conditioner in our room. The staff said we had to pay 2000 rubles more... More

Though it is not located on a main street, it is still in historical part of the city. Renovated rooms, built in Soviet times. Perfect breakfast. Fantastic wiev from the top cafe. I do recommend as a former citizen. More
