lovely service, free welcome volka and ice cream with candies and pickles. Super clean bed and room to a japanese level.
Breakfast is 300P/person, it tastes good aswell. They always offer you free ice cream, tea and coffee when you are back from outside, you can make order at any time from room as well.
This lovely hotel is almost too good to be true. The staff were absolutely delightful. The people here are its greatest asset, full of life and vigour.
The room was huge, very clean and well appointed. Nothing was left to chance.
Breakfast was served right on time and beautifully presented. The porridge was just like good old fashioned stove cooked oats.
Communicating was never an issue, as customer service is top priority.
Well done everyone. You helped make our stay in St Petersburg a happy and memorable one.
What a change from Moscow. This place is on a side street with immediate access to restaurants and stores. It's a few blocks away from the rail station and the subway. But, we did mostly walking. We even walked to the Hermitage Museum. Not to be missed. A suggestion: Find on the internet the "miss the line tour. When the museum opens at 10am, the floodwater gates are open and the musem become almost unpassable. Incredible art, but too many people.The Kamerdiner was awesome. With afternoon pasteries and a very large room. Worth another stay when we come back to St. Petersburg
Absolutely worth what you pay. The free room upgrade may be influencing my decision a bit, but the 'standard' rooms looked just as comfortable, only smaller. Bonus points for lovely gesture from the staff for gf's birthday. Breakfast in the room if desired at no extra cost. Tea and ice-cream at any time to the room at no extra cost. Discounts for some nearby restaurants available from hotel. I mean, wow!
If I had to be critical, I would have a few qualms over the quality of some breakfast ingredients, but that may just be me being picky in terms of taste preferences. However, this did not affect the quality of my stay. Indeed, for the price paid, value for money was through the roof. Really, all very impressive. Would (will!) stay again, and recommend to all who want a pleasant, comfortable, well-looked after (only if desired, of course) stay.
I did not end up staying at this lovely hotel, but I must praise their staff/service to the skies. I arrived in St. Petersburg late in the evening and was "stood up" by my Airbnb host. As I was trying to figure things out, I wandered into this hotel to ask for help. The receptionist, Марина, was so incredibly kind! She worked through my language barrier (I don't know Russian at all), she set me up with wifi, made a phone call for me as my phone wasn't working, and since, there wasn't availability in the hotel for that night, called around to neighboring hotels to find vacancy because she didn't want to send a lone, young woman out wandering at night. I can only imagine their service must be phenomenal!
