As a frequent traveller I am always glad to find something out of the common and routine Hilton, Sheraton and other -ton way. If you look for and antiseptic and boring hotel experience this is perhaps not the place to be but I fell really happy staing in this hotel for the forths or fifths time and certainly go back... more

We stayed here on a tour and were initially impressed with the old Russian style personality and character that the hotel had. The rooms are traditional and not all that comfortable, but we were ok with that. There was a decent breakfast and free internet in the lobby The downside was that it was a 15 minute walk to the... more

We stayed 3 nights at the Sovietsky Hotel in May through a Trafalgar Tour, If you wanted an extra night (which we would have liked to have had) Trafalgar insisted you pay $460 Australian. This is certainly not the rate they were paying, nor the rate shown on Trip Advisor. At that price we were not willing to extend -... more

Restaurant ...very good The Staff is the weakest point, mainly the reception staff can speak english. The wireless internet very expensive 15 USD for one hours. On the lobby is available two PC with internet connection for free (very slow connection maybe 56k). Russian architeture. more

Loved this hotel for several reasons. Staff were friendly, spoke good English. Food great, but needed a little more variety in the small restaurant. Decor was palace like especially in the Yar. Rooms were not perfect, quite old in design but that fit with the rest of the hotel. Very clean hotel. Clean hot water. Also Chuck Norris has stayed... more

We were pleasantly suprised by its grandeur. The staff was very friendly and we found the hotel quite comfortable. It is definitely a hotel that... more

Just back from a short holiday in Moscow, where we stayed in this hotel. The staff were friendly and efficient and spoke good English while we were there (when booking by email some English was a bit unusual) The interior of the hotel is over the top in its extravagence, it's clean and relaxed. The rooms are large (even for... more

I booked this hotel for a few business meetings in Russia and what a great find it is. The lobby and hotel come straight out of the 1950's with a dance show that you can watch having dinner - the singer is even good! The internet is free and worked and I even had access to a printer in the... more

We liked our stay, the location was easy enough to get to the subway from, that being said it's a busy street you need to get underpasses to get across. The metro was easy to negotiate, and the overall location was not bad. The breakfast at the hotel was good, and the staff were good. But the beds were circa... more
