The four of us stayed in the Barcelona room for 4 nights at the end of May. The suite is spacious and has two bedrooms and a large living area. The downside is that there is only one bathroom which can be a problem with four adults. The hotel is next to the St. Nicholas church and a short walk... more

I arrived in St Petersburg with my boyfriend on a train from Helsinki. The train arrived at 11.30pm and we were greeted by a taxi driver orgainsed by the hotel to take us to Alexander House. It was a good start to a really lovely stay in both the hotel and the city. Alexander House is a lovely boutique hotel.... more

Alexander house is a lovely little hotel with extremely good service. We rented the Barcelona apartment (two bedrooms and a sitting room), which worked well for our family of four. Our rooms and the common areas (library, courtyard, restaurant) are just beautiful - great care clearly has been lavished on their decoration and upkeep. Their food is also quite good-... more

This is a beautifully decorated hotel that has spacious rooms, beautiful common areas, smiling staff and delicious breakfast. The location is a fair bit of walk from the Metro, but if you do as the locals do to take a mini bus ride (like K-7and others) to and from the Metro, the location is not a problem at all. And... more

Yes, it is a little out of the way, but this is a great hotel! We LOVED it. We had a room in the luxe category and got a large room, a kitchenette, a shower and heated tile floor in the bath. The breakfast was very good. There is a pretty garden in the courtyard to enjoy in the summer.... more

I agree with the previous reviewer: this is a hotel, not a B&B. My experience (four nights) was also delightful: very large room with large bathroom (shower cabinet, no bath), excellent bed, good A/C, consistently good and kind service (not so frequent in SP), good breakfast bufftet (try the pancakes and the honey), homely atmosphere. A previous reviewer mentioned the... more

I don't know why this hotel has been re-catagorized - it really is a proper hotel - albeit with only 14 rooms and 2 suites. It has a bar and a restaurant which is open until 1am in the morning. Very useful when you have been to the Mariinsky and want something to eat before or after. We were delighted... more

The A-House is a very nice place. I was in the "Marrakech" room for 3 nights and is very large for 1 person. One thing I judge hotels on is the bathrooms, which are very nicely appointed. The beds are pretty comfortable for Europe. The breakfast buffet is good and they will make you anything you like. One thing to... more

I stayed at this small hotel in July 2005. It was a very interesting hotel. Our room had a large living room area and two bed rooms. The bathroom was very modern. We also had nice views of the river. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The hotel has a car service which will take you places and pick... more
