My mother and I visited the Petro Palace for a four day break to see the Hermitage gallery. We chose it because it is walking distance from the Hermitage (even in the snow for a 69 year old). First time in Russia so all the visa-obtaining was new to me. The staff at the Petro Place were brilliant ... answered... More

The first person you meet in a hotel can oftern give you your overall impression of the hotel. So when I arrived at 08.00 having travelled overnight from Moscow to check in adn was greeted with "You'll have to pay!" it sort of sets the visit off on the wrong foot - especially as I had already pre-paid for the...

We arrived into St Petersburg on the overnight train from Moscow so were far too early to check-in. The staff were happy to hold our luggage for us while we found something to occupy our time for a few hours. Within 2 minutes of walking we stumbled into The Hermitage. We checked-in after lunch with no hassles. The room was... More

This may be one of the worst hotels I have ever stayed in. We booked the Petro Palace because of the location, star rating and gym. Ignore all of the above except the faultless location. We arrived earlier than check in time and asked whether it was possible to check in early, we had experienced this in other Hotels during... More

First of all thank you for your comment! Please accept our appologies for inconvenience caused! According to hotel’s rules there really is a charge for early check-in. The same policy exists in majority of hotels in our city. Surely if guest arrives up to one hour before check-in time (14:00) and we have rooms ready - we provide room free... More

It was commented enough about perfect location of the hotel.The rooms are also quite comfortable. Basically that's all I enjoyed there. The breakfast consisted of a sandwich from a supermarket and a cup of coffee or tea. Internet is available at the rooms only at extra fee (around 15 EUR per day), the gym and the swimming pool are small... More

Dear Mikhail, We highly appreciate your opinion about our hotel, we’re doing our best every day to become better! There really are extra charges for some additional services that are not used by all guests. By this we keep our room rates affordable for all guests. Including extra services in room rates means encreasing them, as there really are costs... More

As everybody obviously commented, the hotel is ideally located for visiting St. Petersburg main attractions on foot. A nice surprise was that during my stay (December 2011) a new metro stop opened just around the corner (Line 5, stop Admiralty -not sure if the spelling is correct). Even though the main attractions are in a walking distance, the underground public... More

Although the rooms and interior here are a bit dated, I thought the hotel was very well located and priced compared to others in St. Petersburg. You really can't beat the positioning in the city and the easy access to everything you want to see is just perfect. I went through a number of options on hotels before settling on... More

Stayed here for four nights. Great location right near main attractions of St Petes. Hotel is very old (as everything in Russia). The first room we were given had a strange noise coming from somewhere to the point where it was difficult to sleep so we were moved to another room. Rooms overall were Ok but fairly basic and they... More
