Hotel Moscow   J   Excellent proximity to a metro station.  www.hotel-moscow.ru  
St. Petersburg, Russia     Phone: 7 (812) 274-0020

Rates: Single $59 off season; double $81 off season; suite $139 off season; suite for two people $154; apartment $177 off season. They said prices are generally $30 higher in the summer. They are also renovating their standard rooms now. We saw a business-class room and it was fine. Off season cost was quoted as $100.

Location Rating: Good. It is in a quieter area, but the metro is right there and all the action in Saint Petersburg can be found at either the first or second metro stop.

Proximity to Metro: Excellent. Ploshchad Aleksandra Nevskogo Metro Station. A 2 minute walk.

Lobby Appearance: Clean.

Room Appearance: Clean... but remember we saw their more modern business-class room. The standard rooms are in the process of being updated.

Useful Nearby Businesses: Oops... I didn't take notice. There is an interesting church across the street and a famous graveyard with unusual grave stones. Old Nevsky Prospekt is right there. There must be some useful shops nearby.

Hotel Restaurants: They have a big banquet hall which they serve meals in. And there are a few bar type areas.

Other Amenities: They have a nice game area for playing pinball, pool or Russian billiards and even some gambling machines. Cost for pool is 200 rubles per hour. Downstairs they have a casino and bar/restaurant type area. Besides the gambling machines, there are a few blackjack tables. A casino in a hotel is unusual here. We saw some good quality oil paintings here, but of course they were expensive. The currency exchange rate was competitive. Plenty of souvenirs are available for sale here as well as inexpensive music cds. Internet access is also available.

Would I Stay Here? Yes.

Staff Speaks English? Yes.

Comments: The hotel looks clean. It is located just outside the heart of the city in a sleepy kind of area. But with the metro being right there, you are within easy reach of all the downtown action. The hotel is big with, I believe, 715 rooms. If you get a recently updated room, you will probably be fine. With room renovations in progress, their pricing may be adjusted in the near future.
