Staying at Renartiss Isaakiy in Saint Petersburg was a fantastic experience. The hotel is perfectly located right in the heart of the city, just steps away from St. Isaac's Cathedral and within walking distance to the Winter Palace. Public transport is super convenient, making it easy to explore everything nearby. The room itself was clean, spacious, and well-maintained—very comfortable for our stay. The front desk staff were incredibly friendly and spoke excellent English, which made check-in and check-out smooth. One thing to note: there’s a mandatory 350 rubles per person immigration registration fee upon departure, and it must be paid in cash. We recommend bringing some cash just in case. Overall, this hotel offers great value, exceptional location, and a welcoming atmosphere—definitely a top choice for anyone visiting Saint Petersburg.

We stayed overnight at the Aparthotel Vertical in St. Petersburg, booking the Popova apartment for a team of seven athletes plus our coach. The space was more than sufficient for eight people—no crowding at all—and the photos truly matched reality. The soundproofing in the unit is excellent; even with loud music outside, we couldn’t hear anything when the door was closed. The kitchenette is fully equipped with a sink, stove, refrigerator, microwave, kettle, cutlery, and a complete set of dishes—including dessert plates, dinner plates, and a salad bowl—for everyone. Everything was clean and well-maintained. Bed linens were crisp white and fresh, and the pillows and duvet provided great comfort. One small note: the upper-level bedrooms felt a bit warm during the night. Adding an air conditioner or installing a skylight-style window could help improve ventilation. The hotel also features a Belgian restaurant with an impressive selection of Belgian beers. You can access it either from inside the building or directly from the street—a convenient touch. Staff at reception were friendly and helpful. In the lobby, right across from the front desk, there’s a large aquarium filled with turtles and other aquatic life. If you’re waiting to check in, it’s nice to just relax and watch the fish swim around. Overall, the stay left a very positive impression. I’d definitely recommend this place to friends and would happily return.

Staying at Antares by Center Hotels in Saint Petersburg was a real highlight, especially given the price. Located on a quiet stretch of Nevsky Prospekt—less crowded than the main tourist spots—it's super convenient for getting around. Just steps away from a Pятерочка and Magnit convenience store, I never had to go far for essentials. The staff were friendly and welcoming, and the room came with all the basics—including air conditioning. The only things missing were a safe and bathrobe, but honestly, those aren’t dealbreakers when you’re only spending a few hours in the room each day. Cleaning happened just once during my four-night stay, but they did ask if I wanted it done, so no complaints there. I noticed the shampoo and shower gel weren’t refilled, which is a small oversight. There was some noise from a neighboring room, but again, not the hotel’s fault. Still, I’d give it a full 10/10 because of the value. At about 1,100 rubles per night, this is way better than what I used to get at capsule hostels—where the only plus was location, right near Moscow Station. This place offers comfort, convenience, and a great vibe for the price. Definitely worth it, and I’d come back without hesitation.

I highly recommend staying at Bagration Hotel in St. Petersburg. This three-story building offers stunning views of the Neva River, with a perfect sightline to the Alexander Nevsky Bridge—especially magical at night when the bridge opens for river traffic. The breakfast is delicious and well worth the price, with fresh, quality options that make mornings enjoyable. Rooms are spotless, with crisp white linens and towels, and daily replenishments of tea, coffee, cream, water, and sugar. Bathroom amenities are thoughtful—shampoo, shower gel, soap, shower caps, cotton swabs, and even earplugs are provided. One minor drawback: no toothbrushes or toothpaste included, so bring your own. There’s parking available, but it’s an additional cost, so plan accordingly. Overall, this hotel delivers great value, comfort, and convenience. It’s a fantastic choice for travelers who appreciate attention to detail and a prime riverside location.

The view from the Angleterre Hotel is absolutely stunning—every morning I woke up to breathtaking vistas of historic buildings and the riverfront. The location couldn't be better; it's perfectly positioned for exploring St. Petersburg on foot or by metro, with major attractions just a short walk away.

Staying at Aston Hotel was an absolute delight. Located right on Nevsky Prospekt, the hotel offers unbeatable access to public transportation—trams, buses, and the metro are just steps away. The surrounding area is packed with great restaurants, and it's a short walk to iconic sites like the Church of the Saviour on Spilled Blood and Kazan Cathedral. I even took a relaxing boat ride along the Neva River, which offered stunning views of the city’s historic skyline. The breakfast buffet was exceptional—plenty of variety, fresh ingredients, and delicious options. The front desk staff were incredibly friendly and went out of their way to help me book a ride-share, making my travel seamless. Every detail felt thoughtfully curated.

What really stood out was how close we were to a wide variety of restaurants—there’s something for every taste, from cozy local eateries to more upscale dining spots. I brought my girlfriend along, and she loved everything about it—the atmosphere, the service, even the little thoughtful touch of a gift during check-in, which turned out to be a sweet surprise for International Women’s Day. It’s clear this place cares about guest experience. If you’re looking for a stylish, central, and welcoming stay in St. Petersburg, this is the one. Highly recommended!

For the price, this hotel is an absolute steal just steps away from Red Square. The location is super easy to find and very convenient for getting around by metro. While there’s no elevator, the building isn’t too tall, so climbing the stairs isn’t a big issue. Front desk staff were friendly and efficient during check-in. One of the best things? It’s surprisingly quiet at night—no noise disturbances at all. If you’re looking for a great value stay in a fantastic central spot, this is a top recommendation.

We stayed at Mix Hotels Nevsky 47 for five nights and couldn’t be happier with the experience. The location is fantastic—walking distance to major attractions, shops, cafes, and public transport stops. While the nearest metro station is about a 10-minute walk away, the route is pleasant and well-lit, making it easy to navigate. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive, responding promptly to every request with genuine care. Our room was spotless, freshly cleaned daily, and featured crisp white linens that felt luxurious. Everything you’d need was thoughtfully provided, and the attention to small details truly made a difference—like the lighting, cozy touches, and quiet ambiance. After long days exploring the city, returning to our room felt like coming home. It’s clear this place values guest comfort and satisfaction.

Every detail felt thoughtfully done. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting the city—it’s a gem with excellent value and a welcoming atmosphere.

We've stayed at Hotel Happy Inn for the second time, and we couldn't be happier. Check-in was quick and smooth, but what truly stood out was the staff's thoughtfulness. When we mentioned our 25th wedding anniversary during registration, they actually remembered and made a special note. Upon returning to our room after an evening stroll, we were pleasantly surprised to find a small tray with a bottle of champagne and chocolates waiting for us—such a sweet and unexpected gesture. It truly made our celebration unforgettable. The hotel is quiet and peaceful, perfect for relaxing after a day of sightseeing. Breakfast was excellent—fresh, abundant, and delicious. From start to finish, the service, attention to detail, and overall experience exceeded our expectations. A heartfelt thank you to the entire team. We’ll definitely be back.

The hotel is perfectly located—just a short walk from public transit and close to shopping centers, making it super convenient for exploring the city. The staff were incredibly responsive and helpful whenever we had any questions or needed assistance—they addressed everything promptly and with a friendly attitude. While English communication was a bit limited (as often experienced in Russia), there was one team member who spoke Turkish, which made our stay much more comfortable. Breakfast was decent—nothing fancy but filling enough. What really stood out was the 24-hour Uzbek restaurant right next door—affordable, delicious, and always open late. We ended up eating there every night. Overall, this place offers great value, excellent location, and warm hospitality. A perfect choice for travelers who want comfort and convenience without the hassle.
