Staying at Apartments Kamara in Saint Petersburg was an absolute highlight of my trip. The location is unbeatable—just a short walk from the metro, major attractions, and a wide variety of restaurants. I loved that everything I needed was within reach without having to travel far. The apartment itself felt like a home away from home, with a full kitchen including a stove, microwave, and even a washing machine—perfect for longer stays or cooking your own meals. The building is incredibly quiet at night, which made for peaceful sleep despite being in a busy city. Bonus points for the luggage storage area in the common space—super convenient when arriving early or checking out late. Clean, well-maintained, and thoughtfully designed, this place offers incredible value. I’ve already booked it again for my next visit and highly recommend it to anyone looking for comfort, convenience, and a true local feel.

Staying at Bronza Living Quarters was an absolute delight for anyone who appreciates authentic charm and creative design. Nestled on the top floor of a residential building, the hotel captures the classic Saint Petersburg feel with its elegant entrance hall and elevator access—only two units per floor, so it’s quiet, intimate, and truly private. I stayed in room 203, which offered a stunning view of the rooftops and sunrise over the city—the morning light painting the sky with soft hues as clouds floated past the spire of the Admiralty. The wide windowsill is perfect for sipping tea or coffee while watching the sunrise, taking in views of the iconic landmark and the ever-changing sky. The bed was incredibly comfortable, with crisp white linens, and there were cozy slippers provided—quality that stands out. All the toiletries were well-chosen and thoughtfully included. One thing I noticed: no mini-fridge in the room, though I didn’t miss it personally—maybe it’s available in the common area, but I couldn’t confirm. The location is unbeatable—everything is within walking distance. Just steps from the Palace Bridge, you can even watch the bridge open during summer. A short stroll takes you to the Peter and Paul Fortress and the Hermitage Museum—both literally around the corner. Nearby shops offer affordable groceries and souvenirs. Photos on the site are accurate, but they don’t do justice to the warmth and uniqueness of the space. The staff welcomed us with genuine hospitality. This place feels like a home away from home. I’d highly recommend Bronza Living Quarters to any traveler seeking character, comfort, and a real local experience. Wishing the team continued success and many happy guests!

This hidden gem in the outskirts of St. Petersburg is truly special—quiet, charming, and surprisingly underrated. The hotel is nestled within a historic estate, offering guests unlimited access to the beautiful gardens and grounds. I loved how peaceful it felt while still being just a short distance from the city. Booking was simple through the platform, and payment was made on arrival—very convenient. Breakfast was served in a lovely greenhouse setting, not a buffet but thoughtfully prepared with fresh local touches. Plus, staying here gave me a 20% discount on visits to other estates in the Pushkin network—a fantastic bonus for culture lovers. If you're looking for a serene, authentic experience with a touch of Russian elegance, this place is a must-visit.

The room was small but perfectly adequate for a one- or two-night stay if you're mainly using it to sleep. The hotel feels a bit worn down overall, and the room definitely needs renovation. Still, it comes with basic amenities like an electric kettle, humidifier, TV, and hairdryer. They provide a toothbrush, toothpaste, and slippers—small touches that make the stay more comfortable. Water pressure is good, and both hot and cold water work well. There's a drinking water dispenser on site, plus an iron and ironing board available if needed. Breakfast includes tea, instant porridge, a sandwich, and a couple of small chocolate bars—simple but filling enough to start the day. It’s not luxury, but for a budget-friendly stopover, it gets the job done. If you’re just passing through and don’t mind a dated vibe, this could be a decent option.

We stayed just one night at Almaz Guest House before heading out for the Northern Capital Run. The hotel is clean, well-maintained, and ideally located—only about 600 meters from Dvortsovaya Square, making it super convenient for exploring the city center on foot or by public transit. One of the highlights is the small kitchenette in the room with all the basic cooking essentials—perfect for preparing a quick meal or snack without having to leave the room. The only downside is the street noise, which can be quite persistent—cars, motorcycles, and people walking by continue until late into the morning, especially during the White Nights period. If you're sensitive to noise, definitely request a room with patio windows when booking. Overall, despite the minor issue, the location, cleanliness, and value make this a solid choice for travelers looking for a comfortable and practical base in St. Petersburg.

I stayed in a standard single room, perfect for solo travelers. Access is via the courtyard through black gates—guests need to contact the hotel manager to gain entry. The highlights were great: the room came with a fully equipped kitchenette including a kettle, refrigerator, microwave, water filter, and space heater, plus all necessary cookware, dishes, and utensils—ideal for preparing simple meals. The linens and towels were clean and fresh, and the room itself was spotless. Additional amenities like an iron, ironing board, and hairdryer made packing easier. The room was very quiet—no street noise at all, which made for a peaceful night’s sleep. However, a few drawbacks stood out: no mosquito screens on the windows (a bit of a concern during summer), no toilet paper provided, the space heater’s cord was too short to place on cold flooring, the floor felt chilly, especially in winter, and the front desk staff took a while to answer calls. Also, the ventilation system seemed clogged, and there was no air freshener in the room. Despite these small issues, the overall value was strong. With minor improvements, this would be a top choice for budget-conscious travelers seeking comfort and convenience.

We arrived at Hotel Holland in St. Petersburg expecting a three-person room, only to find a folding bed instead of a proper mattress—despite paying 5,500 rubles per person (totaling 16,500 for the room). The bed broke shortly after we checked in, and when a staff member came to assess it, he immediately accused us of intentionally damaging it. We asked if they could bring a real bed instead, but were met with a sarcastic reply: 'Maybe we should bring a sofa next?' Later, they claimed this was just an extra bed, not part of the original booking, so the folding bed was provided as a compromise. Yet we paid 1,100 rubles per night per person—much more than the 500 rubles mentioned later—and couldn’t help but wonder where the difference went. The room’s walls felt like cardboard—every word we spoke echoed into the next room. In the bathroom, we found spiders and dust everywhere. The overall cleanliness was terrible, bordering on unsanitary. This experience completely ruined our trip. Not recommended.

Our stay at Friends on Sennaya Hostel was extremely disappointing. We booked a room during winter, but it was freezing cold—drafts came through the windows constantly. To make matters worse, we were given a summer-weight blanket, which offered no warmth at all. We ended up sleeping in our warm sportswear just to survive the night. The lack of basic comfort was obvious. Even more frustrating, the three-person room didn’t come with enough linens and towels for all guests, despite paying for the full rate. The shared kitchen microwave was completely broken and couldn’t heat anything up—a major inconvenience. On top of that, we were charged an unreasonable fee for a towel that likely cost less than 200 rubles. This kind of overcharging only adds to the negative experience. Overall, comfort and hospitality clearly weren’t priorities here. We hope management uses any revenue from these fees to invest in proper winter bedding instead. As it stands, this stay was far from comfortable or worthwhile.

The hostel is conveniently located, with most attractions within walking distance—perfect for independent travelers who want to explore on foot. That said, the cleanliness and upkeep were a major disappointment. The white doors looked dirty and stained, clearly in need of a good wash or even repainting. The walls weren’t white anymore—they were dusty and discolored. Over the course of our week-long stay, we never saw any housekeeping: no linen changes, no towel replacements, not even a quick tidy-up. On the ground floor, renovation work seemed to have been done ages ago, but there’s no maintenance now—peeling wallpaper, water stains, and dust everywhere. It’s frustrating to see such basic neglect. A little effort in cleaning and minor repairs would go a long way. Instead of hanging distracting artwork on the walls, management should focus on fixing what’s already broken. Honestly, if it were cleaner and better maintained, I’d be more likely to recommend it. As it stands, it’s only worth considering if you’re on a tight budget and just need a place to sleep.

This place was a terrible experience from start to finish. The entire building reeked of mustiness—every room, every corridor, even the shared spaces had that stale, old-house smell. The laminate flooring was warped and peeling, clearly just a cheap cover-up for poor maintenance. Suspended ceilings made me suspect there was old plaster underneath, which likely contributed to the persistent odor. There were no air conditioners, no proper ventilation—just unbearable heat and stuffiness, especially in summer. The bedding was worn out, faded, and looked like it had been washed too many times. In the showers, there wasn’t even a single hook for clothes—completely impractical. The hostel spans multiple floors, but the kitchen is only on the second floor, and staff don’t arrive until 9 AM. If you’re heading out early for sightseeing, forget about making tea or coffee—you’ll need your own kettle. The management’s attitude was downright dismissive, bordering on rude. One response I got: "If you don’t like it, just leave." That kind of comment really soured the whole stay. Thankfully, they refunded my money without hassle—but honestly, the damage was already done. I felt drained and depressed after each day trip; coming back here felt like a chore. I booked through a company called Yulana, but when issues arose, both the hostel and the agency pointed fingers at each other. Neither took responsibility. No one was truly at fault, but that didn’t make the experience any better. Avoid this place if you value comfort, cleanliness, and basic respect.

Staying at Volkov Hotel was a delightful experience. The hotel is cozy and well-maintained, with a surprisingly spacious and clean room that felt more than comfortable for a short trip. Breakfast was a highlight—freshly made omelets and pancakes that were delicious and satisfying. While it's a bit of a walk from the metro, it wasn't an issue for me since I was mostly exploring on foot or by taxi. The location is quiet and safe, perfect for unwinding after a busy day of sightseeing. Staff were friendly and helpful, and the overall value for money was excellent. I’d definitely recommend this hidden gem to anyone visiting St. Petersburg.

This hotel is absolutely outstanding—clean, well-maintained, and perfectly located in the heart of St. Petersburg. We stayed in both the standard and deluxe rooms, and both were excellent in terms of comfort and quality. The staff went above and beyond with their friendly and attentive service—always ready to help without being intrusive. What truly stands out is the location: everything you’d want to see—from historic landmarks to top-rated cafes and restaurants—is just a short walk away. Whether you're here for culture, food, or simply relaxation, this place makes it easy. The attention to detail and overall experience earned every point on the rating. A must-stay for anyone visiting the city.
