Moscow Hotel in St. Petersburg, Russia

[Mariria]

Moscow Hotel at Alexander Nevsky Metro

Big Hotel, over 700 rooms. Normal feel to westerners.
Open while under renovations in 2006-7.
A bit far from the Hermitage, near an hour walk down Nevsky, and maybe a few more bucks than some, but it is a lot less than the 5-star hotels.
Convenient to Metro, so you can get around quickly.
Several restaurants, many souvenir kiosks, you never have to leave the hotel.
A business center with only one internet computer, but it seems to be available most the time.

Mini-bowling downstairs,
a good post office for foreigners on the fifth floor

Comparison is more expensive than average

Been here 3 times now over the years. Overall good hotel with great location. The problem with this one is that the quality of rooms vary alot. The higher floor room you get the better. The 3rd floor for example is horrible. No view from windows, old run down dirty rooms, horrible heat in the corridors and rooms. The upper rooms however offer both great views as well as modern rooms and fuctioning air-conditioning. Why this is, I dont know. Also the breakfast is quite good but they used to have lot better tea than nowadays(Akbar, now Lipton).
