Russian hotels have a style all their own. The rooms are often, but not exclusively, in a dated but clean soviet style. Beds are usually on the firm side and the hospitality can seem slightly cold compared to other countries. That being said, staying in a locally owned Russian hotel will give you insight into this massive and curious country. There are plenty of hotels to choose from here but you might have a bit of difficulty reading the names. If you make a reservation online be sure to print out the name and address of your hotel. You may need to install Russian scripts on your computer to do this.
