Summary: Room was amazing, very comfortable and the view was incredible. Only a few minor cons. The laundry service is very expensive, the building is on centralized air and in winter won’t allow you to go below 23*C so the room got quite warm, and the bellhops did not offer any help with the luggage on check in (only appearing after a suitcase got caught in the revolving door and I had to press the emergency stop).

Summary: No cleanup 3 2/4 days. No soap at soap dispenser. Smell of sewer. Bad attitude of front office. Shameful 3rd bed for the 3rd person. Lies about “do not disturb” sign.

Claudio Nov 25, 2025 07:21:25 PM
Summary: The hotel building form the outside takes you to the memories of the soviet time but once you get inside you can feel the warmth and elegance of a nice 5 star hotel The staff is friendly and helpful My room and all the floor I guess it was recently refurbished was new, elegant, clean and comfortable The only negative aspect it was the hanger for the clothes and the lack of a closet Price very low for the quality of this hotel I will come back again

Jacob Nov 19, 2025 08:09:32 PM
Summary: A hotel that tries to be top notch, but doesn’t quite make it. Great service minded staff that helped without hesitation. The hotel is quite dated and the panels to regulate lighting and temperature are quite confusing. The phone in my room also didn’t work.
