The 10 best Specialty lodgings in Northwestern District, Russia

May 10, 2023 Florencio Paulino

Russia’s historic gateway to Western Europe, the North-West is home to St. Petersburg, the country’s capital until the early 18th century. A very large area bordering Finland, Estonia, Latvia and Belarus in the west (as well as Kaliningrad, the little extra slice of Russia that lies between Lithuania and Poland), North-West Russia stretches in the east to the Ural Mountains. A large number of Russia’s national parks are here, as well as the historically significant areas of Novgorod and Karelia.

Friends by the House of Books

Hotel 'Friends by the House of Books' is located in a historic building, next to the famous Zinger House. Virtually, all the most beautiful and interesting places of St. Petersburg are within walking distance. The hotel occupies the fifth and sixth (attic) floors of the building located on the Griboedov Canal, 19. Unfortunately, at present time there’s a need to climb the stairs on foot. On the lower floor of the hotel there is a reception desk and a living room with a kitchen corner, and on the top floor - a living room with the colorful wall, which shows cartoon and fairy tales characters and a panoramic window. The interiors of the hotel mainly made of wood. The walls are covered with wallpaper. The color scheme creates a feeling of warmth and comfort. Most rooms have access to shared facilities located on each floor.

A must visit: Bookstore (Dom Knigi)

Reviewed By TJamal

This bookstore is located on Nevsky, located on a corner very visible. You will see on the window Singer cafe this is the bookstore. Lower level books in Russian, main level books in various languages, souvenirs, largest assortment of post cards, calendars, stationary items, and decorative chocolates that can be given as gifts. The second level has a cafe and books. The bookstore closes at midnight, so after sightseeing for the day this is a fun place to visit. It’s easy to find a beautiful building see the picture, and you’ll notice it immediately. During our stay in St. Petersburgh I would visit this bookstore daily. They do charge for their bags, and most of my souvenirs were purchased at this bookstore. I noticed the souvenir books purchased in the museums were cheaper at this bookstore.

Belveder Nevsky Business Hotel

Mixed impressions

Reviewed By mistereezy

Pros: location, absolutely. Rooms are clean, furniture cheap but new. Excellent breakfast. Cons: The hotel is located inside a business centre: there is no lobby, no lobbybar, no rest area. The reception ladies are not trained to be customer-oriented. They seem to be fired from a soviet theatre and hired at this hotel, all of them. Talking to customers as if we are a disturbance to their vacation. Never told me there is a minibar in the room: I never even imagined there was one but they asked if I used it at checkout. Keys get demagnetized, customer is to blaim, of course. Unfriendly attitude in general. Aircon never gets cleaned: you can feel strange odor every time you switch it on. Complained, was told that a technician ''will see it on Monday" but I left on Sunday. Amenities really cheap. Toilet paper: two rolls for three days for two people. Bedside lamp burnt out: complained by email, email receives by reception (they confirmed), never got a reply, never fixed.

Great different hotel, great staff, excellent breakfast. The rooms are comfort enough and big but the look is so cool! Our room had 2 beautiful windows to the street, but is a very quiet street. Only you have to walk a bit to the metro. But is 10 minutes to the main train station and 15 to the center.

Hidden from the hustle and bustle of the city, Eco Home is a perfect retreat next to a lake surrounded by forests, yet easily reachable both from Murmansk (12 km South of the city center) and Murmashi airport (20 km). You are offered to stay at any of the five wooden cottage-houses made entirely from eco-friendly materials.

A small hotel located in the center of the old part of Cherepovets

Reviewed By Alexander_Kudrin

A small hotel and cafe are located in the center of the old part of Cherepovets. Large reception. My room was on the ground floor, small in size. There is a bedside socket, the work table has two sockets. There is a Wi-Fi, average in speed. Breakfast is modest, but you can fill up. Two types of cold cuts, cheese, boiled eggs, oatmeal or millet porridge. There are also two types of juice, tea and brewed coffee. The staff tries to help in every possible way, tells and shows what is where. Conference hall on the second floor. Overall, not bad. Measures to prevent the spread of COVID-19: thermometry at the entrance - no, the requirement to maintain social distance, wear a mask, hand sanitizers on the tables, employees in masks. If the review was helpful to you, please like it!
