We stayed on the 8th floor and the room was huge and clean. Room service was good and room even had a spa bath. Very Soviet feel. Staff were friendly and spoke a little English, enough to help us get around. The breakfast buffet was great. It is centrally located. The walls are thick and the room are quiet. Central ironing board on our floor. The only negative was the thin curtains which let a lot of light in making it difficult to sleep in the summertime. I would stay here again although I would check out the Hilton first.

We wanted to stay in one old soviet style hotel on our Trans-Siberian journey, and with limited hotel options in Perm, we chose the Ural, A clean, comfortable, well priced, and quiet stop, it's in a good location and included a varied breakfast and wifi. Access to wifi required a code texted to a phone, daily, which we were unable to secure; however, helpful staff were always available and obtained and passed along the code. We booked transfers and a tour in advance through Permturist travel, located on the 2nd floor of the Ural. From correspondence to pickup, Taissia efficiently handled all arrangements affording us a brilliant tour with an exceptionally knowledgeable guide and outstanding driver, to Perm-36 Gulag - Tour highly recommended!

The hotel is located in the centre of Perm, a 40 minute walk from the main railway station. The hotel has been refurbished and has a modern interior. Our room was large and comfortable and had a kettle for morning tea. The reception staff spoke English and were most helpful. Breakfast was excellent and the attentive chef provided fried eggs and pancakes to order. A travel bureau next to reception provides green and red line walking maps and excursions to Perm-36. Highly recommended.

Centrally located, walking distance from main sights. Decent size room and friendly staff. Low quality bed, rather uncomfortable. Tea and coffee available in the room but no water boiler? Also, the curtain was slightly smaller than the window, impossible to make the room dark at night during summer Overall good value for the money.
