“Goo hotel for business stay”

I had business trip and this hotel was nearby. Its really quiet place, good and friendly staff. Room (comfort for one people) was clean, space and quiet. Breakast was so-so. I had amazing view of the Ostankino television tower.

“You get what you pay for!”

I loved my visit to Russia, being in Moscow for the first timed seemed very challenging with the metro and getting around. I have to admit this hotel was very hard to find at first.

I loved my visit to Russia, being in Moscow for the first timed seemed very challenging with the metro and getting around. I have to admit this hotel was very hard to find at first. Its about a 15-20 walk to the metro. BUT, it is in a very beautiful area near the metro. The hotel room had a very small bed, the shower head broke off, and the room was not amazing. But for the price I would stay again. I need a hotel to sleep and have some fun with the girlfriend, and the security guard was a super nice guy. Needless to say I didn't pay for the shower head and I suggest you do not move it down when showering. Staff.... some were nice some where not. Receptionists seem to work 20 hours days so who can blame them. All in all, Moscow is a super expensive city, for the price you cant beat that location and decent view. Plus it has air-conditioning. I recommend!

“clean hotel, language is a problem, only Russian most of the time.”

We had a double room, with another room next to us,with one main door to the corridor. This meant the small bathroom and toilet had to be shared. If you are a family and rent both rooms then this is fine. We were lucky that during our 6 days stays we were alone.

“A quiet stay in a moderate Hotel”

The hotel does lack the posh look, but has all the required facilities. We stayed in a Junior Suite. This contains 2 rooms - one a bedroom, the other a TV/ living room which could also be used for sleeping by converting the settee into a low bed.

The hotel does lack the posh look, but has all the required facilities. We stayed in a Junior Suite. This contains 2 rooms - one a bedroom, the other a TV/ living room which could also be used for sleeping by converting the settee into a low bed. The heating is quite effective during cold weather. Free WIFI in the room. There is a small shop within the hotel premises, which sells water, biscuits, packeted sandwiches and a few essentials. This is a big advantage, since other supermarkets may be some distance away. The hotel is located very close to the Ostankino Tower in the North Eastern Suburbs of Moscow. One could see the Tower from the room. If you have not pre-booked your taxi, the cheapest and safest method is to book one at the Taxi counter if you are arriving at Domidedovo Airport. The fixed fare is 1,800 Rubles. Beware of touts who offer taxis and hotels at the arrivals hall of the airport. Zavsdnaya Hotel is located about 60 Kms from Domodedovo Airport. The journey takes about 1 hour, but could take longer during heavy traffic. The hotel has a restaurant cum pub too. This is where the breakfast is served. It's a decent breakfast, but non-meat eaters may find the choice very limited. The English knowledge of the staff at the Reception and Restaurant is extremely limited. Showing them the Russian translation of English words, helps you get what you need. If you need to do some shopping or eat something, the option we found was to do a 15 minute walk to Ashan City Mall. This has food court with McDonalds, KFC, Burger King, and a few other restaurants. Has shops selling international and Russian brands of clothing, and personal effects. Even at the mall, It's extremely difficult to communicate even a few words in English. A Taxi could be booked at the Reception to travel to the Airport. Fare 1,800 Rubles.
