Stayed here with my husband for 3 nights. Taxi driver couldn't find the entrance as he was convinced it was 'a museum and not a hotel'. We eventually found it on foot after dragging our suitcases a few hundred yards through 4 foot of snow! Arrived to cheery reception staff who spoke excellent English. Gave us our room key, went...

As other reviewers have noted this is a hotel built in a refurbished palace. The decor reflects the old palace decor with decently sized ornate rooms with very comfortable beds, wardrobe with safe and TV. The bathrooms are large as well and around odern than the rooms.

I thought the lobby was weird and not of the same standard as the room and the breakfast place, it was like one of those typical places you find a lot in moscow where you are not... More

When the cab driver pulled up in front of the hotel we all said "is this it?" It is an actual palace built by the archetic of Catherine the Great. It had only been open for a few months as a hotel.
