The resort is located right at the seashore and has a nicely landscaped territory with a lot of benches and children’s playground. There are things to explore close by, including Repin’s museum. Parking is available. The swimming pool is a huge plus: it is clean and well-maintained. Even though the weather was chilly and guests tend to use it a lot, it did not feel overcrowded. There is a special tub for toddles. Buffet breakfast and lunch are acceptable. Housekeeping dissapointed since it was limited to emptying trash bins and making beds.

If you're in Repino, this is a decent enough hotel... but it was not a stress-free experience. Stayed here for three-or-so weeks but was made to change rooms on numerous occasions. The reception desk was friendly, but there was regularly a language barrier. Food improved as the stay wore on. It is not far away from being really good.

Sestroretsk is a very nice natural resort. It`s very calm and beautiful. You will find all kinds of winter entertainment there: skiing, skating, sauna and simply enjoyable walks around local forests. I was twice here and recommend booking a small cottage but you can also find nice apartments in hotels and resort houses there.This is not the best Cronwell Park Hotel I have stayed in but the staff is friendly and food is ok.
