Hours of research confirmed what all the guidebooks told me: budget hotel options are scarce in Moscow. The trade-off between value and location is generally grim. Yet so long as there is a Kitay-Gorod Hotel, travelers and tourists will have at least one sub-$500 option withing a short walking distance of Red Square. Conveniently located right at the entrance to... More

This hotel is small but really well located, only 10-15 minute walk to the main sights and right beside a metro stop. The staff were pleasant and happy to help. Rooms basic but gas everything you needed my bed was a little uncomfortable but I could live with it. The hotel could benefit from a bigger sign outside, taxis found... More

A small hotel in an excellent location, just 10 minutes walk from Red Square. Friendly and efficient staff. Rooms were clean and pleasant, with a nice bathroom and good towels and sheets . No noise from the street and warm and cosy. Breakfast was ok, but nothing special. Good value for money.

Hotel for short rest and for work-travelers. Nice situation, but so small rooms for 1 person. Near the underground station "Kitay-Gorod". Some good cafes around. Hotel is non-smoking and it's so good.

The room was clean usual noise from the toilet pump, shower was good so no complaints.... More

Spacious room, clean sheets and clean bathroom, although shower doesn't drain out quick enough. Toilet has a very noisy pump 7 mins walk from st basil's end of the red square. Good breakfast spread It is expensive, but I don't... More

One of the best spots around Moscow. Just 5' walking from Red Square, really close to bars, restaurants and clubs. Rooms small but clean. Bathroom ok. Only problem with the noise - the walls are really transparent. Heating also ok. Breakfast just fine. Price is really good for Moscow.
