We arrived into St Petersburg on the overnight train from Moscow so were far too early to check-in. The staff were happy to hold our luggage for us while we found something to occupy our time for a few hours. Within 2 minutes of walking we stumbled into The Hermitage. We checked-in after lunch with no hassles. The room was... More

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Petro Palace. The rooms were simple and clean, the staff were very friendly and the location is perfect. More

This may be one of the worst hotels I have ever stayed in. We booked the Petro Palace because of the location, star rating and gym. Ignore all of the above except the faultless location. We arrived earlier than check in time and asked whether it was possible to check in early, we had experienced this in other Hotels during... More

It was commented enough about perfect location of the hotel.The rooms are also quite comfortable. Basically that's all I enjoyed there. The breakfast consisted of a sandwich from a supermarket and a cup of coffee or tea. Internet is available at the rooms only at extra fee (around 15 EUR per day), the gym and the swimming pool are small... More

As everybody obviously commented, the hotel is ideally located for visiting St. Petersburg main attractions on foot. A nice surprise was that during my stay (December 2011) a new metro stop opened just around the corner (Line 5, stop Admiralty -not sure if the spelling is correct). Even though the main attractions are in a walking distance, the underground public... More

Although the rooms and interior here are a bit dated, I thought the hotel was very well located and priced compared to others in St. Petersburg. You really can't beat the positioning in the city and the easy access to everything you want to see is just perfect. I went through a number of options on hotels before settling on... More

Stayed here for four nights. Great location right near main attractions of St Petes. Hotel is very old (as everything in Russia). The first room we were given had a strange noise coming from somewhere to the point where it was difficult to sleep so we were moved to another room. Rooms overall were Ok but fairly basic and they... More

The stay at the Petro Palace Hotel was flawless. Here's a summary: 1. Communication: Previous arrangements to be picked up at the airport in St. Petersburg through the concierge was flawless. A driver was waiting for us at the airport with a proper signage and a BIG welcome smile. All other questions that we had and previous communications with the... More

Stayed 5-9th December. Fantastic location, right across the road from St Issac's and walking distance to all major attractions. We had a deluxe room which was huge, could've slept another 3 people in the bed!! Balcony was an added bonus, double french doors opened over the main street with a stunning view of St Issac's- room 503. It's a shame... More
