The room is big, with very confortable bed and matress. It has a big bathrom and good shower. the breakfast is very good too, and the staff vvery nice and attentive. There are some odd choices for such a new and nice building: it appears that there is not an elevator (not a problem for us even if we stayed in the 3rd floor, but may be a problem to someone with mobility difficulties). Also the blackout curtains do not cover the whole windows wide, so there is always light in the early morning. The location is on the eurpean/Russian part of the town, wich means very nice sidewalks and good restaurants, but also thar you have to walk a little more to the attractions, or maybe use a taxi. We did not regret chosing this area. Over all, we had a very confortable experience and would stay here again ##### Luis Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Kyoko Jul 3, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities 朝食は種類が多い。新市街の住宅街にあり静かです。 ##### Kyoko Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2025 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [The LaSalle Chicago, Autograph Collection by Marriott](https://www.expedia.ca/Chicago-Hotels-The-LaSalle-Chicago.h71000217.Hotel-Information) > > [Athenaeum Grand Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Athens-Hotels-Athenaeum-Grand-Hotel.h18460618.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Ami - Orso Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Paris-Hotels-Hotel-Ami-Orso-Hotel.h119410.Hotel-Information) > > [Galatia Villas](https://www.expedia.ca/Santorini-Hotels-Galatia-Villas.h1718970.Hotel-Information) > > [Cocoon Maldives](https://www.expedia.ca/Ookolhufinolhu-Hotels-Cocoon-Maldives.h15440435.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Saranac Curio Collection By Hilton](https://www.expedia.ca/Lake-Placid-Hotels-Hotel-Saranac-Curio-Collection-By-Hilton.h16817106.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Lake Louise](https://www.expedia.ca/Lake-Louise-Hotels.d10115.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [All Inclusive Resorts and Hotels in Caribbean](https://www.expedia.ca/Destinations-In-Caribbean-All-Inclusive-Hotel.0-0-d6022969-tAllInclusiveHotel.Hotel-Filter-Destinations) > > [Holiday Inn Express Airport-Calgary by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Calgary-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Airport-Calgary.h1705884.Hotel-Information) > > [whala!bavaro](https://www.expedia.ca/Punta-Cana-Hotels-Whalabavaro-All-Inclusive.h1550498.Hotel-Information) > > [All Inclusive Resorts and Hotels in Athens](https://www.expedia.ca/Athens-Hotels-All-Inclusive-Hotel.0-0-d178231-tAllInclusiveHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) ### Flights > [Flights from Tofino, BC (YAZ-Long Beach) to Nanaimo, BC (YCD)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yaz/ycd/tofino-to-nanaimo) > > [Flights from Toronto, ON (YYZ-Pearson Intl.) to Tokyo (TYO-All Airports)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/tyo/toronto-to-tokyo) > > [Flights from Buffalo (BUF) to Pittsburgh (PIT)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/buf/pit/buffalo-to-pittsburgh) > > [Flights from regina intl airport](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/airports/yqr/flights-from-regina-intl-airport) > > [Flights from lethbridge county airport](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/airports/yql/flights-from-lethbridge-county-airport) > > [Flights from Toronto (YTZ) to North Bay (YYB)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/ytz/yyb/toronto-to-north-bay) > > [Air Canada Richmond (YVR) to New Delhi (DEL) flights](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flight-routes/air-canada-from-vancouver-intl-to-indira-gandhi-intl/ac/yvr/del) > > [Flights from Edmonton International Airport (YEG) to Winnipeg (YWG)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yeg/ywg/edmonton-to-winnipeg) > > [Flights from Calgary (YYC) to Mississauga (YYZ)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyc/yyz/calgary-to-toronto) > > [Flights from Mississauga (YYZ) to Orlando (MCO)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/mco/toronto-to-orlando) > > [Flights from Ferno (MXP) to Dorval (YUL)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/mxp/yul/milan-to-montreal) ### Cars ### Cruise ### Packages > [All inclusive vacations](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/theme-vacations/all-inclusive-vacations)
