Malachite Congress Hotel

It's very noticeably hotel owners did lot of work to remove old USSR building atmosphere. Room is pretty good and clean. Perfect location.

Bathroom isn't pretty, like other part of room. Pipes to shower and sink mixer are noisy. Bed is good for sleep, but not so good for "other" things :)

Nice room, good decor, comfy bed, extra unassembling bed, good city view, warm with good heating, adequate bathroom with necessary amenities, friendly and helpful reception.

One member of the staff was rude when asked to literally "go away" when we entered the restaurant that was apparently booked for a private banquette. Restaurant Gzhel didn't work anytime after breakfast which was very bizarre. The walls are very thin between rooms as our neighbors could hear us talking and listening music, so we had to go out elsewhere. Upstairs cafe at the floor 5 is equal to a Soviet-style canteen which I found not to be quite suitable for the 4-star hotel. The security guards look threatening and not safeguarding, need some training on how to welcome the guests, as they are, after all, the guests.
