Alexander Hotel

Administrators/ Staff (especially Rustam) were very nice, polite and informative to us, added advantage being they can speak English.....breakfast meet our expectations....Hotel is clean and tidy....Location is also fine... only a 4- 5 mins walk to Sannaya Polschad/Sadovaya/Spasskaya metro station and you have the access to the entire city....There are also some good restaurants and departmental stores in the proximity.

The breakfast was strange and you can't really complain b/c its complimentary - great coffee and crepes but everything else was unappealing: caned meat, mediocre cheese, overcooked + cold eggs, fruit not quite ripe. The breakfast lady is comically sour and bitter. I think if they just served FRESH croissants from the bakery across the street and some fresh fruit and coffee this would be a better experience and less of a production. The reception staff is nice. The entrance is not inviting -needs upgrading and a paint job. The rooms are fabulous: spacious and historical. Double beds seem to be two single beds pushed together which is never comfortable. I wish they had true Queen or Double sized beds.The bath products are available but not of any level of quality. Bring your own soap, shampoo, conditioner. This hotel supplies filtered water which is wonderful to refill bottles.

The bathroom products need major improvement. The downstairs lobby needs a paint job and some style. Beds are two singles pushed together.

Everything was really awesome staff, location & room

only one problem I had in room was bed,the bed was attached so it was two beds being one big bed
