Herzen House

Excellent location in Admiralty district. Very walkable distances to major St. Petersburg sites. Hotel staff were helpful. Good value for money in a city that is one of the major tourist destinations.

Breakfast was not inspiring. No egg dish available other than a pre-made piece of wall paper paste. Choices limited.

Great location friendly staff

Location

We were in St. Petersburg during the White Nights and run up to the Scarlet Sails festival so the whole place was very busy. Herzen House, although situated on a main road was an oasis of calm and quiet. The hotel is on the top floor of a 4 storey building with the ground floor being occupied by 2 good restaurants and floors 2 and 2 belonging to a Comfort hotel. Great location, most of the major attractions are within walking distance, and for those that aren't, the metro is 2 minutes away. The staff were most helpful, even assisting us to print off attraction tickets at no extra charge. Our room, although small was spotlessly clean and had all the amenities needed for a comfortable stay. No tea making facilities, but hot and cold drinks were available 24hrs in the breakfast room. Breakfast (0800-1100) was simple but adequate with good quality ingredients. If we were to stay in St. Petersburg again, we would definitely choose Herzen House.

WiFi was a bit patchy. Tea making facilities did run out later at night
