An absolutely marvellous hotel featuring the very best in what most hotels behind the former Iron Curtain gave up years ago. Still slightly struggling to come to terms with the 21st century, the staff are at least very friendly and most of them now speak good English. The rooms come in a number of different classes to suit all tastes and pockets, with the ones high up in the building boasting beautiful views of the river and city spread out below. Wireless internet is available throughout the building and the breakfast, served inside a gorgeous room complete with brightly coloured Socialist Realist ceramic art, is ample. Recommended.

  I stayed here during my latest visit to Minsk. The rooms are nice and clean, and have a wonderful panoramic view over the Svislach River (I would recommend this hotel from the view alone). Good service in the reception (which spoke English).If you were visiting Minsk as a tourist, I would recommend this hotel due to its price and location. It is in walking distance (about 20-25 minutes) to the city center and only 10-15 minutes on foot to the nearest metro station (Nemiga).
