Matisov Domik

The rate per night is ok comparing to other hotels in the heart of the city that had rates a lot higher. However, one should weigh all con's and pro's before booking this hotel as there were quite a few negative moments (see below).

The hotel only has 1 room with aircon (sth to consider when traveling in the summer).Obviously, that room was taken.The service of some staff members is still that of the Soviet era.Very disappointing as many reviews on the website praise this hotel and its staff.If you're looking for breakfast included &expect scrambled eggs/orange juice/toast/etc. you won't find them in this hotel: their menu isn't for European guests to say the least (buckwheat and rice pudding for breakfast,no toast,pancakes every day).My husband hardly ate anything,only cornflakes.We asked the hotel for a transfer from Pulkovo I and were ripped off(1,200rub whereas the normal price is around 690rub depending on time of day).When we complained they didn't care.

Clear wide rooms, good brekfast.

Too far from metro. There are free bus from metro, but only at morning and in evening. Personel could be a little bit polite.

Relaxed friendly environment
