Guest Reviews

• ymurat0109 (10/5): The staff and the location of the hotel are so good - I stayed at this hotel 3 times, in August, September and November.I work as a manager in a department in the tourism sector in my own country, but the best thing for me in this hotel is the employees. the staff are really great and helpful.Especially Aleksandra and Alina, who work at the reception, work really devotedly and are very helpful, they tried to help me with everything every time I came to the hotel. One of the reasons why I chose this hotel is its friendly, helpful and dedicated staff.I would like to thank especially Aleksandra and Alina.If I briefly talk about the hotel The location of the hotel is nice. The river view is wonderful. Close to public transportation points to reach the city center.The hotel also has a pool, spa and parking.Wifi connection does not work very well everywhere except the lobby, in some rooms the wifi problem needs to be solved but you can use your own internet.Rooms are cleaned daily and the housekeeping staff are great too.In my opinion, the most negative part of the hotel is the restaurant. They are weak on food and need a stronger food menu and more delicious food. The most negative part for me was the food, but you can also buy food from outside.For me, the biggest plus of the hotel is its staff and location. I would definitely like you to see the river view.See you again when I visit Minsk city again. Take care Hotel Belarus family
• sirtopper (6/5): A good central location to begin a journey - I have stayed here before and it's a clean, safe bet for first trips to the capital. A (now) western level of comfort and all the services are there. Cafe and lobby bar have very affordable treats, for example. Breakfast is varied and decent, very efficiently cleared tables and topped-up food areas. The rooms are modern, clean and the views are likely the best in the capital - ask for a high floor. The only annoying things are the centrally controlled AC and only half-openable windows. The latter undertsndable, but still annoying for photos! Being an old Soviet hotel, you kinda have to expect the brown water - It's something I see a lot. But for lesser used rooms, housekeeping need to be going in and running the water for a good five minutes every now and then - to save guests getting a shock. For those unfamiliar with the region, it can be concerning. Book ahead for a better price. They'll take cash or card (Apple Pay/UK Visa Debit working at this time)
• SimonOConnor1 (10/5): Great Hotel - Great Hotel. Many aspects of the Hotel are 5 star - the Foyer, shops, reception, pool, restaurant, breakfast, King rooms, the views, Panoramic lift etc. Very friendly and helpful receptionists, barman, shop assistants whom were all very patient with a confused New Zealander haha. All spoke English. I learned a little Belarus but was afraid to use it ). Next time I will. Breakfast was a Belarus buffet which was great and interesting foods for breakfast. Far better than the conventional Western breakfast. The breakfast staff were most professional and helpful. Good security who were diligent and aware but still respectful. The pool staff were friendly, they have their rules and one had to obey )) The saunas are perfect. I had a King room, very large with interesting ornate furniture. Plus a veranda with brilliant views. Excellent bathroom. A friend stayed a night in a double room, smaller but looked perfectly adequate. Good cleaning staff that were most happy to help. Just a 200 metre short walk through beautiful gardens and over a river bridge to the main street. Galleria Mall restaurant Васiлькi top floor is worth a visit. Original Belarus setting and decor, and the Belarus food they serve is superb. I found Oktyabrskaya Street a lively nightlife area. Belarus people are most friendly and cultured. Plan to return in Winter for the snow. Excuse me if I say to much ) Simon
• Mikhail (8/5): Belarussian service - I arrived to the hotel at time when several other groups of tourists were awaiting their check-in. One lady only was available to sort out this. After half an hour in the que I was told they did not see me in the booking system due to that the hotel no longer offerred reservation via Hotels.com. After some waiting and calls to the booking department from the check-in desk finally I got my room. Overall hotel is fine and reasonable to stay for a short time.
• Suraj Karan singh (10/5): - The hotel is very comfortable neat and clean also at a good location, the staff is friendly and helpful. I would recommend this hotel anytime.
• Norbert (10/5): - Sehr leckeres und reichhaltiges Frühstücksbuffet, leider nur am ersten Tag eine Flasche Wasser auf dem Zimmer. Sauberes Zimmer, immer neue Handtücher.
• lelik90 (8/5): Belarus - Nice hotel and very friendly staff. The rooms are clean, cleaning is done daily.There was a beautiful view from the window on the 17th floor. There was not enough kettle in the room.The hotel also has a dining room, a restaurant with panoramic views and a swimming pool.
• Julija (10/5): Perfect stay - The stay was very nice. Bed was very comfortable and the room was very clean. Hotel staff were helpful and friendly. We would return.
• Enrique (2/5): - Very poor
• Marwan (8/5): - good place
• Ricordo (2/5): - Very poor
• Roof by roof (2/5): - Very poor
• Gordon (8/5): - One needs to be aware that there is no facility to make tea of coffee in the rooms. You need to go to a water dispenser near the lifts to get hot (or drinking) water. I find this strange for a 3 star hotel. Also ensure that you include breakfast in your booking. Otherwise you will have to pay another Euro 10 for breakfast.
• Roof By Roof (2/5): - Very poor service and I really pissed 😤 off.
• Devang (6/5): - Nothing spectacular. Ok hotel in a good central location
• Marwan (8/5): - Nice trip
• Pavel (10/5): - Hotel located in downtown, close to all attractions.
• Verified traveler (8/5): - It's hard for me to make a comparison to other Belarusian hotels. I can definitely recommend this one for other travelers. The only problem was that it wasn't possible to open the window.
• Efnan (8/5): - Het is een goed hotel zeker het geld waard alleen jammer dat z'n hotel geen airco in de kamer heeft wat het enige minpunt is.
• Sergei (10/5): - Good time
• Vitaly (6/5): There is some room for improvement - Overall quality of room is good. What I didn't like: 1) Wi-Fi isn't stable. Especially when connect a laptop, speed drops in 5 times, becomes very slow. But II needed it hardly for remote work. 2) Cleaning ladies didn't change the soap 3) Usually in such rooms there is some elementary kitchen stuff, such as kettle or so 4) Some little handy things, as "shoe spoon", were missing
• Larissa (10/5): - Excelon Location Close To Everything Beautiful Hotel Nice Breakfast I loved and Will Come backgen
• Jelena (6/5): Incompetent staff, quite run out rooms - Our check-in was horrifying, the girl was entering the passport info for ages, gave is a room that couldn’t lock so we asked for it to be fixed, but the room manager spoke no English. We were in a rush and just left the luggage at the reception, hoping to get normal room once we are back and then they asked for the passports again…
• Robert (8/5): - Die Zimmer in oberen Stockwerken haben einen guten Ausblick. Der Zustand der Zimmer ist im Mittelmaß und das Personal bemüht.
• jakubkM5965SI (2/5): Classic sh*tty postsoviet service by rude people. - First, instead of offering a room on the highest floor as requested for an extra payment, the receptionist booked us into a family room on the 8-th floor with windows that feel like military slabs. Next day kitchen workers were plain rude when we tried to approach food with them near by in the buffet. And as an icing on the cake the hotel was literally full with tons of sex tourists from Turkey.
• Thomas (8/5): Kingsize-Raum zu empfehlen - Ich hatte einen Kingsize-Raum und er war wirklich hervorragend! Großes Zimmer, extra Kastenraum und riesiges Badezimmer. Die Aussicht vom Balkon im 15.Stock war hervorragend. Das Frühstück war ok, nichts für Feinschmecker aber es sollte für jeden etwas passendes dabei sein. Der Hotelpool ist ok, es gibt auch 3 kleine finnische Saunen mit unterschiedlichen Temperaturen. Zu empfehlen ist das Panoramarestaurant im 22.Stock mit super Aussicht. Preislich für belarussische Verhältnisse etwas teuer, aber sehr gute Qualität und wie gesagt die Aussicht! Einziger Kritikpunkt ist, warum ist es beim Hoteleingang am Abend so dunkel? Bei der Ankunft beim Hotel scheint es so, als ob das Hotel geschlossen ist.
• Sergey (10/5): - Ok
• NIKOLAI (10/5): - Отличное расположение, чистый бассейн, приветливый персонал, во многих пожеланиях пошли навстречу. Удобное и комфортное место для отдыха при транзите.
• MIKHAIL (10/5): - Впечатления, очень приятные. Вежливый персонал. Личное Человеческое Спасибо Ирине (рецепшен). Чисто, тихо, удобно.
• ALEKSEY (8/5): отдых семейный 12-14 июня 2021 - Проживание - отлично, Питание - завтрак шведский стол - отлично. Очень корректный персонал. Обед в ресторане - 21 этаж - не соответствует ожидаемому. И по цене , и по качеству - ПЛОХО. Номер СЕМЕЙНЫЙ - фактически 3-х комнатный. Очень ХОРОШО. Чисто. Желательно положить МИНИ МЫЛО ( Диспенсеры не очень удобно). Мунус - ОЧЕНЬ прокурен холл на этаже, надо делать химическую чистку и ставить аэратор ( распылитель ) с "вкусным" запахом. Поправить кулер .И самое Не главное - придумать какую либо компенсацию за не работающий, но разрекламированный басейн ( акву зону ), а не просто "извините" не работает ( так не делается).
• VIKTORYIA (8/5): - Прекрасный вид на Минск и реку с балкона улучшенного номера. Чисто, полотенца меняют, но подлито мыло шампунь забывают.
• Jonathan (4/5): Stay somewhere else - Not nice service, huge parties on weekends until late at night
• JESSE E (10/5): Nice hotel in a good location - Nice hotel with a good location near the old town and Galleria mall. The hotel has one of the best hotel pools in the city (although the water slide wasn't working when we were there). There is also a water cooler in hallway, which I wish more hotels did. There is also a bar and cafe on the ground floor.
• Arta (8/5): Helt ok hotel - Hotellet är placerat på ett jätte fint läge , nära till allt. Allting är ok för den som inte har större krav på lux och glamour .... Städning sker varje dag .. men säng kläder bytts bara en gång i veckan . Frukosten är helt ok och lagom med allt
• Brian (10/5): - Really like the hotel. nice pool area. Love the hotel gym. I wish the suanas were bigger. Room was nice with a great view. Good breakfast. Turn the lobby lights on and give towels for the pool. everything else is nice.
• Brian (10/5): Great place - The hotel is clean. the higher rooms have good views on Minsk. Breakfast is good. GREAT hotel gym. nice pool area. The hotel needs to turn the damn lights on in the lobby and give extra towels for the pool. Other than that a great place to stay.
• Erik (6/5): Good views, okay hotel - The hotel is ok, but you will probably not meet any staff except when you check in. The lobby is unlit and dark, the rooms okay but nothing special. You will get a good view though. The nearest metro is 20 mites walk, but good parking facilities. The restaurant on the top floor: give it a miss. It is the worst steak I have had in my life - a dry overcooked lump of meat that was uneatable.
• Pavel (10/5): - Hotel Belarus is located in Downtown Minsk with walking distance to all attractions. Hotel has pool, top floor restaurant with scenic view of Minsk and casino. Hotel is good choice for family and business travels.
• Stefan (8/5): Ruhig und doch zentral - Renovierte Zimmer mit schönen Ausblick aus den oberen Etagen. Preis/Leistung ist angemessen.
• herve (8/5): - l'ensemble s'est bien passé
• Valeriia (8/5): - Отель нормальный для 3х звезд, в номере приличная мебель, не зачуханная, чисто. В одноместном номере (политика отеля) не полагается зубная щетка с пастой и почему то шампунь, кондиционер для волос и гель для душа в одной емкости, для меня это странно. Персонал вежливый, приятный и всегда готов помочь.
• Michael (8/5): - We upgraded to a suite and it was well worth it. At 62 USD it was one of our best deals ever.
• Jack (4/5): - They have hidden fees for check-in. As for example, the early check-in fee was the same as daily rate. I spend 36 $ for a night in a hotel and 35$ for 3 hours additional hours.
• Verified traveler (10/5): - All was good no problems they were on time Mendel Arkin
• Verified traveler (10/5): Good clean hotel in Minsk - Nice quality hotel. Good value and amenities, helpful staff and easy to get around. This hotel also has a good sauna area. Large hotel which sits on a hill overlooking Minsk. Clean, safe and historically interesting city. Minsk is one of the cleanest places we’ve seen in all of Europe and elsewhere.
• Paul (10/5): - Thank your for the quality of the team. The customer service was just perfect. And the knowledge of French from Sabrina was just perfect as a bilingual person. Thank you :)
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Clean room , good view, friendly staff, good price never get it from other hotels
• Ekaterina (8/5): - Все супер: номер, расположение, еда, чистота, удобно добираться до основных достопримечательностей! На ресепшене неприветливые девушки-хамки.
• Verified traveler (8/5): - Neuvostoaikaista nostalgiaa. Henkilökunnasta jotkut töykeitä.
• Stefan (8/5): - Hotell i bra skick med bra faciliteter. Utmärkt service och hjälpsam personal.
• Shane (10/5): - Very nice and modern
• Maurizio (8/5): Soggiorno positivo - Buon hotel con parecchi conforts, reception funzionale e personale quasi tutto disponibile. Colazione internazionale, ma un po' scarsa quella tipica italiana. Nel complesso un ottimo hotel in rapporto al prezzo. Lo consiglio.
• Geir (4/5): - Very bad service. When i lost my bankcsrd i had to transfer money to my other card. I asked if i could put 3 beer on my tab. But i could not. I never been treaten like thus in any hotle before.
• Verified traveler (8/5): - Grande struttura ben organizzata e pulita. Camera King veramente grande e perfetta. Personale reception troppo serio e poco social. Molto limitata la conoscenza dell'inglese , fuori dalla reception nessuno lo parlava. Ottima posizione , metro , supermercato e centro commerciale a pochi passi .
• Hasan (8/5): Süper - Şehir merkezine yakın mesafede..Manzara süper..
• Verified traveler (10/5): - No coffee machine or kettle in the room with jacuzzi... Good service but needs some improvements.
• Elena (6/5): фэйс-контроль обязателен! - отель хорошо отремонтирован, номер соответствует 3 зв.отелю. неприятное впечатление от посещения бассейна, дежурная при входе в бассейн Наталья Анатольевна К. очень важная персона,практически таможенник, которая не поверила, что я живу в отеле по ключу. Проверять фамилию по номеру она не захотела, ее обманывают. И меня, пенсионерку, профессора, в резиновых тапочках отправила за бумажкой в номер на 12 этаж, чтобы поставить в ней запись - 1 чел. Настроение было испорчено. На след. день меня пустили без всяких бумажек, доверием и с уважением. В 5 зв. отеле ( я останавливалась накануне в отеле Пекин в Минске) в бассейн пускали без всяких проблем и строгих проверок. А В 3 звездах - фэйс-контроль, вдруг в довольно плохо убранный в раздевалке и в парилках водный центр кто-то прорвется в резиновых тапочках! Надеюсь, что будет проведена беседа с сотрудником-"цербером". Никому не порекомендую этот отель. Наведите порядок. пожалуйста.
• George (10/5): - Excellent living conditions, price and location. Perfect service, good breakfast.
• Verified traveler (2/5): - The property is outdated and desperately in need of an update. Don't expect to get any sleep; the bar's open to 5am, playing loud music and all night long...
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Wonderful location, waterpark and saunas downstairs, pleasant and helpful stuff.
• Verified traveler (6/5): - The staff at the hotel were pleasant. Unfortunately, Minsk is a very spread out, green city. It was not really possible to walk anywhere from this hotel, so it looks like the hotel is centrally located but it's a 20 minute walk to the nearest shop. I also was surprised that guests have to pay extra to use the pool and the gym (guests are allowed one free hour between 7 and 1pm). The breakfast was fine and the coffee excellent. Next visit to Minsk, the cleanest city in Europe, I'll stay next to freedom Square. Thanks to the really nice lady who checked me in.
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Good , clean, quiet, well located Close to park ..
• Tim (10/5): - All-round good hotel. Quiet rooms with air-con and freshwater tubs close by. Quick and easy check-in too
• Verified traveler (2/5): - There is no air conditioning and the windows only open a small crack so it is HOT. Rooms are tiny, and I was given a smaller room than I paid for but they refused to move me. Staff made rude comments to my friend. I left after the first night because it makes the Red Roof Inn look luxurious. Paid upfront for 6 nights but they only refunded me for 3. The nicest thing I can say about the Belarus Hotel is that at least I didn’t get bedbugs.
• Verified traveler (8/5): - My only point is that information regarding faculties at the hotel upon reception was non existent. It was a matter of check in and find out everything else for yourself. It was not a welcoming experience. I do not say this as a criticism as I enjoyed my stay at the Belarus Hotel but an area which could be improved.
• Verified traveler (10/5): - I really liked the look and feel of this hotel, and it was the perfect way to start my trip in Belarus. The room was nice and modern (despite the outwards appearance of the hotel), and the hotel facilities were great. The location is great too, as it is within walking distance of the city centre (though it is a bit further to the train/bus station). I was a little disappointed by the breakfast, which I found rather expensive at ~£8.50 and I personally found some of the food inedible, so I only ate here once during my three night stay. The pool/spa facilities were nice to have, though there is a charge for using these. Staff were generally nice and spoke decent English. Would stay here again if I go back to Minsk.
• Richard (10/5): Best value - Excellent value. Incredibly clean. Decent location
• Glenn (8/5): An interesting mix of Soviet meets Western. - This hotel looks very communist and in many ways it still is with stern receptionists, lots of paperwork at check-in and a ridiculous rule that the pool is only free for guests up to 13.00. Guests should be free ALL the time! The view from my room on the 10th floor was great and the room itself was small but fine (although it did stink of stale cigarette smoke). The bar on the 6th floor was a disappointment as it was closed when it should have been open. Still not a bad hotel and better than many of the other communist dating hotels in Minsk.
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Staff was very friendly and for me treated like a very important person. I am an American thought it was a great hotel
• Tony (10/5): Nice hotel - Far from the airport but walking distance to the city center.
• Christopher (10/5): Minsk & Borisov City Tour 2019. - Lovely City to visit, people friendly plenty to see and cheap eats and drinks. Would recommend a city break to Minsk.
• Lars (8/5): Cheers - Lobby bar excellent!!
• Evgeny (10/5): Ок - Хорошее сочетание цена-качество. Чисто. Завтрак просто отличный.
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Good price, good location next to the park. Decent breakfast
• Verified traveler (8/5): - The room was ok. The restaurant on the first floor only had one plate from the whole menu so I went to the bar on 6 floor, they told me they had all menu so I ordered chicken amd fries what for my surprise was already made and heated on the microwave in two minutes.
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Great location. All you need is on site: restaurants, bars, indoor pool, saunas, 24/7 currency exchange. Everyone is very helpful. Room is clean and quiet luxurious ( had a suite ). Overall one of the best hotels I have been to.
• David (10/5): - Great hotel for the price and location would stay there again
• QASEM (6/5): - Reception not speak English very well And only elxandra who smile Others hard to even smiling
• Verified traveler (8/5): - Great location, easy to commute, quiet area and good value.
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Nice hotel nice panoramic restaurant on 22 second floor. Also excellent massage dept.
• Barbie (8/5): - Hotel was very clean! Staff very regimented. Rooms were comfortable but bed was low and room was on the warm side. No shampoo, conditioner or lotion and no tissues. Breakfast- coffee was delicious great selection but gets very crowded around 8:00am.
• Barbie (8/5): - Great and Beautiful Location! I would definitely stay here again!
• Verified traveler (8/5): - Everything was perfect except the room it was small I did not feel comfortable .I tried to change but none available.
• Andrew (10/5): Great location - Fantastic City. Plenty to do. Great shops, historical buildings, advertisements for forthcoming events. Wise pavements with no overcrowding at peak times.
• Jackie (8/5): - Nice hotel close to the historical plaza of Minsk - Nemiga.
• Nicholas (10/5): Excellent choice - Lovely hotel, very large comfortable room with small balcony. Staff very nice and spoke good English. 10 min walk to centre
• Hudson (8/5): Wonderful location and good value! - The hotel has some great views of Minsk and is an easy walk to downtown with pleasant scenery. I enjoyed my stay expect that there was no air-conditioning and Minsk was having a hot spell while I was there so sleeping was a little uncomfortable. The dining room was very tired but there was lots of choice and the food was quite okay. The restaurant attached to the hotel near the entrance was limited but good value for the money. Plus it had nice cold beer at a very reasonable price. I'd look at staying again but not in mid summer with lack of air-conditioning.
• Verified traveler (6/5): - Very hot weather in Minsk with no a/c in room all lights in hallway and room on sensor mode which unpleasant both issues making the stay unpleasant so had to change hotel
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Nice hotel, with a great view from the restaurant.
• Andy (10/5): - My favourite hotel in Minsk. I will be staying there again however it would of been nice if my room had air conditioning
• Verified traveler (8/5): - Good hotel
• AHMED (2/5): Good local area. - Not so amazing but is ok for short stay.
• Verified traveler (8/5): Iconic hotel - Lovely hotel, rooms and clean and well kept. The views are amazing and you are central for everything. This is the old Soviet Government hotel and it is an interesting history. There is also a good gym.
• Ka Wai (10/5): Nice Hotel - Nice service, english is very good.
• Verified traveler (8/5): Clean hotel, comfortable bed with a nice breakfast - Amazing hotel in the nice parkland area.
• Stuart (8/5): - Good traditional style hotel with modern fixtures and fittings. Checkin process takes a long time.
• barry (10/5): Very enjpyable stay at Hotel Belarus - I had never been to Belarus before and did not know what to expect. The staff at the hotel were very friendly and helpful and the amenities were spot on. The local area was exceptionally clean and very scenic. The price was less than I would have expected and I would not hesitate in recommending Hotel Belarus to anyone.
• Maria Polowinkin (8/5): Minsk Getaway - Belarus Hotel was a perfect choice. It's not too far from the center of Minsk, yet it was centrally located. Every hotel room had a nice view of the city. The hotel also served a great all-you-can-eat breakfast. In addition, the tours we booked in and around Minsk originated at the Belarus Hotel, so the hotel met our expectations.
• Larisa (10/5): Nice hotel , - Rooms clean and tidy , Staff helpful , Food excellent , Only problem I had was room had no Air conditioning and had to leave window open over night , Was a lot of noise and music from outside and was difficult to sleep even from 14th floor ..
• Neil (10/5): An adventure in Minsk - Excellent hotel with indoor swimming pool and sauna, and with great views from the upper floors, located in a park, which is great for trips to the lakes & museums - but is quite a long walk from the city center where most of the restaurants are, although the taxis are pretty cheap. Don't worry about the food at restaurants, they serve just about everything you could think of, just about all menus are in English, with pics of the dish. Make sure you do the red bus tour!
