Guest Reviews

• Jean Jacques (8/5): Très bon petit hôtel - Chambres avec beaucoup de charme et personnel extrêmement sympathique. L’hôtel est situé au 4 eme étage d’un . Immeuble ancien aux parties communes mal entretenues mais une fois dedans c’est magnifique.
• Alena (10/5): Атмосферный отель в сердце Петербурга - Атмосферная гостиница в самом сердце Петербурга. Продумано всё до мелочей. Пребывание было комфортным и очень приятным. Обслуживание внимательное, администратор выше всяких похвал. Вкусный завтрак. Обязательно буду рассматривать это место для следующего проживания в СПб
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Overall experience at Metropolis hotel was amazing - fabulous location, quite a spacious room (if you compare with other properties offering accommodation in this area), well designed interior to let you get immersed in the long bygone epoque. Lovely personnel at the reception ready to help with any issue and breakfast served in the room made my heart melt.
• Igor (10/5): Nice place - Wonderful location, stylish room, friendly service
• GALINA (10/5): Мы снова сюда вернемся - Мне очень понравился отель. Он расположен в старом доме в начале Невского проспекта. Каждый номер в этом отеле неповторим и посвящен писателю или композитору. Нам достались "Гоголь" и "Толстой". Мы чувствуем атмосферу того времени. Фотографии, подбор мебели, светильники, потолок и обои - все работает на создание выбранного образа. Можно взять в ящике старый том произведений Гоголя, полистать страницы, зачитаться. Или смотреть в окно на движение троллейбусов, почему-то совсем нешумное. Или на крыши. При этом номер, конечно, оборудован современными удобствами. Хотелось бы отметить, что номер просторный.
• Alexander (10/5): Номера искусств - Великолепное место! В ста шагах (именно шагах!) от Адмиралтейства и Дворцовой площади, буквально за углом неплохие кафе для завтрака и метро Адмиралтейская. Всегда есть каршеринг рядом (правда, в будние дни бывает заставлен вторым рядом). Контрастные номера (нам достался Чехов, по мотивам произведения «Вишнёвый сад»). Единственное, чего хотелось бы добавить в номер - пакетиков с кофе, но это мелочи :) прекрасное место, после остановки в котором предоставляют скидку на последующие посещения и не только в «Метрополисе», но и в гостинице-партнёре. Дружелюбный «экипаж» гостиницы - ресепшен доступен 24/7 и всегда пойдут на встречу, помогут решить вопросы, расскажут как и куда добраться. По выезду - разрешают оставить чемоданы и сумки в хранилище до отбытия. Отдельная радость - старый, аутентичный лифт здания. Крохотный, гремучий, но такой уютный и прям ленинградский!
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Останавливались в этом отеле с 11 по 13 марта 2020. Отель очень понравился. Расположение отличное: на Невском проспекте, напротив Дворцовой площади (Эрмитаж). Все достопримечательности в шаговой доступности. Рядом очень много ресторанов и кафе. Возле отеля автобусная остановка, что тоже оказалось очень удобным, так как можно доехать на автобусе номер 7 до вокзала и от вокзала до отеля. В отеле очень чисто, уборка отличная, сотрудники очень доброжелательные. Для маленького бюджетного отеля довольно большая ванная комната в номере, хорошее освещение. Окна одних номеров выходят на Невский проспект других во двор. У нас окна выходили на Невский проспект, нам это понравилось за исключением того, что окна открыть было не возможно, так как ОЧЕНЬ шумно, а при закрытом окне душновато. Так что в следующий раз планируем либо остановиться в номере с окнами во двор, либо пользоваться кондиционером ))).
• Verified traveler (8/5): - Huone hyvin siisti ja raikas, ei melua naapureista tai ulkoa. Rappukäytävässä todella voimakas homeen haju,käveltiin huivi kasvoilla portaikossa.
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Great position across the road from the Hermitage, huge imaginatively decorated room, lovely low-key staff. Only slight drawback - we arrived very early in the morning and there was no one on duty, so we couldn't get into the hotel until the next day (we should have warned them in advance). Breakfasts a little strange - imaginative, nicely presented but, to western europeans, just a bit weird.
• Sylvie (8/5): Chambre très agréable et très spacieuse - Chambre très agréable. Bravo au décorateur. La chambre donnait sur la rue donc un peu bruyant. Un petit problème avec la dimension de la couette qui fait juste la dimension du lit. Il ne faut pas être trop gros, ni trop grand. Eviter de prendre le service transport aéroport hôtel directement avec Métropolis car nous avons payé 2000 rouble à l'hôtel. Alors que pour le retour, le chauffeur que nous avions demandé à l'hôtel, nous a pris 523 roubles. Ou est l'erreur !!!!! C'est vrai que l'entrée de l'immeuble et l'ascenseur ne sont pas top mais lorsqu'on arrive dans l'hôtel, on oublie vite.
• Khamon (10/5): Un hôtel hors du commun avenue Nevski ! Royal ! - Extrêmement bien situé, tout est à portée, transports, monuments, commerces, restaurants... Le personnel très sympathique parle anglais et à l'écoute de vos besoins, les chambres originales et très propres. Les petits déjeuners servis en chambre sont un plus non negligeable mais le choix est plus limité du coup, pas de jus de fruit inclus, c'est en supplément et un seul café inclu également, le prix est de 430 roubles. Petit bémol, l'ascenseur est inquiétant mais comme monte charge c'est parfait ! L'hôtel se cache dans un immeuble, on se croierait chez des amis, ça donne à cet hôtel un côté insolite ! Allez y les yeux fermés, situé dans l'avenue Nevski, il est très facile d'accès et surtout au calme. Le chauffage est bien adapté, au top !
• Napon (10/5): The best - This hotel is one of the best that i ever experienced
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Great location! I had a large room with a bath, nice decoration and very clean. Great value for money.
• SVETLANA (10/5): - Атмосферно, именно то , что лично я жду от Питера - парадная, лифт, мебель под старину - просто экзотика в захватившей мир современности.
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Emplacement génial Personnel super Propreté confort originalité... Petits déjeuners individualisés (choix possibles) Même l’ascenseur est à voir 👍
• Carolina (10/5): Ubicación excepcional - El hotel está en un lugar excepcional. La habitación era amplia, bonita y estaba limpia aunque la cama podía ser más cómoda. Yo desayuné dos días en la habitación y ninguno de los día me gustó el desayuno, por lo que no recomiendo contratar los desayunos por adelantado, pues en las inmediaciones hay muchos lugares donde desayunar. El personal fue muy amable.
• Makoto (10/5): よかったです - ビルの中の４Fなので見つけにくいですが、フロントの女性はみんな笑顔で親切で、部屋も清潔で広かったです。エルミタージュ美術館のすぐ近くなので観光にも便利です。
• Klaus (10/5): Fint Hyggeligt hotel perfekt til parophold - Fint lille hyggeligt hotel. Venlig og hjælpsom personale. Hotel lige i centrum hvor det sker.
• H.W. (8/5): - Sehr gute Lage in der Nähe der Eremitage am Anfang des Nevskys. Nur 2 Minuten zur Metro. Zimmer lag zum Hinterhof, und war trotz lautem Nevsky ruhig. Frühstück ausser Haus wenige Schritte entfernt, entweder preiswert oder westlich möglich. Kein Kleiderschrank. Nur eine, zu schmale Bettdecke, aber 2. wurde nach Wunsch bereitgestellt. Würde beim nächsten Besuch wieder buchen.
• Verified traveler (8/5): - Unique , quirky decor. Great location 2 minutes from Hermitage.
• Rosalind (10/5): Really quirky fabulous boutique hotel - Really quirky fabulous boutique hotel. These rooms are located on 4th floor of an old building almost diagonally across from The Hermitage on Main Street Nevsky Prospekt. Your bags go in the lift and you walk- good exercise. The staff at the small reception are fantastic- we had Anastasia upon checkin- she was very helpful with all info incl restaurant suggestions. Breakfast can be ordered night before - the omelette is really good!! Lovely soundproofed room, bathrobes, slippers tea/coffee, fridge. My only concern was that the sheets seemed too small for the bed, could not be tucked in an barely covered the two of us. Otherwise, could not fault - really fabulous stay.
• Eva (10/5): - Et særegent og sjarmerende hotell midt i smørøyet !
• Iris (8/5): - エレベーターがとても古いが、きちんと動きます。エレベーターの1階の扉はどうやら使用不可能のようで、2階まで荷物を持って上がってからエレベーターに乗らないといけません。 通りからは見つけにくいですが、ちゃんと入口の写真を送ってくださいます。メトロの駅からも、エルミタージュ美術館へも徒歩圏で便利でした。 スタッフの皆さんも英語が話せて助かりました。 オンボロのエレベーターでビビりますが、部屋の中はとても清潔で、ロシア文学をテーマにした内装が素敵でした。
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Staff were very kindly and easy to go to anywhere
• Verified traveler (10/5): - The room was beautifully and uniquely furnished, the location was amazing, only one block from the Hermitage, the room was very quiet and the staff were so helpful and friendly, and they all spoke English. It was the perfect place to stay in St. Petersburg and I have nothing negative to say about it.
• Verified traveler (10/5): - 若いスタッフがとても感じがいいホテルでした。 今後のためのトライアルとして、朝食を提供していました。8:30-11:00の間で頼めて、部屋まで持って来てくれます。 清潔でした。 天井が高い部屋です。 建物のエレベーターは年代物で、しかも見た目は恐ろし気ですが、使えますし、無理な場合はスタッフに言えば荷物も運んでくれました。
• Christine (10/5): Excellent location and steps from Hermitage Museum - Fantastic staff! Very helpful and the breakfast was wonderful. Food was brought to our room. Excellent location! Would recommend this hotel, just note the there is an old elevator which holds one person or 2 suitcases and the building is older o the stairway isn't what a typical American would expect. Don't let this deter you. This is the 3rd time time in Saint Petersburg and this is a hotel we would definitely stay again.
• Kevin (10/5): - The staff were friendly and helpful. This hotel is in an excellent location and the room is beautiful with a lot of charm. Easy to explore the city from here with plenty of shopping/food/sight options nearby. Highly recommend!
• Diana (10/5): Удачные выходные на Невском - Замечательный отель в начале Невского. Вокруг, а это минуты ходьбы, метро, Дворцовая площадь, рестораны. Номер чистый, светлый с удобной душевой. Кровать - шедевр! Мини бар с низкими ценами и деревянная кресло-качалка, весьма в тему, помечтать с шардоне.
• Violaine (10/5): Allez-y les yeux fermés! - Nous avons passé un excellent séjour dans cet hôtel! La situation géographie est parfaite (3min à pied de l’Ermitage, 5min à pied du pont du Palais, 3 min à pied d’une station de métro), l’accueil vraiment chaleureux avec de très bons conseils sur les choses à visiter, les restaurants aux alentours, des réservations dans des bars faites pour nous etc. L’hôtel est très propre, sûr et les chambres spacieuses, modernes, très bien décorés et avec tout le confort nécessaire! Excellent rapport qualité/prix et nous n’hesiterions pas à revenir au Métropolis si nous avons la chance de revenir dans cette splendide ville! Vous pouvez y aller les yeux fermés!
• Nindy (10/5): I will stay here again - Has a great location, in city centre. Their staff very helpfull
• Juha Matti (8/5): Yllättävän mukava - Hissin kunto hotelliin neljänteen kerrokseen järkyttävä lisäksi hissi erittäin pieni. Yllättäin itse hotelli ja hotellihuone todella siisti ja mukavan tuntuinen. Palvelussa hieman parannettavaa. Huoneeseen annettiin ainoastaan yksi huonekortti. Ja esim pullovettä ei ollut huoneessa ja varauksessa luvatut juomat drinkkilasisymbooleineen tarkoittivatkin vain teetä.
• Xie (8/5): - The hotel is on the 4th floor of old building with a tiny freight lift to get to the hotel. Entry is old and not noticeble. The hotel crew are nice and young ladies and guys who are friendly and ready to answer your questions and offer help. Room is clean and furniture and room are antique type which reflect the spirit of St. Petersburg. My wife and I have a nice stay in the hotel.
• Verified traveler (10/5): Nice hotel perfectly located in heart of city. - Nice hotel perfectly located in heart of city. Rooms very clean and friendly staff.
• Verified traveler (8/5): super Lage - super gelegen, im Zentrum mit kurzen Wegen. Sehr schöne geräumige Zimmer, supernettes und hilfreiches Personal, unterstützt in allen Belangen. Kleiner Nachteil ist der sehr kleine und uralte Aufzug, man selbst und 2 Koffer passen nicht hinein. Funktioniert aber.
• Key (10/5): - エルミタージュに行くのには便利で最高のホテルだと思います。 大きな荷物を持っているとエレベーターに苦労すると思いますが、大きな荷物がなければ十分なホテルです。
• Paul (10/5): Good hotel, good location for St Petersburg - Metropolis Hotel is in a good location for exploring St Petersburg. We stayed here 3 nights for the World Cup. Took us a while to get there but that was us trying to navigate the buses and Subway from the airport ;-) We decided to ask the hotel to organise a cab for our return and it was a good price and well worth it. Not sure if they can do the same for meeting you at the airport on arrival, but worth asking. It doesn't look like your typical hotel and small sign from the outside is all the tells you it is there. Certainly use the authentic old lift for your bags which was fine, if you are not comfortable in lifts maybe not one for you! Staff all very helpful and friendly, hotel is clean and tidy. Rooms are nice. We had a good 3 days!
• joseph (10/5): - Great location. Great Staff. Great clean. Great security.
• Daniel (8/5): Nevsky Pr. - Leider gibt es kein Frühstück, aber 10 Schritte vom Eingang gibt es ein "Coffee House", welches Frühstück, aber auch Mittag- und Abendessen anbietet. Gleich darunter gibt es einen kleinen Laden. Sehr ruhig im Innenhof gelegen. Rezeption ist 24h bedient. Kaum brauchbare Kanäle am TV. Minibar (Kühlschrank sehr ruhig). Wi-Fi gut. Lift funktioniert immer noch.
• GARMON (10/5): SURPRISINGLY WONDERFUL - AMAZING hotel - what a pleasant surprise. So boutique, so unexpected And SO central and well located! No real services to speak of, but who needs them when so central and so well located - EVERYTHING at doorstep And staff SO FRIENDLY A real wonderful and unexpected surprise
• Verified traveler (10/5): Great little hotel in a perfect location - Stayed here during the world cup for 2 nights. The hotel staff, particularly the young lady that checked us in were all extremely nice and helpful. The nearby Vegan restaurant recommended was amazing. The location is ideal within spitting distance of the winter palace and the main areas of town. Definitely recommend.
• Wendy (10/5): Metropolis Hotel - We stayed at the Metropolis Hotel for five nights. The location is perfect for downtown St Petersburg. It is not a traditional hotel but they have tried to make it comfortable. The staff are very friendly and helpful. The location and the price sells this hotel. Ask for a room on the court side. The street side is very noisy although it does quiet down around 11:00.
• Nick (10/5): Nice hotel at the western end of Nevsky Prospect - Excellent boutique hotel. It is located at 5 Nevsky Prospect (western end of the street very close to the Hermitage). The only downside to the hotel is that it isn't entirely obvious from the street. There is a wooden door with a small, plaque mounted to the wall that says 'Metropolis'. That's it. The only reason I mention the lack of signage is because it is such a nice, cool hotel that they would get more business if people could easily find it. Once you enter the building, it feels like a residential building. The hotel is located on the 4th floor. The elevator is TINY. It is an old building and it is the only size of elevator that they could fit but it is old style and barely fits one person with their luggage. However, this isn't their fault, it's just an old building. Once you get in the elevator (or use the stairs) and go to the 4th floor you will see the hotel. It's cool. The rooms have been updated, the ceilings are tall, the staff speak English very well and they tell you a story about the hotel (each room has a theme). I enjoyed it and would stay here again. It is about 75m from the Admiraltayskaya metro station. The location is fantastic.
• Verified traveler (10/5): We didn´t want to leave! - We had an amazing stay. The room was comfortable and well designed. The staff was incredibly helpful. The location couldn't be better. Hopefully we will be back soon!
• Katharine (10/5): Excellent place. - All good, modern/new, working well and comfortable We would definitely stay there again. Close to everything! Rooms were excellent. Going up the 4 flights of stairs to reception looks very old but don’t judge the hotel by this. There is an old, one person lift that works. It all adds to the experience/fun.
• TLC (10/5): Clean! New! Across from Hermitage. - For the American that is accustomed to clean hotels with great service, this is the place in St. Pete's. Yes, it is up 4 flights of stairs, but don't let that deter you, this is a charming hotel that is super clean. All rooms are themed which adds some interest to your Russia stay. The Tchaikovsky room has a piano! The managers obviously want to be hoteliers and go out of the way to keep a comfortable and secure hotel. Our room had an electric kettle, tea, sugar, water, coffee, cups, etc. It also had very comfortable bed and clean linen, soaps/shampoos, slippers and a bathtub/shower. The room temp was pleasant, not hot! They brought filtered water when asked. Oh, there is also a TV, as well but we hardly touched it. It sits diagonally from the Hermitage/Winter Palace and it is a quick walk there so if you need to come back to the hotel for food or a quick nap, you can do it on foot. You can choose a room with a street view or a view of the courtyard. Just downstairs is an excellent bakery that opens around 7am for breakfast and they stay open late. There is a McDonalds and KFC just around the corner. The street is packed with shops open late. The Galleria is about a half hour walk or you can take a bus/metro. Kazan Cathedral and the Savior/Spilled blood cathedral are within about a 10 minute walk. It is also close if you want to walk the bridges. We walked to the Peter and Paul Fortress which was about a half hour. Taxis are plentiful and the front desk can help you.
• Konstantin (8/5): Купите шкаф :) - Отель на 4-м этаже жилого дома. Лифт - скорее достопримечательность, нежели способ перемещаться между этажами. Номер (Чайковский) большой, просторный, светлый, но все портит одна мелкая недоработка - в номере нет шкафа. В итоге сначала выдумываешь как развесить по всем углам и крючкам одежду, а потом, когда она понадобилась - ходишь и ищешь куда же ты ее повесил. Уважаемая администрация, ваша гостиница обладает неоспоримым преимуществом - расположением. Сделайте пожалуйста небольшую доработку номера - купите шкаф, у стены, где стоит холодильник достаточно места для него.
• sabri (8/5): Perfect location - The location of he hotel is great, very close to the main attraction points and on the most vivid street. The receptionists were very friendly and had perfect english. The lift looked scary so we have never experienced. The noise of the street especially racing cars were annoying durig the night. Registration taxes are not convincing and creates a negative effect on tourists.....
• Verified traveler (10/5): centraltbeliggende Kultur-boost - Supercharmerende og indrettet med tidstypiske detaljer for den kulturpersonlighed som værelset er opkaldt efter. Vil klart vende tilbage. Wi-fi virker helt ned på gadeplan - hvilket gør det nemt at bruge div. apps til transport og kort. Det eneste der trækker ned, er elevatoren som du bliver anbefalet ikke at bruge.
• Svetlana (10/5): - Комфортный отель, отличное расположение, замечательный персонал. Интересный дизайн номеров, уютный, без гостиничной скуки. Номера просторные. Хорошая звукоизоляция - в номере тихо. Осталось только отремонтировать лифт, отель находится на 4 этаже жилого дома.
