Accommodation - Russian Federation - Moscow - Luxury / Modern

 

With an estimated population of 12,622,000 and a preceding status as one of the world’s most rapidly evolving cities, it would be expected that accommodation options in Moscow are adequately provided for. As it stands this is clearly not the case, although continued development will ensure such inadequacies are short-term only.

The greatest deficiency is centered on the standard and availability of mid-range establishments, demand for rooms so high within this category that there is virtually no seasonal variation in pricing and discounting is a rarity. Whilst the standard of hotels in this bracket continues to improve, a general sense of shabbiness continues to permeate the experience and the level of service can often fall short of one’s expectations. It is essential to book well in advance and where possible, request a room that has been recently renovated.

In contrast, the standard of accommodation and luxury amongst premium hotels is truly world class, the majority focus orientated towards the business traveller.  Pricing is correspondingly high although there tends to be more flexibility for rate negotiation.

Location should be an important consideration when determining accommodation requirements. Whilst the areas beyond the Garden Ring Road tend to provide the most competitive rates, these hotels are far removed from the main attractions and it is not unusual to spend considerable time sitting in Moscow traffic when travelling to and from the city center.

A word of caution, Russia’s dismissive attitude towards prostitution is noticeable even amongst better quality hotels, many turning a blind eye to the sexual negotiations transacted within their bars and lobbies. Unlikely to affect the average tourist, it is however not unusual for single men to receive late night calls offering the provision of female companionship. Do not hesitate to raise the matter with reception, assuming that is you wish to cease such solicitation.

Prices amongst better hotels, restaurants and shops will usually be represented as a “monetary unit’, abbreviated to Y.E. This is in effect either a US Dollar or Euro rate, Russian law purportedly preventing businesses from trading in any currency other than the ruble.
