Reviews for Astoria

Review 1:No bad experience really. They wouldn't turn on the AC but it wasn't necessary.

Review 2:The location was nice, a short walk to town and local facilities. The staff were very very pleasant, no one spoke English, if that matters to you. Russian language is rather necessary, but they were very pleasant at any rate. Breakfast wasn't spectacular, but it did the job

Review 3:- Signs warning that damage would result in being charged - poor value breakfast - separate charge for coffee at breakfast - pay as you use coffee machine - complicated check out procedure

Review 4:Good quality room and clean.

Review 5:It is a shame, Booking.com! The hotel corresponds at most 2 *, but the prices is as in hotel of 4*. Staf is aggressive. Carefully! The maid blabbed out that numbers are under video surveillance.

Review 6:Nothing.

Review 7:I was looking for a hotel in Volgograd near the Mamayev Kurgan memorial. Other places were closer but had sketchy reviews and Astoria looked the nicest on the whole. If you take the bus from Volgograd Airport (which is very cheap) it lets you off at the intersection of Parkhomenko and the main road into the city. From there it is about a ten minute walk to the hotel. Be warned that the sidewalks leading to the hotel are in miserable condition. If you have a heavy rolling bag, it's a pretty long, unpleasant walk. If you have a backpack, no big deal. You cannot miss the hotel on this street. It's a sleek, screaming blue cube on an out-of-the-way street lined with older, often neglected residential buildings. It's kind of like a giant Smurf in the middle of Flint, Michigan. Bizarre. The biggest bummer about the hotel itself is the lack of an elevator. I had one really heavy bag filled with camera equipment. After lugging it over the broken, rolling asphalt of Parkhomenko Street, I wasn't psyched about lugging it up three flights of stairs. The bed and the dresser are a cheap plastic that you find in other Russian hotels. The floors are a fake hardwood surface which make the room feel less than cozy. The mattress is comfy but very soft. Astoria boasts a 4 star rating above the building entrance. That's debatable. The staff are nice, the hotel design is pleasant and airy, the room was clean with a very nice bath. But you don't walk into the room and say, "Ah nice!" It's more like, "Eh, it's pretty good." And if that's all you're looking for, you won't be disappointed. The bigger negative is that it's in a weird location, about 25 minutes from the memorial, and not especially close to downtown Volgograd. I give it a 4 star rating because I suspect that relative to other options in the same price range, it's probably a bit nicer.

Review 8:It has a nice modern lobby with a friendly staff at the front desk. As is true throughout Russia, they speak limited English so it can be a challenge for English-speakers if you have specific questions or requests. The design has a nice vibe to it. Our junior suite was pretty spacious and had a very roomy bathroom with a large tub. By the way, the shower pressure was awesome if you care about such things. Amenities include a well-stocked mini bar, flat screen TV, wifi, and a vinyl sofa.

Review 9:breakfast did not satisfie us.

Review 10:location is okay and staff waas kind.
