Marmara Hotel

Отель прекрасный , персонал вежливый ! Завтраки вкусные) одно «но»-неудобные душевые, по крайней мере в стандартном номере) а так все отлично, спасибо !

It is not expensive small hotel located in quite place. Breakfast is standard and staff is very friendly and helpful. A beautiful park is right on the other side of the street. If You want to get center of the city - it's just 15 min by car.

My wife and I just finished our 7 day stay at the Marmara. The service staff deserve a solid 4 star rating and that would bring my grade up to 3.5 stars......but this hotel does not rate 4 stars. They rate themselves a 3 star and that is fair - a solid 3 stars, imo.

The water in this region of St. Petersburg for some reason has a bad smell - when you turn the taps on you smell it right away. When walking to the subway we could also smell the same smell in a few places - and one does not smell that in the centre of the city. My wife has heard people comment on the radio in Moscow that regions of St. Petersburg have bad water. This is not the fault of the hotel.......there is water available for drinking in the hallways - hot or cold, so no lack of drinking water at all.

In booking the room it was stated plainly that there was air conditioning in this class of room - there was no air conditioner, fortunately it was not overly hot while we were there, but we had to have the window open which let in some flying pests but not too many mosquitoes. There was a plug in fan in the room that we did not use - I don't think this counts as an air conditioner..............

Carpeting in the room was quite worn out.......still alright and clean - and the cleaners do a great job cleaning every day.

Breakfast was alright - coffee, tea, apples, oranges, breads and pastries, porridge (thou cold sometimes if you don't get it when it's first served), meats and cheese, yogurt, etc. So not a bad breakfast but much of it that should be served hot is not even warm. But certainly enough that there is ample to eat........

It takes about an hour to get into the center of town on your own (closest metro to Hermitage) about 20 minute walk to the subway and then about 40 minutes with one change in trains. Very easy to navigate the subway system

Pool is quite small but nice - we used the sauna one evening (you have to pay for the sauna, not the pool). Very friendly, helpful staff in the lobby.

it doesnt look like the picture, there is no air conditioning, the tv is the size of a cell phone, the shower area is terrible. there is no elevator. breakfast ok.
do not book at this place.

Tube tv from 2 decades ago , no inputs for streaming
Internet close every 30’ and needs to call for authorization
Skylight in middle of a room , impossible to sleep at night

Excellent hotel, nice staff, comfortable room and perfect service. Would come again in a heart beat.

Good small hotel. Not expensive and quite comfortable. We stayed there 3 nights: me, my wife and teenager daughter in De Luxe. Breakfast - good but nothing special. Staff - very friendly. Great 200- years old park is in 50 meters. Taxi from/ to he City Center - 15 minutes - Cheap. Except the Park - nothing is in walking distance to see.

Overall, I give two thumbs-up during my 1 week stay at this Hotel. The Marmara Hotel is located on the out-skirts of Saint Petersburg, City Center is located within waking distance should this interest you. Across the street from the Marmara Hotel, is a nice big park with many trees and few ponds if you care to walk; many local residence utilize this area daily (including myself). I happened to book a suite which was very nice & spacious place with clean rooms, comfortable bed & furniture. Unfortunately, I could not understand what was being said on the TV but there were two flat-screen TV's; one in each room. The Bathroom, Sitting Room and Bedroom were cleaned daily. Hotel also provided to guest daily breakfast which had many different choices of foods or you had opportunity to purchase lunch/dinner in same cafe located on floor zero. If you have a question about the Hotel, just send an email to the Hotel staff and a response will be returned in a timely manner. The Hotel staff were friendly and courteous, should you like a ride to & from LED Airport; just request this in an email to Yana . . . cost is reasonable @ 1200 Rubles each direction.
The only Con I had during my stay was the shower, intermittent cold-water mixed in with the Hot-water; perhaps this is due to my suite being located on the 4th floor.
I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS HOTEL FOR BOTH COMFORT AND COST.

I was in st.petersburg about 5 years ego and in very googd hotel ( astorya). But in this 3 star hotel you will be happy. The reception and personels are so kind, helpful and polite. The reception staff help me to found. my lost luggage on airport . I want to thank Julia , who help me to found mu bag kindly.

Nice hotel near a nice park. 300 meters ahead there is a 24 - hour supermarket. They dont sell alcohol in the evening there.
The swimmingpool is small but nice. If you want to use the sauna they charge you.
Rooms are good with very good beds and a powerful airco.

Hotel located a little far away from city center but quite easy to go by car.Room ok and quite large,bathroom ok too.Restaurant they didnt have but cafe ...available food too.we took fresh friyed fish and it was delocious...ounle waiters were a little funny...young "girls" running here and there and it looks that they didint know anything about this job..however smiling helped a little missing
Skills.....cook was professional.

Nice location facing a park, nice and warm room, it was minus 20 outside!, food was nice, the reception staff were helpful and ordered my taxi for me which i paid the hotel directly with, as the Taxi drivers don't speak much english.
