great. so to. go.

our welcome to the show now in the past we've discussed the rising world hostels to five star hotels here in the russian capital what about the middle markets today know a stall lodgings didn't look so bad. so join the market under these as we explore two or three saw lodgings here in moscow starting off i think threads that out hotel office location is situated at the former red october chocolate factory a cultural melting pot the island located near the kremlin is packed full of nightclub swanky restaurants and trendy arts galleries although central the narrow streets are often called to traffic late at night because we know the closest metro is a fat walk away take note said as one of the main new areas of contemporary culture . if you want to be where the action. is the perfect place.

proving popular not just because of its low price but also because. many of the. two hundred. books and magazines. and. every new hotels in. moscow. but they do cater for the younger market for the. struggle.

the middle of the range. out of the city have serious competition. just one hundred meters from. the church. of the same name. there are several shops. close to the area. and. have. various prices but it's close proximity to red square i think it offers the best locations for. this room.

people the price. of two hundred dollars amazing. may not be fancy but the staff speak english it has a friendly atmosphere and more importantly it's clean comfortable and safe. it's convenient location it's very much a station i also appreciate the friendly and authentic stuff here. over the years but in the twenty first century to be cripplingly high prices. to the city as one of the most expensive destinations in the world and accommodation. for thousands of travelers every week. when looking for accommodation anywhere in the world research is the key location facilities designed. to think of

a little time and effort and you can now find what you want. here is a great example just because you pay less doesn't mean you always have to do without the sound and to discuss the topic of middle range accommodation in the russian capital let's meet this week's guest you now must be loving to have heard. about well i think it was a clever move from my dad who started the first here in moscow about fourteen years ago so it was probably a way to get me interested in the business and now of course it's a huge responsibility to have my name on the signs. and one here now. it is a little bit of a problem as well the hotels in moscow as you probably know they're all very different we have a lot of five star hotels and we have quite a few. styles hotels there's really an issue that we feel that is

not well not filled that really want to go to the big. clique and we feel that there is a big demand and that's exactly where we are working it's only about your heart oh well i think that we try the essence of what we tried to deliver is a chameleon state so we would never charge for breakfast for example who would never charge you for internet for wife i would have it all through the hotels in a hotel very far as the hotels are. now and it's like water isn't that you know so that's really important and we included that about three years ago and it's always included in the rate and what we have done is also maybe. a very convenient thing for business travelers but also for tourists is that we have included the mini bar in the rate and we have set we have seen statistics over the years with people take from it and it's usually water a little snack you know even if you're working with you coming home late just want

something small you know dreaded toward room service and way for half an hour we need something something small and for us it actually costs more to handle that kind of the sales of it just has to include it's always included in the rates yeah so yes quite appreciated yes. and we always said that say that we are three plus that you know it's hard to say what is a three star hotel what is forced out of our service i would say is a five star but then maybe we don't have that you know twenty five meter swimming pool that what we're good for a pizza place. or our viewers are thank you very much moving on and what other two or three star hotels worth taking note of. is located in an old building in the historical area of downtown moscow constructed in the nineteenth century this house was a part of a noble's family mansion. of course current interiors of the mini hotel are nothing

like the look. of the old house but equipped with new furniture and facilities such as a conditioning. office rooms of various categories from twenty four thousand rubles around one hundred thirty dollars to cheaper economy rooms and even . the hotel in the north of the city is a three plus hotel with ninety six rooms aiming to combine european companies with russian hospitality. not only standard accommodation but also several designer rooms named. you'll even find you can use the right in the center of the room.

cool. in the west of moscow approximately half an hour's drive from red square there's a large hotel called. providing over two hundred rooms accommodation here around one hundred dollars per night. hotels under the segment. and the. scale is opened in april this year the hotel is not close to the city center but there is a free of charge shuttle bus from a metro station. if you prefer to stay closer to the action of the city center hotel might be a choice for you as it's located five minutes walk to the kremlin just off the central street. designed in a minimalist style thirty five rooms in this mini hotel but you will have to pay more for the hotels convenient location single standard rooms here cost. two

hundred dollars. but by no means least we travel to the northeast area of the city located next to the. final location acquainted only three star hotel in comparison to large chains hotel forty five here. a comfortable location and living conditions to european standards recently renovated the rooms are bright and contemporary as a real family feel about this hotel no surprise that there are. more. and the hotel industry i think has finally worked up to the fact that it's in desperate need of accommodation slowly and surely is getting rectified through accommodation for travellers visits and the country is. three one four i soundproof room and a large library of books. very breakfast in the hotel forty five guests

are also free to use the kitchen during the day. this is a great. family home. when i come home. as most develops changes will constantly in the many areas of its everyday life where the hotels restaurants or close shops growth and development why the choice and more competition. can be daunting the price of a budget travel is yes but now you have seen for yourselves hotels with price tags you well over until you go shopping. so some great choices for you that the russian capital doesn't have to be so expensive after all. well unfortunately that's all the time we have left on this week's program two and three star hotels see you again at the same time next week until then for me and the rest of the crew from hotel. forty five year for the.
