Hotel 3-Star di Irkutsk Oblast, Russia

A great hotel! I was a little worried because of the low ratings, but the receptionist was very kind. The hotel has heating, and there's a decent restaurant diagonally opposite the hotel to the right. The hotel is also very close to the city hall, so there are plenty of food options. Photo 1 shows breakfast for two, which cost 90 rubles. We booked in advance and they delivered it directly to our room. The food was quite good and we enjoyed it.

The hotel's location is incredibly convenient, with both buses and marshrutkas stopping right in front. There's no need to call a taxi; you can simply take the #80 bus to the airport. After shopping at the Central Market, I found it very helpful to catch the #425 marshrutka, which also stops directly outside the hotel. From Kirov Square, near the hotel, you can even take a tram that goes all the way to the 130 Kvartal area. Kirov Square also features a charming log cabin that serves as a tourist information center. Right next door to the hotel, to the north, there's a 24-hour supermarket, which was perfect for picking up souvenirs.

The location is excellent, with a direct shuttle from the airport. The environment is clean, with a kitchen and hot water. The only problem is there's no front desk staff; it's all self-service, which might be difficult for those who don't speak Russian. Yesterday afternoon, I arrived but couldn't get in. The phone number left at the door didn't work, and no one answered the doorbell. It was freezing cold, and I asked two strangers, but neither of them understood English. A third person finally helped me call the hotel and explain that I needed a password to open the door. Even connecting to the Wi-Fi was extremely difficult; I couldn't understand a word of Russian. Later that evening, a front desk staff member came to register my information. He spoke English and finally got the Wi-Fi working. After that, he left. When I checked out at 10 am the next day, no one was there.

Excellent! The front desk staff speaks Chinese, which is very helpful. The hotel is clean and hygienic, and the location is fantastic, right across from Lake Baikal. It has two buildings, a main building and an annex. You can still catch a glimpse of Lake Baikal from the annex as well.

Although the room was small and not new, it had all the necessary facilities, and the bedding was clean and hygienic. Across the road from the hotel entrance is the gently flowing Angara River, with many water birds. You can find coffee shops and other amenities nearby, and they are not expensive. The hotel's exterior is a typical Brezhnev-era Soviet-style building. I was very touched by the free luggage storage, as it's very inconvenient to drag luggage around on my two-day trip to Olkhon Island, and both the minivan and other transportation options charge for it.

I initially booked for two days to check out the facilities, and then extended my stay for a few more. The room was a bit small. Since the central AC was off, and it was a bit cold during my stay, the front desk proactively offered extra blankets and a portable electric heater, which was a lifesaver for the rest of my trip. The service was good, and responses were quite quick. The facilities are just average, but it's very clean. They also actively assist with visa-on-arrival applications.

The homestay is very close to the Baikal Lake and the train station, a short walk away, and a short walk from the town center, but relatively far away. The facilities of the homestay are quite complete, but the rooms are small, the beds are small, and the bathrooms are public. The landlord looked fierce and spoke very loudly, but he was very enthusiastic. My companion and I arrived at the hotel at 7 o'clock in the morning. The companion had a fever and was uncomfortable. The landlord checked in for us directly at 7 o'clock in the morning. He was very enthusiastic. There are flowers and swings in the yard of the hotel, and the environment is beautiful.

Initially, I was checked into an apartment at a different address because the one at Deputatskaya, 87/4 was occupied. But literally half an hour later, it became available, and oh, miracle! I was lucky enough to move in there. I immediately loved the interior, the comfortable bed, the nice kitchen area, and the clean bathroom. The two windows on one side provide great light, and there's a beautiful view from the balcony of blue spruces and the Angara River. As a gift, there was a bottle of water and two packets of porridge, plus packaged tea. In the bathroom, there was shampoo, shower gel, conditioner, and a washing machine – which is great if you need to freshen up your clothes. I was able to get some quality rest after a long journey, for which I am sincerely grateful to the studio owner and the very pleasant Maria, who quickly and meticulously cleaned everything up! If I need to stay in Irkutsk again in the future, I know who to contact now. I highly recommend it; it's great here!

The hotel has excellent facilities, but the downside is there's no elevator and the room is a bit small. However, the environment is good, and it offers great value for money. Harat's inn Hotel is located above Harat's pub, which is a Russian chain bar. Our check-in was handled at the pub's front desk. The pub has an Irish theme, a great atmosphere, and very friendly staff. There are restaurants and supermarkets around the hotel, and a bus stop is just a short walk away, making it very convenient overall.

Quick settlement, stopped with husband for rest after night flight , between flights was 11 hours, wanted to sleep before the next flight . The rest option in other hotels - was uncomfortable because settlement after 14 hours . The apartments were perfect (the owner kindly settled us in the morning) remotely! 8-10min by taxi from the airport , the apartment is comfortable , clean , there is absolutely everything necessary! The house is a cafe where you can have a delicious lunch!
