Hotel Park Krestovsky: reviews of tourists
On the positive side, the hotel guests noted primarily their location in a quiet green area and the ability to quickly reach most of St. Petersburg sights by public transport. The second plus is the large area even of standard rooms. Many also mention the friendly and executive staff and the large free parking.
Negative reviews deserved monotonous breakfasts, a poor internet signal in some places of the hotel and the high cost of food in both restaurants. It is not recommended to check into the hotel during city holiday or sporting events - room prices are skyrocketing, and waiters during the influx of tourists do not have time to cope with their duties. Also, upon arrival, you should immediately examine the location of the smoking area, so that later you will not be surprised at the bill for the corresponding fine - here it is equal to the cost of the room in which you decided to raise.
