Spent New Year's 3 days in the hotel from 30.12 to 01.01. 19. Check in instantly and with a smile. The rooms are very nice and clean. Mattresses, beds and towels. Rooms have quality hairdryers and kettles. The internet worked very well. The room was cleaned every day. Of particular note are the breakfasts on the Swedish line: varied and delicious. The restaurant has very comfortable chairs and a relaxed atmosphere. But the most important thing for me, of course, was the attitude of the hotel and restaurant staff - thank you very well! I can imagine how much patience it sometimes costs you. The staff is great.
The room was booked a week before arrival without prepayment.
The hotel is located in the central part of the city, next to the SkyPark shopping center, opposite McDonald's.
If you come by car, you can park in the courtyard of the hotel. Parking is secure and free for residents. The passage from the parking lot to the hotel is not very convenient: either through the exit to Sobornaya Street (about 100 m before the entrance), or through the restaurant.
Despite the fact that I arrived before 14:00 (standard check-in time), my room was already ready and the check-in went quickly.
Payment is requested upon arrival. But you can pay later. There is a terminal for paying by card.
An electronic card is issued as a key to the room.
Superior room on the second floor.
The photos on the hotel website are true.
I'll add a few more of my own.
The room is spacious and comfortable.
View from the window - on Cathedral street.
From the side of the street, no extraneous sounds penetrate, but you can hear when the doors slam in neighboring rooms, or someone is talking very loudly in the corridor.
The bed is double, wide, with a comfortable mattress and pillows.
The window is large, so there is enough light in the room during the day. But at night, with a curtained window, even if you turn on all the lights, the room remains twilight.
The air conditioner is located well: above the entrance to the room. If you are on the bed, then the flow of cold air does not fall on you.
It doesn't work loudly. The control panel is convenient.
There are three free sockets in the room.
In the hallway there is a wardrobe with a safe and six clothes hangers.
In the bedside table under the TV - a small refrigerator with mineral water, Pepsi, snacks.
There is an electric kettle with two cups, black and green tea, coffee, sugar bags, two bottles of still water.
As a compliment, the hotel provides a card with a 20% discount on all menus of the restaurant located in the basement of the hotel.
LCD TV with a diagonal of at least 32 inches with a standard set of channels and a convenient remote control.
Wi-Fi in the room is good, with a stable signal, you can watch movies online.
The bathroom is medium in size with a shower.
The lighting is brighter than in the room. There is an additional lamp above the mirror.
There is also a mirror with the effect of increasing the reflection.
Plumbing is good, everything works fine.
The room is designed for two people, so there were two sets of bath accessories.
Each set includes: bathrobe, disposable slippers, four towels, soap, shampoo, shower gel, toothbrush with a small tube of toothpaste.
All in neat, pretty packaging.
Shampoo and shower gel of good quality, with a pleasant smell.
There is a hair dryer. Works good.
The shower cabin is comfortable.
Breakfast - buffet.
Sliced three types of ham and three types of cheese, several types of fresh vegetables, pancakes with meat, scrambled eggs, boiled eggs, sausages, chicken meat, muesli, sour cream, cottage cheese, butter, jam, honey, three types of juice from packages, milk, yogurt , nuts, dried apricots, raisins, fermented baked milk, several types of tea bags, coffee from the machine, pastries, fruits - apples, oranges, bananas.
Everything I've tried is delicious.
In my opinion, the hotel "France" is a good combination of price and quality.
