Hotel Panorama

Fair
Traveller Type: Solo Traveler
  : This "hotel" is some kind of sports dormitory complex, and it looks like it has many play areas for children (but only open in summer, all kid zones are closed in winter). It is not very expensive, so if you like a basic Soviet-style dormitory hotel / sanitarium, this is okay. The pizzeria on the top floor is very cosy and tasty, but unfortunately it is not open on the weekends.
  : This is not a comfortable or luxury place, more like a cheap place for corporate events, sports teams, and maybe summer kid camps. Most of the amenities listed on their site (sauna, picnic zones, play areas, art gallery, etc.) do not work in the winter. Also, hot water worked only very early in the morning or at night, with no hot water from 10am-6pm. The pizzeria restaurant is the only good one, but it is closed on weekends. The other restaurant on the first floor is a large children's play zone which is very noisy with kids popping balloons and music played too loud to speak, and it is not heated so even inside the staff give blankets for customers to keep warm. Food service was VERY slow and not accurate; one meal, I was given completely wrong food that I didn't order, at breakfast I was given two orders of food to pay for that I only ordered one of, and one dinner I was given everything in reversedessert first, then schnitzel, and then a one-hour wait for a salad. The hotel is very far away from the center, and public transportation is not good (one marshrutka per hour a distance away from the hotel). Maybe in summer the walk is better, but in winter it is more than an hour to walk on muddy streets to the city center. Generally, an uncomfortable hotel with a bad restaurant far from the city center.

Very Good

  : There are not many options to choose from. So Panorama was one of the best. Easy access, quick service, pretty clean
