Hotel Belarus

I been to 3 hotels in Minsk. And they are good in different ways. Hotell Belarus is a big hotell. It have everything. But the room, "standard room" Is not the newest (but very clean and everything is in order). The air is good. Its multiple restaurants in the hotell. And one with panorama view at 22 floor. There is casine right close to the hotel. The staff is very polite and helpful. It's very cheap in comparison to all that is here. Its a gym, it cost only a few rubles to use. Also a swimming pool. A business senter with computers and printers/scanners. Big conference rooms. Its a hotell with everything.

A very nice modern hotel in Minsk within walking distance of down town.
The reception was very helpful and they spoke English.
On the ground floor there were several shops, a bar and a restaurant which was also the breakfast room.
The coffee/bar next to the reception is rather handy and friendly.
The shop sells sweets, snacks and alcohol in addition to the usual souvenirs.
The lifts were modern and fast. The rooms were adequate and clean as were the bathrooms. Except for tea and coffee, most facilities were available in the room.
The Panorama restaurant on the very top floor was very good but can get crowded if there is a reception.
A very good hotel and my only criticism is the feeding frenzy at breakfast time which starts at 0700hrs. There are coach loads of people who have to depart at a specified time and they all descend in a body. I found this rather unappetizing.

Much better than I expected. Quick check-in, Ekaterina was very helpful even though we were a little complicated with extra wishes. The rooms obviously recently renovated. A little small but absolutely ok. The bathroom clean and well arranged. Breakfast was really good with something for everybody's taste. From continental to English to sweet cakes and porridge, even near to the end the employees still were bringing replenishment. Modern coffee machines and tea available. Very satisfied with the whole stay and that for an unbeatable price. The view of the city was very good and the hotel is placed near the park with an easy walk of about 10 minutes to the city centre.

Good hotel at a fair price. My room was comfortable about 11 floors up. Cafe  for breakfast is very good and I gave the restaurant a try and I will happily eat there again. I was only passing through so three nights only but I am going to stay there again next year. 4 stars because it can get very busy around May 9th when I am usually there but very friendly staff who helped me a lot.
