We visited Sergiyev Posad on an overnight trip from Moscow - mainly to visit the Monastery. There is a little bit of English around the monastery, but if you want a guide book, as you walk on on the left, there is a small bookshop where you can pick up a mini book about the monastery (that includes a map)...

The monastery are very well maintenance and always visited by the local. The church and cathedral are fascinating and beautiful. Inside also one small cafeteria offer light meal at acceptable price.
