Hotel Belarus is a nice place to stay. The location is good. A short walk can take one to the major sightseeing areas here. The room was spacious, clean and comfortable. It provided a beautiful view of the outside. The bathroom was clean too. The pool is quite large with saunas. There is also a good gym here. But I... More

Hotel is very good. Very helpful personal. It is located not far from the center of Minsk. It is very easy to find it. There is extreamly beautiful wiev from the window. I am very sad that we can't stay there this year.

Vintage Soviet-style all the way. Something for everyone to experience once before these places become extinct. Main problem was utter lack of sleep comfort -- miserable little bed, curtains in name only, no air conditioning. Nice view of West World though from room 821. And, the restaurant food was good. Lots of things to photograph here -- mural in pool... More

We expected a real Soviet experience in this hotel, and I think we got one. The hotel is huge, the lobby is huge (and a bit dark in the evenings), the staff is numerous... The room itself (business one) was really nice and clean, and actually not so Soviet one. Like any western hotel room. The view from the 14th... More

I have to disagree with most of the reviews here. I found this to be a very good hotel, and very cheap at only $50 a night (hint: prices vary widely depending on the travel agency you use - if you use Minotel Express, it is the cheapest). Contrary to what the other reviews here say, I found the people... More

Me and my wife stayed in the hotel in January 2010. The hotel is not any up-to-date, it's a typical Soviet hotel so it's hard to write a review living in 21st century. Location: Good. Right to the river Svisloch. 10 minutes walk to the main Orthodox cathedral and the historical part of Minsk. Rooms and facilities: We stayed at... More

Anyone who has not travelled to Belarus before will probably have several difficulties. 1. the visa, 2. dealing with language barriers 3. the lack of activities and 4. the lack of service. As you first leave the airport etc, expect BAD service from every angle, expect people to be rude and selfish. Maybe I have painted this in a bad... More

For all of us who love gloomy and dark soviet style hotels in eastern europe (who doesn't?) this is as close to heaven as you get. Hotel Belarus is a charming hotel i soviet 60:s or 70:s style with dark corridors, awkward passages, strange doors and gloomy hallways - I love it! The service personel is harsh but correct and...

The hotel has an Excellent location, in a park right in the center of town. It is out-dated and very basic but the rooms are clean and the stuff is friendly. Breakfast should be taken in the restaurant on the top floor (if is not in the price of the room – is worth while to pay a little extra... More
