It is 4 year that i travell to moscow for buisness, and i slept in many hotel, but this has been one of the worst.
I choose this hotel even if it was a bit more expensive than otehr especially because of the good rewiew that i read here on trip advisor.....but it was a mistake.....
the room was totally different from the pictures on the internet, very very small and incredibily hot without possibility to convince the heating system of the room to cool down......but the really worst part of all was the matress......I travel a lot and i slept on almost every kind of matres i have no problem with it, but it NEVER HAPPENED to me to sleep for 170euro on a matress that have the springs of iron of the matress that STICK in all your body.....i slept terribly...... so for this money i dont advise this hotel at all........because the most important thing in a hotel is the quality of the sleeping and this was incredibily POOR here.

breakfast was ok but nothing special

Very nice hotel vith pleasant staff, good meal and perfect 24hours room sevice.

We stayed at Katerina Park in Moscow in July and really liked it. We booked it off of booking.com and got a great price especially for Moscow. It's in an alright location, but about a 5-7 mins walk from the metro. There are 4 exit/entrances to the metro station so make a note of which one is the closest. We lucked out when we first got there and picked the right one not knowing there were a few and it was just right up the street from it. We got home the night after a little late and couldn't figure out what side of the intersection we should head though, and the area gets a little sketchy after dark. The hotel had a great buffet, like huge buffet! And breakfast was included. The room itself wasn't much to be honest, but clean. Not as updated as I'd like, but hey you're in Moscow, so it was definitely good enough. I'd say it's a 3star in N.A. standards. Huge plus is the free breakfast and mini-bar. Come on, where can you find any place that has a free mini-bar??? The staff were also nice, and tried very hard to understand our questions and to help us too.

I stayed at the Katerina Park for 4 nights in mid-November 2011. It's a pleasant, well-kept budget hotel similar to a Comfort Inn or a Super 8 in the U.S. Here are a few specifics.

LOCATION. Like other reviewers have noted, this hotel is not exactly in the middle of things in Moscow. However, it is definitely within walking distance of 2 different Metro stations ("Prazhskaya" is closest at 3 minutes by foot; "Yuzhnaya" is more like 7 minutes; both are at the bottom of the Grey line). The Metro will deliver you to the immediate vicinity of Red Square in about half an hour; just beware of the rush hour crowds.

ROOMS. Mine was a standard room, small but clean and comfortable. Of course, I happen to like firm beds and flat pillows; someone else might not. The walls are thin - the 2 a.m. lovemaking next door sounded like they were in the same bed as me - but that's common at many budget hotels. The shower stall could use a grip bar - when I slipped, there was little to grab on to. The heated towel rack was a nice touch.

AMENITIES. The "free mini-bar" should probably be called a "free snack bar" - it contains a couple of water bottles, some soda, juice, and a few vending-machine-type snacks. Not that I'm complaining - it's nice to get something for free in Moscow - but the term "mini-bar" can be somewhat deceiving. The WiFi is free throughout the hotel; it's not super-fast, but it gets the job done. There is an ATM machine on premises.

FOOD. The free breakfast buffet is probably the biggest and best you've seen anywhere. The food is delicious and presented in an appealing way. The 24-hour bar in the lobby is nice. I did not have a chance to try any food from the restaurant/room service.

STAFF. Courteous, professional, helpful, and multilingual.

BOTTOM LINE. You definitely get your money's worth at Katerina Park, as long as you realize it's 30-45 minutes away from anywhere and bring earplugs.
