For a single (and simple) room, it was perfectly good. Clean and new. Good bath and a perfect room service. When you cross the exit, you are already in a metro station. Attendants are nice, but unfortunately only one guy spoke a good English there. Moreover, the room was smelling smoke when I arrived. Anyhow, I strongly recommend it.

I booked this through Thomas Cook, based on good TA reviews. City Central hotels were much more and this was excellent value for money.
Staff are friendly and speak good English; a very useful aspect in moscow. They were helpful with directions and suggestions for places to visit and areas for restaurants; especially around the hotel rather than in the centre. Local one are a bit hit and miss as they do not have english menus. I found it better to return to the centre.

Security is good at the hotel; you feel safe. In fact, the whole area is busy into the evening and it seemed safe.

The one difficult thing is to find the hotel, even if it is next to the metro... so...

HINT for metro travel.
Take exit from platform near the back of the train (travelling from city centre). Turn left just after going through station exit doors into the subway then exit right. Ar street level, look to the left (away from the road) and hotel is through a gap in the wall.

This hotel was €60 a night for a single room. The room was very clean and modern, there was an excellent breakfast. It's about three stops from the city centre which is really no problem at all. The area felt very safe with shops and cafes nearby. I would highly recommend this hotel.

Hotels with a location close to the metro are convenient, especially in Moscow. The Maxima Panorama has adequate sized rooms with excellent security and convenient internet access. There are tables in the restaurant room sufficient for small group meetings and discussions. A number of good restaurants are within a few minutes walking distance of the hotel. The reception is manned with English speaking personnel who are helpful with information and suggestions. Hotel can organize
