I spend 6 nights in this hotel (05/24/10 to 05/30/10) :
The only positiv aspect is the location for the rest :
- price of the room quite hight regarding to the quality of the room
- I arrived at 11 o'clock am the first day to make the check in and they oblige me to pay for another night (but they did not tell me that when I arrived)
- people unpolite at the reception
- poor breakfast
- the water of the mini bar was outdated (3 months)

I was in Vladivostok for one night. The hotel is located right on the main street, close to the bay, and has a supermarket opposite it. The room was comfortable, bed was nice, clean bathroom, and air conditioning worked well.

TV is basic, with 1 English channel. There is a minibar, and internet with a jack, but there is no wifi. Reception are very helpful but they did not have a map of the town - I would suggest people print a map before arriving.

Breakfast was excellent and service good.

I would recommend the hotel to anyone visiting Vladivosotok.

I took a taxi from the airport to the hotel, which cost me RUB 2000. I would ask the htoel to organise a taxi in advance as it is cheaper. Going from the hotel to the airport cost me RUB 850. Always make sure you wear your seatbelts as speeds are high on the highway and accidents appear frequent.

Vladivostok is not exactly a great tourist destination and the only reason I was there was to board the Trans Siberian train for the trip to Moscow. The Versailles is a clean hotel, the room was quite large and the water was hot. It was in a central position, easy walking distance to the few Vladivostok attractions. The staff were quite helpful, but (as with all Russians) hardly cracked a smile!

Fantastic location within walking distance of lots of interesting places and good restaurants. Excellent free high-speed Internet in the rooms. While I speak Russian, the front desk and restaurant staff spoke good English. Rooms were clean and spacious. Good laundry service at reasonable prices. Beautifully restored elegant building. Hotel restaurant is O.K. but not great for breakfast. Deserted for other meals. Studio Coffee a few doors away is lively and fantastic downstairs for drinks, coffee, and snacks, upstairs for full meals. Also good Japanese and Russian restaurants across the street, but skip the Chinese restaurant next door.
