First of all, coming from either the bus or train stations, which are next to each other, this is the perfect place to drop your luggage. It is barely two-hundred metres to the hotel. This means a longer walk into town to go out for lunch, dinner etc, but for me that is perfect, I only stayed one night, but my impressions of all the staff I met were positive. They spoke good English, if that is what you need. The room was fine; clean, tv, wifi etc and big enough for a solo traveller in my case, but don't expect well lit corridors or amazing views. There is something a little Soviet about the hotel, which I liked - reasonably basic, not a lot of charm, but a decent price. There is a café next door where they serve breakfast and which is open most of the day, but I didn't try that. I was quite happy and if I stayed in Brest again, I'd be happy to stay as I would know what I was getting.…
Stayed one night. Cost 62BYR without breakfast. Everything was ok for one night. Reception very nice and helpful, luckily they did speak English. Wifi worked. Didn't have breakfast and didn't think much of the empty bar. 2mins to train station, 5 mins to centre of town. Would recommend to others for a short stay. They provide left luggage facilty also
Apparently this place classes itself as a speciality lodging house but there was nothing special about it at all. Bedroom were arranged on two dimply-lit floors, and the single rooms consist of long, narrow high-ceilinged boxes which seem like monastic cells. My window led straight out onto the street so I had my curtains drawn whenever I was in the room. The bathroom was poorly arranged so it required a contortionist to get into the shower. The only public room in the entire place was the white-tiled, fluorescent-lit, windowless restaurant which doubled as the bar and lounge. There was no choice at breakfast, which was simply dumped in front of us, without any clue as to what we might expect in each dish. On the positive side the receptionist was friendly and spoke good English.
Definitely from the Soviet era this hotel. It's a little worn around the edges, but makes for a good base for Brest and the surrounding areas. It still retains its former charm, but is comfortable and a good price. The location is the best thing, it's a short walk to the train station or in to the city centre. There's an exchange office next door and a large supermarket next to that. The bus station is only a 10 minute walk away. To get to the hotel from the train station, walk over the footbridge with everyone else towards the city (so with the train station main building behind you walk to your right). Then cross the road and walk down the road in the same direction you just crossed. The hotel is on the left side and says HOTEL above the door, but everything else is in Russian. Irena on the front desk (young girl) speaks English very well and is really helpful. Wifi is free and really good throughout the hotel.…
Though our room was slightly dated, it was very clean. Breakfast in the adjoining restaurant was very good, as was the dinner we had one night. The price/quality rating of this hotel is excellent. Although not all the staff speak English (and we only speak very basic Russian), we were always helped with our questions and requests. We used their laundry service, which I would definitely recommend. Very fast and cheap! I would definitely recommend this hotel to people staying in Brest for a couple of days.
