The paramount principle of each employee here is true Russian hospitality and personalized approach to each client. With a wide array of services offered and a big area, each guest can find a thing to do to their liking.

They all have parking spaces for private vehicles and barbecue areas. The hotel complex is also a comfortable option to stay at.
