Minsk

The property is well located (within walking distance of shops, restaurants and attractions) and does its job, but looks tired and in need of renovation. Reasonably quiet. The room looked slightly gloomy, with dark decor and stained carpeting that had seen better days. Inconveniently located power sockets: at floor level both near the desk and near the head of the bed behind the curtains. A/C was old and difficult to adjust. Amenities included mini-fridge and electric kettle. Reasonably comfortable bed and pillows. Comforter only without top sheet (not ideal in summer). Multiple mismatched lamps that had to be turned off one by one. Bathroom with everything in working order. Low water pressure in the shower (on the 6th floor). Poor wifi (room was at the end of the hallway). Free parking for guests, although getting in and out is a little complicated. Friendly staff; most of them speak English.

This is my second stay in Hotel Minsk. The Superior room at level 5 (528) was old with a strange odour. The corridor has an even stronger odour which requires sanitation urgently. Check-in & check out was efficiently processed at the Receptions counter. For a 4-star hotel, hotel workers didn't greet no smiles, just cold looking faces. The only smiling face was the Reception lady at the Health Club. She was friendly and smiling warmly when registering my use of the gym. The breakfast buffet was as impeccable as last week's stay. The other advantage is the convenient location next to Capital Mall, Railway station, metro, bus station, Galileo Mall, walking distance to major attractions.

Decent hotel in a great location with good breakfast the room was pleasant
