5 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 May 2013 NEW

The hotel is clean and central. I give it 5 stars because the rooms are good and the staff efficient and it is an excellent location. The buffet breakfast are excellent - but the set dinner (I was in a tour group) were not good.

The Dostoevsky Hotel was a very good hotel in my opinon, the staff was very friendly indeed. It is situated in the middle of the city and close to cafeterias and shops. Breakfast was really good, a big range of different things to eat.

There is a shopping center next to hotel and a good patisserie under the building. You can go by walking to all central historical places like... More

This hotel is a wise choice for anyone intending to stay in SPb. It has a very good location, right next to the metro station, it stands only some 400 meters from the Nevsky prospect, there is a shopping mall in the same building and magnificent Vladimirsky cathedral just across the road. Room was quite comfortable but nothing special. Breakfast... More

First, just don't forget you are in Russia before jumping to conclusions, it's really astounding what you can read... For the location and the price, you just cannot get better in Saint Petersbourg So of course you have to accept some downsides. I only had one, the breakfast which would need more effort. Room is good with all you need... More

This was our 2nd stay in this hotel. We have tried many hotels in SPb, and Dostoevsky offered good value for the money on the 1st visit. We are travelling as a family with 2 kids and decided to take Junior suite, which I recommend to others as well. The rooms are larger and offer great view on the Vladimirsky... More

It's undeniably cheap but if you have any other option stay elsewhere. Rooms are tiny and hot with a view of a shopping mall and no widows or air conditioning. I wouldn't feed the breakfast to a dog, I would recommend going to the reasonably priced 24 hour supermarket in the shopping mall downstairs and buy yourself some supplies. If... More

The location is excellent but the hotel itself is terrible: all rooms face the inner yard which is a city shopping mall. No sun, no air, tiny old rooms, no breakfast... You can not open a window and feel like your are on cheap sea cruise but you are not! Never reccomend!
