Hostels in Leningrad Oblast, Russia

Rating: 7/10. Top location, but mind the shared facilities!Pros: Unbeatable location just 3 minutes from Moskovsky Railway Station and the Galeria mall. The loft-style design looks great, it’s clean, and the Wi-Fi is fast. The contactless self-check-in via electronic keycodes works seamlessly. There is a cozy shared kitchen area equipped with a fridge, microwave, kettle, tableware, and complimentary tea/coffee.Cons: There are only 2 toilets and 1 shower for 7–8 rooms. When the place is fully booked, waiting lines are inevitable, which can be frustrating. Soundproofing is weak due to thin walls. Check-in and check-out times are strict (strictly from 2:00 PM and before 12:00 PM respectively). Since it's fully contactless, early arrival or late departure is hard to arrange, so plan your transit carefully.

Absolutely amazing! I'd recommend this place to everyone! First, the location: it's a 5-minute walk from the Leningrad Hero City Obelisk, very close to the train station and Metro Line 1. Within 500 meters, there are two 'five-star' supermarkets and a Kofevarim (a popular, affordable coffee and bakery chain in St. Petersburg, a must-try!). The entrance isn't easy to find; navigate to 'Nevsky Art Studio.' Go through the hotel's main entrance and walk inside the building, and you'll see a sign. As shown in P1, you can enter from either side of the building; just look for the 'Art Studio' sign. There's security at the entrance, and the elevator requires a key card, so it's very safe. You can store your luggage at the front desk. After checking in, an attendant will guide you upstairs to your room's reception area to swipe your card and open the corresponding locker for your coat and shoes. Disposable slippers are provided, and the common areas are very clean. For a hostel, the room is quite spacious. I could easily open my 28-inch suitcase inside (I recommend a bottom bunk – it's easier to access luggage while sitting). There's a full-length mirror, a three-tier shelf, a tall clothes rack, and two power outlets. One towel is provided. The privacy is excellent, but I imagine it might get a bit stuffy in the summer. The washbasins and toilets are separate and shared by both genders. Shower gel and shampoo are provided, and the facilities are very new. The mirror light is bright, which is great for makeup (^.^). I didn't fully explore the washing machine, but it looks fully functional and has instructions. The communal kitchen is as pictured, but there are only cups, plates, and two knives for utensils. It seems drinking water isn't provided. The refrigerator storage is a nice touch, with each room getting a small allocated box! Also, note that the drying rack is in front of the fridge, so drying personal items might not be ideal. There's an ironing area. The best part: all the staff are incredibly friendly! The front desk staff were smiling throughout, very approachable. After check-in, a staff member guided me upstairs and helped carry my luggage to the room's reception. The attendant at the room's reception was also super nice! Since I couldn't read Russian, I asked about the train station, and she enthusiastically helped me plan the route and gave me important tips. It was so heartwarming that this hostel made me want to stay in St. Petersburg a little longer (ㄒoㄒ) Highly, highly recommend!!!

Good hostel. It's quite clean, quiet, and peaceful. The location is convenient, with the metro within walking distance. Kazan Cathedral is a 25-minute walk away. The beds are comfortable. Each bed has a locker and two drawers: one under the bed and another on the wall behind the curtain. The common area offers free water, tea, coffee, and sugar. They host evening movie screenings with popcorn. These are quiet and don't disturb guests resting in their rooms. The administrators are very friendly and helpful. There are many foreign tourists and Chinese guests, but even the Chinese guests are not noisy. At first glance, there don't seem to be many showers and restrooms. However, in reality, there are enough, and I never saw any queues. My stay was comfortable.

Perfect youth travel continued to live three times, almost persuaded by the previous comment area, the front desk English is good, the service is warm

There's no sign for the hostel from the street, but you can use the address as a guide, and the entrance will be through an arch with an iron gate. You'll need to ring the bell, and security will open the gate. Pull the door toward you. Then, go straight ahead, and the hostel door will be on the left through the arch. This is the best hostel I've ever stayed at. I recommend it without hesitation, and book for as many days as you need at once. If international apps like Trip.com show no availability, you can contact your receptionist or use Russian booking apps, as sometimes there are availability, but international apps may show no availability. This is a clean and quiet hostel. The staff is very polite and always helpful when I contacted them. Everything you need is nearby: restaurants, bakeries, a Magnit grocery store... The area is good. The shower and toilet are combined, everything is clean. Shower gel, liquid hand soap, and paper towels are provided. The bed linens and towels are clean. The kitchen has everything you need. Breakfast is included: drinking yogurt, coffee, tea, toast, and two types of jam. A toaster, glassware, and metal utensils are available. Upon checkout, we were allowed to leave our suitcase in a special storage room. Incredible place, everything was perfect. Thank you for your hospitality!

Good value hotel, also the staffs are polite and helpful. Walking distance to the famous attractions, the hotel is in front of the road, but it doesn't noisy. If you don't need to have breakfast, you better tell the staff at reception when you go out, we are so sorry for the male staff who had waited us for asking our selection.

The location is good. The room with a bathroom is on the 4th floor - it is very inconvenient to go up the narrow stairs with a suitcase, there is no elevator. A huge plus is that the window overlooks the courtyard - it is not noisy. For 50 rubles you can leave your things in a storage room (a room with video cameras). The water is very bad - the pressure in the shower is very weak, during one shower there was a difference from hot to cold 4 times. Well, it took a very long time to drain the hot water.

Location: Right behind Kazan Cathedral, about a 7-minute walk along the street. Not remote, right on the main street. One of the girls in my room often came back after midnight, so it felt relatively safe to me. Transportation: The metro station is right next to Kazan Cathedral, and the train station is within 3km. However, there's usually no subway, so you have to walk everywhere. After staying a few days, I realized everyone should learn to take the bus; it makes things much easier. Service: The receptionists speak English and are very friendly. Several guests seemed to be regulars—one was over 80, and a few were women in their 40s—but they were all quite nice. Cleanliness: The place was fairly clean. There are four toilets and four shower stalls. Five faucets for washing, all in one place, unisex. To be honest, sometimes using the toilet was a bit awkward and uncomfortable; for example, if you were defecating, there might be two men urinating next to you. Apart from the toilets, I personally thought everything was good.

We liked the apartment, the bed and sofa were comfortable, the linen was fresh and white, the necessary dishes were available, there was also a kettle, a water filter, a microwave oven, a dishwasher (we didn't use it). The view from the window was gorgeous - onto the park. In the mornings it was very nice to have breakfast on the large loggia (there was a table and two chairs) and enjoy the view of nature, and not the neighboring building. You could also see the beautiful St. Petersburg sunrises. Cons: I was a little disappointed that the shower cabin was raised very high from the floor, it was inconvenient to get in/out (and it was even dangerous to get out). And the lighting in the bathroom was very poor, the light bulb barely lit, only the backlit mirror saved the day. And I would like to be given two keys to the door, not one, because if someone left and someone stayed, then you can’t enter the entrance without a key (we rang the intercom, the guy at the reception didn’t open the door for us, it was clear that he was sitting behind the counter, and he raised his head only after we went inside to the elevators together with another guest). And of course, the soundproofing is terrible. At night, our neighbors did not sleep and we along with them, because their loud conversations, laughter were very audible... (but this was only audible in the room with the kitchen, in the other room, apparently, the neighbors were quiet and slept at night, or no one was in there at all). It’s about 20 minutes’ walk to the Zvezdnaya metro station, or 30 minutes at a leisurely pace. The bus stop is nearby (about 5 minutes’ walk). We arrived by car, we found a place to park (you can find a parking space around the houses, but not always), there is a paid parking nearby. Grocery and cosmetic stores, cafes, pharmacies, a canteen, also nearby (on the ground floors of nearby houses). There is even a post office. Overall, we liked it. We recommend it. We would definitely stay in this aparthotel again.

這是一家值得再次入住的青旅。雖然房間小了點，但是地段非常好，到地鐵站才 3 分鐘路程，邊上超市眾多，也有飯店，商場，公交站，去哪裡都很方便。前台小妹妹很耐心。青旅設施也不錯，有寬敞的廚房，在聖彼得堡的幾天，我們每天都可以做自己想吃的早點。工作人員很勤快，經常打掃衞生，每天都會更換房間裏的垃圾袋，公共區域消毒很及時！旅館牆面做了裝飾，是喜歡的風格。
