Original Sokos Hotel Olympia Garden

The experience was not good, the room was not cleaned, the quilt was messy after entering the house, the mineral water was drunk, but it was not thrown away!

Was there for 6 days in December 2023. Standard room. Overall, I was disappointed because, having studied the reviews and based on the popularity of the network, I expected more. More coziness, comfort and care first of all. But I didn't get this. Alas. First, about the advantages. The location is convenient. 5 minutes to the metro station Technological Institute. There is a bus stop very close. I can’t say that there are an abundance of cafes and restaurants in the immediate vicinity. Dinner was difficult. But overall the area is beautiful and lively. At the same time, the hotel is in a quiet location. In the room I liked the warm floor in the bathroom and thick curtains. Now about what I didn't like. Bed. In fact, it’s not even a bed, but a trestle bed made from a pile of mattresses, which sways under you and while you sleep, the mattresses spread out in different directions. I felt like a sprat on a multi-layer sandwich. Above the bed on the ceiling exactly in the middle of the room, a red light flashes 24 hours. They said it couldn't be turned off - it was a fire alarm. This is the first time I've seen this. You lie on the bed - it blinks. I didn't like the breakfast. Yes, there is a fireplace in the hall. It's been burning since morning. And the hall as a whole is beautiful. And yes, they serve champagne. For breakfast. But what I expect from breakfast, first of all, is the enjoyment of food, which did not happen. 6 days the same dishes: even hot dishes and porridges do not change. Not even the bread is tasty. And in general there is no particular variety of bread and pastries. Pre-cooked eggs, 2 types. Sausage 3 types. Well, you won't remain hungry for sure. But I've read a lot of reviews about great breakfasts. I was disappointed. The water in the shower barely flows in a thin trickle. I understand, apparently this is saving resources. But it’s problematic to wet my head with such a stream, and then I spend the same amount of water due to the duration of the procedures. Showering like this is not fun. But of course you can perform hygiene procedures. In general, there was a feeling that no one cared and this was some kind of temporary residence: I crawled in, rested, and went about my business. So in principle it is, of course. But in a hotel and even 4*, as it is positioned, I would like more coziness, comfort and hospitality.

I really liked the hotel. Located in a convenient location, not far from the metro. I stayed in a standard room. The room is spacious, comfortable bed, clean linen and towels. The room has a refrigerator, kettle, safe. It was very cozy. The view from the window is not very good, but this is not important in principle. The buffet is excellent - 5+. On the -1st floor there is a mini sports room, hammam, sauna. There is a sports bar on the 1st floor. The hotel has underground parking
