Maxima Panorama Hotel

“Right next to metro”

I stayed here with my husband during our stay in moscow to watch fifa world cup. We stayed here for 3 nights during July 2018. It is right next to the metro station, very easy to commute. First day we arrived here we were not able to locate the hotel as the name was written in Russian only. We stayed at 11th floor, it was quite nice and peaceful. The room was very small but clean. The staff at reception was good and they could understand little bit english. The have hotel at ground floor, although it's a bit expensive but in emergency you can have food over there. The chocolate mousse was really tasty. I would recommend this hotel for stay as it has very good connectivity to metro.

“Nice hotel”

Stayed with my wife at Maxima Panorama in Moscow between August 27th to September 4th 2018. The Avtozavodskaya metro station is some 15 meters from the hotel entrance - the best advantage of this hotel (to my mind). The no. 2 (green) line brings you to the Red Square within less than 10 minutes ... more

Stayed with my wife at Maxima Panorama in Moscow between August 27th to September 4th 2018. The Avtozavodskaya metro station is some 15 meters from the hotel entrance - the best advantage of this hotel (to my mind). The no. 2 (green) line brings you to the Red Square within less than 10 minutes (3 stops in all). The hotel is clean and quiet, they assure a good level room service. The hotel supplies 2 levels of WhFi: one free, and one - faster, at a price I did not ask about, as the free WiFi was one of the best I ever met at a hotel (both speed and strength). As the first days were quite hot (30C), we used the air conditioner, and it proved to be very useful, once again one of the best we ever met in hotels. We had the check in before 12.00, it was fast and without any problem. The reception staff was polite and helpful, they helped us to print in seconds a copy of the flight boarding pass which I received on my tablet. The breakfast was OK, not a very large variety, but fresh and tasty. The only drawback I can mention was the mini bar: Don't try to keep fresh food you bought at a decent temperature, because the mini bar can assure no less than 16C (!), and this was confirmed by the reception lady when I complained about it. As a conclusion: A good hotel, I should definitely stay here again.

“Manual therapy conference”

Very nice Event place with all right technology for the presentation. Now the air conditioner was a bit loud at the end of day the conference went well. Also breaks and little canapé s were fine and quite delicious.

“Refusal to allow early checkin left a sour taste in my mouth”

Arrived here at 10am on the day of FIFA world cup finals and was told to come back at 2pm since no rooms were available until 2pm. Had to kill time roaming in Riviera mall nearby. At 2pm there was a long queue of tired guests waiting to get checked in. Only one of the 2 front desk personnel was able to communicate in English and the rest of the guests, who were all foreign spectators, had to endure the wait. Our passports were collected since the understaffed front desk decided to hand over access cards first and do visitor registration later once everyone had been sent to their respective rooms. Never faced this at any other hotel. The last thing I want is to lose my passport in a foreign country. Thankfully, I was able to collect it from front desk an hour later. There's a bus stop as well as a metro station nearby and this was really convenient for traveling from/to airport and Luzhniki stadium. Lobby has a restaurant adjacent to it and I also spotted a Pizza Hut outside the hotel. Post game I had to leave the hotel at 10pm to catch a train so I didn't get to experience all the amenities. The room itself was OK and I was assigned to one of the higher floors from where the view was great. Would have given 5 stars if they had allowed me to check in early since I needed the room only for 8 hours to store my stuff and freshen up before heading to Luzhniki stadium. Maybe it was a busy day and on any other day of the year my stay probably would have been better. But since I availed a best price guarantee bonus on this one from a travel website I guess it wasn't bad after all.
