Traveller Reviews on Minsk

Victoria Hotel

4 of 5 stars
California
10 Dec 2008

Being my first time in eastern Europe, I kept my expectations low and ended up surprisingly satisfied. I was amazed at the environmentally friendly design of the rooms in that the room key also controlled the lights so that you'd never leave the room without turning off the lights. The service was great and although not all staff spoke English... more

The one tourist destination in Minsk. Decent food at a decent price in a touristy setting. Nice outdoor patio when the expat guests aren't abusing their cell phones. My favorite place in Minsk, but honestly, it's Minsk. more

Victoria Hotel

4 of 5 stars
Banbury, England
27 Oct 2008

I stayed at the Victoria for 6 nights as a business traveller in October 2008. This modern establishment, completed in 2007, is a competitive alternative to other higher category hotels in the city. The location is good, if not slightly removed from the city centre, but on one of the main highways of Minsk. Prices for rooms are similar to... more

21 Oct 2008

As others have written, this would definitely be a three star Ibis or Best Western anywhere else in the world, but in Belarus its the number three hotel in the country (after the Hotel Europe and Crowne Plaza) and seems very proud of its four star status. To its credit, there's not so much evidence of the Soviet era mentality... more

Best Eastern Hotel Belarus

3 of 5 stars
Bedfordshire, England
20 Oct 2008

Recently stayed at the Belarus for a two night break whilst attending the Belarus v England football match. I stayed in a 'Buisness Class' Room, which was probably a round $10 more expensive although I am not sure what this additional extra $10 got me. The room didnt look as if it had recently been refurbished but it was clean... more

19 Oct 2008

Stayed here for one night in October. Loved it - the decor is a really refreshing change from the usual modern Holiday Inn / Novotel boring style. We were given a 2 room suite looking out towards the Dinamo Minsk stadium. Nice wooden floor with rugs, pot plants and wooden 70s style furniture and beds. The rooms also had their... more

Stayed at this hotel for 2 nights whilst in Minsk to see a sporting event. Firstly the positives, the hotel itself is in a fairly good location. No more than a 10min walk from the city centre and within walking distance of the dinamo stadium (if you are there for a sporting event like we were). First impressions were pretty... more

It was a different city to look through. There is not much for helping the tourist and if you want an english speaking hotel I suggest the Hotel Planet as all staff spoke English. I took the Metro most places as it was 15min walk from my hotel it was not much of a walk and you go past a... more

Smolyany

5 of 5 stars
Minsk, Belarus
7 Oct 2008

A place Smolyany is situated on the road to Vitebsk from Minsk. When I came there, i thought it is awful- for the first seconds. But then I reakized, that the history is right in front, and these old churches and buildings are worth renewing but still breese like centuries more

Khatyn Memorial

Minsk, Belarus
7 Oct 2008

A very interesting place and a great history. Noone will leave without thinking of how it was hard and how the belarussians did it. Every 4 seconds, when the bells ring it touchs everyones heart more

Minsk Sea

Minsk, Belarus
7 Oct 2008

To visit a Minsk Sea- is to spend a wonderful day watching the view, walking in parks, visiting various bars and restaurants, playing diffenert games and simply having fun. If you have plenty of time- just take a car- or taxi- and go there- the nearest beach is №1- and you can get there from Gdanovichy road. It is the... more

For this part of the world it was a nice surprise. The rooms have 2 single beds but are nicely decorated and the bedding is quite comfortable. Large bathroom. Free wi-fi in the lobby only. more

Victoria Hotel

London
18 Sep 2008

Just come back from a business trip to Minsk staying at the Victoria for 2 nights. I have no idea whether the hotel is central or not- as I only left it to go back to the airport (which is 48 kms away!) but there seemed to be nothing obvious around to suggest a town centre/ shops nearby. Having said... more

Overtime Night Club

1/1 found this review helpful

The face controll makes this place filled with good-looking people; no prostitutes, the biggest bar in Minsk, nice music. The entrance fee is 10-20 USD. Sometimes they do not let you in just because the club overcrowded and they see you at Overtime for the frist time. more

Sem Komnat Restaurant

17 Sep 2008

There are few separated rooms in the restaurant with different style so you can choose one for you. This place is rather spacious that's why free tables are usually available except weekend evening. more

Hotel Minsk

10 Sep 2008

Stayed August 2008. Decent location if you need to be central but the room was nothing spectacular. There's no way this would be 4* in Western Europe. Just a standard hotel room really, but the bed was hard and lumpy and the linen wasn't exactly crisp. TV is appalling with the only English channels being CNN and MSNBC - if... more

This hotel is very conveniently located near the Palace of the Republic and the Presidential residence. It made me feel extra safe to walk past the presidential guards when I came home at night. The hotel doesn't look as fresh in person as it does on their web site, but it's clean everywhere and the staff is universally friendly. This... more

Germany, Haltern am See
29 Jul 2008

The Hotel Minsk is a great hotel with a high standard in my opinion. I stayed there for one night as a part of a business trip. The room was very good and clean. Reception was riendly and I did not have any problems with my credit card. Credit Cards which worked (I know from personal experience): American Express (takes... more

Aquabel

26 Jul 2008

Well, inspired by all advertising and reviews I finally decided to visit the place to include it... Well, to add on my list so to speak. Address is 50 Logoisky Trakt. The business center and Alfa (or sth like this) restaurant are still there but a bored to death security chap said that the hotel was closed. A half of... more
