In-Depth Review
Rooms and decor
The rooms are modern and clean rather than fancy — but they have everything you actually need: air-con, a minibar, satellite TV and free Wi-Fi in every room. Cleanliness is the line reviewers come back to, with several guests saying the rooms came out cleaner than they expected from a 3-star rate. Beds are comfortable, linens are changed regularly, and the bathrooms are tidy with decent fittings. Room service runs for meals beyond breakfast, and there is a lift, with a few accessible rooms in the mix.
Food and amenities
The free breakfast at the in-house restaurant draws praise for both range and taste — traditional Russian options alongside international ones, with butter, cheese, eggs, bread and fruit set out fresh each morning. The real headline is the indoor pool, and it earns its keep most in the depths of the Russian winter: more than one guest called a warm swim after a snowy day out the best value of the stay. The sauna is popular with Russian and foreign guests alike, the 24-hour gym stays open round the clock, and free parking is a useful bonus if you have driven in.
Location and getting there
The hotel sits on a quiet city-centre street, just 100 metres from Zelenaya Roshcha (Green Grove) — a shady park made for a morning walk or an after-dinner sit. Geologicheskaya Metro is about 400 metres away and connects you across the city without a taxi. The historic Novo-Tikhvinskiy Convent is in the same area, and Greenwich Shopping Center, the city's main mall, is a short walk. Church on the Blood and the Yeltsin Center are a short trip away by public transport or taxi.
Things to know before booking
The pool and sauna are the reason to book here, but they may carry an extra charge — check whether they are included in your rate rather than assuming. Some areas of the hotel can smell of smoke because smoking is permitted in certain zones, so ask for a room away from them if you are sensitive. And while the park and Metro are on your doorstep, the marquee sights are a short ride out rather than a walk, so budget a little Metro or taxi time for sightseeing days.
Our take
Green Park is for families and travellers who want more than a plain 3-star — chiefly that indoor pool and sauna you won't find at this price elsewhere. The leafy setting beside the park and the 400-metre walk to the Metro make it a genuinely appealing base from around $49 a night. If a pool matters to your trip, this is the strongest pick in its price band.

The Honest Verdict — pros & what to know
- An indoor pool and sauna you almost never find in a 3-star at this price — and a real draw in the Russian winter, when a warm swim after a day in the snow is the whole point.
- Leafy, quiet setting just 100 metres from Zelenaya Roshcha (Green Grove) park, with Geologicheskaya Metro 400 metres away for easy trips across town.
- A steady 9.2/10 on both Booking.com and Agoda — consistent scores from every type of guest, not a one-off.
- Free breakfast at the in-house restaurant, plus free parking that matters if you arrive by car.
- Rooms reviewers repeatedly call cleaner than they expected for the rate, with friendly, smiling staff backing it up.
- Use of the pool and sauna may carry an extra charge — confirm before you book rather than assuming it is included.
- Some parts of the hotel can smell of smoke because smoking is allowed in certain zones.
- Several headline sights — Church on the Blood and the Yeltsin Center — are a short trip away by public transport or taxi rather than on the doorstep.

Insider Tips
- Email or message ahead to check whether the indoor pool and sauna are included in your rate or charged separately, so there are no surprises at check-in.
- Walk the 100 metres into Zelenaya Roshcha park for a morning workout or an after-dinner stroll — it is the quietest green space near the centre.
- Skip the taxi for getting around: it is 400 metres to Geologicheskaya Metro, which connects you to the rest of the city, and Greenwich Shopping Center is a short walk too.
