We spent 2 nights here in June 2008. It was our first time to Russia - we were somewhat sceptical of this former communist country and didn't know what to expect. We were however pleasantly surprised by the cleanliness and size of our room. We were also pleased with the quality of breakfast served. An odd thing about some of... more

I stayed at Holiday Inn Lesnaya on 15-17 June 2008. First I thought that the location is not good, because I had asked for a more central location. Then I realised that actually the location is very good. It is located at the beginning of the Leningradskyi prospekt, which means that if you arrive by plane to Sheremetyevo and take... more

I booked this hotel on my first visit to Moscow in May 2007 and I liked it very much so I decided to return there in November. The location is good the metro station is 100m from the hotel. You don't have to change lines to go to the center. The hotel is new, with modern rooms, relatively big and... more

Stayed in this hotel for 3 nights when the England football team was playing Russia I normally budget myself 100GBP per night but this place was nearly £200 (that's Moscow though). Check-in was quick and efficent and the staff were friendly. My room was a good size and clean. I ordered room service one evening and the quality of the... more

I was staying one night in the hotel. Coming from Domodedovo, it took approx. 1 hour (in the night time, no traffic jams) to get to the hotel. The price of the room compared to European standards is very high. However, compared to Moscow prices this hotel would be around mid class, which corresponds to the quality provided. The room... more

This is the most expensive holiday inn I ever stayed (over US$350) but it is purely due to the high living costs in Moscow and there is nothing fancy about the hotel. The hotel is clean and spacious enough for business travellers. It is on the edge of city centre and not far from the subway. No interesting places or... more

Spent quite an enjoyable week here on business. This was not our intended hotel. We were meant to be in Holiday Inn Sokolniki, across town. But when we checked in there, we realised the booking agent had switched us without telling us . . very naughty, probably a scam. Check your voucher carefully! Anyway H.I. Lesnaya seemed a bit more... more

I stayed in the Lesnaya with a friend when we travelled over to Moscow for the Russia V England football match. As with all Moscow hotels, this is not inexpensive, however, we stayed on Holiday Inn points and so there was no direct cost to us. Speaking to others in the hotel, it appeared that most had done the same.... more

The hotel was bright and welcoming, all the staff were helpful and friendly, The rooms are spacious and clean. Breakfast was not included for us, it worked out about £10-15 each, which is the most expensive breakfast i have had. That said there was a good selection. The food for lunch and dinner was a good selection as well. Moscow... more
