Accommodation

Where to Stay in Russia?

There are vast amount of options to choose from when it comes to accommodation in Russian cities. Moscow is considered to be among the liveliest places in the country. But bear in mind that accommodation can get a bit pricey in the Russian capital. Tverskaya, Khamovniki Kitay-gorod and Patriarch’s Ponds districts are in high demand. On the other hand, the city center in Krasnodar is probably the best place to stay. Tsentralnyy Okrug is within easy reach from the main highlights, whereas Prikubanskiy Okrug and Karasunskiy Okrug are good alternatives.

Since the cities of Mineralnye Vody and Grozny are pretty compact you can opt for lodging opportunities in the center.
