Assambleya Nikitskaya Hotel

Affordable Hotel In the Heart of Moscow's Shopping District

Near to Museums, Malls, and Metro Stations

The four-star Assambleya Nikitskaya Hotel is located within Moscow's Boulevard Ring, making it easy to travel in and around the city. Cultural attractions like the State Historical Museum, the Bolshoi, and the Moscow Conservatory are all located nearby, and Moscow's most iconic landmark, the Kremlin, is less than a mile away. The enormous GUM state department store complex is within easy reach and caters to shopaholics.

A local metro station provides an easy and affordable way to travel around. Bicycles are available for hire if you prefer to sightsee on wheels. Helpful concierge staff are on hand to arrange airport transfers, day trips, and to recommend local restaurants.

Budget Breakfast and Room Service

A continental breakfast is served in the hotel's restaurant, and a room service menu is available for those who want to dine in-room. The lobby bar is an inexpensive place to enjoy fresh coffee, refreshing beverages, and snacks throughout the day.

The hotel lacks a swimming pool, spa, or gym, but the use of a nearby state-of-the-art fitness center is available at a discounted rate for hotel guests. On-site parking is free, but spaces are limited.

Economical Rooms and Apartment Style Suites

Rooms at the Assambleya Nikitskaya Hotel have a host of amenities like LCD TVs, tea and coffee-making facilities, and high-speed WiFi. The decor in the rooms and suites are somewhat dated, and some have gaudy bedspreads and curtains. However, what the apartment-style rooms lack in style, they make up for in space with separate dining and bedrooms, as well as a fully equipped kitchen which lets you save some extra money on your Moscow getaway. Complimentary turn-down service, tempurpedic mattresses, blackout curtains, soft robes, slippers, and L'Occitane bath products are nice touches. Optional extras like roll away beds, microwaves, and ironing boards are available on request.

The Bottom Line

If modern design and inspiring decor is your thing, then you will want to avoid the Assambleya Nikitskaya Hotel and instead book a stay in the five-star Swisshotel Krasnye Holmy Moscow or at the four-star Mercure Arbat Moscow. Just a few simple refurbishments could take the 29-room hotel from drab to desirable, yet it's probably the dated decor that helps keep the Assambleya Nikitskaya Hotel's rates down. Overall, budget conscious travelers who want a convenient base for their trip will fare well booking a stay in this small hotel.
