Dark and cheerless, the only thing the Ekspress has going for it are its cheap prices and convenient location, smack dab between the central bus station and the train station.

If you want no surprises and no hassles, you won't be disappointed with Hotel Minsk. Service is everything it should be - no more, no less - while the smallish, Western-standard, chain-style room…

Of the three big Soviet-style hotels in this area, Planeta probably has the most class and taste. The economy rooms are typical sovok, (Soviet-style) although the bathrooms have been upgraded. Th…

Within its price range, there is nothing that stands out about the Turist's typically sovok (Soviet-style) remodelled rooms, although pink curtains give them a pleasant rosy light. While it isn't…

Hotel Yubileiny is a typical sovok (Soviet-style) place with not much to distinguish it from others of the like. However, sports fans might prefer this place, as visiting athletes competing at th…

Strange, but this four-storey construction has a sort of regional airport feel, with its all-glass facade, brick interior walls and quiet carpeted hallways. Rooms are tidy and trim, with minimal …

Sweet lil' Zhuravinka gives its competition a run for its money, but book in advance: there are only 18 possible vacancies. It has a bowling alley on-site, and seems to be a hotspot for Belarusia…

Lonely Planet review

Dank, dark and slightly creepy - all what you'd want and expect from a hotel stuck in the Soviet 1960s. The staff are friendly, though. Single males can expect regular late-night calls from sex w…

This stately building with neoclassical entryway and pagan-themed murals has seen better days (we hope). On the dreary side, but the rooms are spacious and have a certain old-world charm. If your…

This is the only hotel in town, with average but adequate rooms. Its restaurant serves a mediocre meal, which will do nicely in a pinch.

In a typical 1970s high-rise; rooms are clean and functional, if a bit austere. From pl Savetskaja, take trolleybus 1 or bus 3, the latter originating from the train station.

A bit pricier than the rest, but head over heels better too. Pleasant, quaint and as comfy as your granny's home (all rooms have TV and fridge), the hotel is surrounded by peaceful, green streets…

A burst of modernity on the Hrodna scene (save for the old-world security goons who size you up suspiciously as you enter). Rooms are comfortable and secure, if on the official side. You won't fi…

With 300 beds and the classic concrete look of a huge bomb shelter, the Vetrazh is a standard post-Soviet hotel just south of the city centre (tram 4 from the bus and train stations goes there).
