We booked Pio for 5 nights after reading some good reviews about the place. We booked and payd our room several weeks in advance but when we arrived we where told that our room was not available. They said the people in our room couldnt make their flight home and the hotel aloud them to stay an extra night. Maybe... More

Having seen mostly positive feedbacks of the B&B, I took my chances. I stayed there from 1-5 September this year and can only say good things about the staff and the location. Location is prime ! If you are like me and need to be in the centre of the city then that’s the place to stay. The B&B is... More

I do not recommend staying at Hotel Pio. After our first night, we were told that the hotel had been over booked and that we needed to transfer to another hotel. The first alternative that was offered, was Hotel St Peterburg, which is an additional 2km from the city center and on the Vyborg Side. This was too far away... More

They also have a laptop with internet access available and offered a very... More

The office staff speak good English and are VERY helpful and friendly. They had recommendations of where to eat, how to get around, etc. The rooms are... More

Stayed here in July 2007 and found it a good base for sight-seeing. The street door and inside staircase are a poor advert for the hotel which is clean and modern inside. Our room had its own bathroom which looked new and the room was very comfortable. The staff speak English and the girl on reception was really nice and... More
