This hotel was opened in December 1993, it was then the gem of Sochi, it had the best staff, the best food and the best of everything. I visited the hotel in April of 96 with a friend from Moscow. It was excellent, we met some of the management who seemed to be very much all around the hotel, checking... More

It all works here and there is a bit of English spoken here and there. Food not great. Looks like a biggish Radisson anywhere. There is a pool and stuff and everything reasonably efficient. Staff friendly and helpfull. Located just on the outskirts of downtown on the road to the Olympic Park, so a good location but traffic can be... More

Sochi is lacking good hotels. Hopefully in the course of preparing the Winter Games which will be held in 2014, the situation will improve. So far this one is among the best in Sochi, but it is not easy to enjoy it. Lobby, lobby bar, restaurant, rooms - everywhere you see the remains of the 'Perestroyka' times luxury, which stadards...

Large public area's, great pool and gym (fee payable sometimes) and extensive buffet breakfast are the plus points about this hotel. It is slighly outside the main part of Sochi (not walkable) and the journey into the city can take anything from 15mins to 1 hour by cab (traffic is horrendous at times). Rooms are tired but conforable enough. Wifi... More

I have spent two nights in Sochi to see the next winter Olympic sites. After having done lots of research I decided to stay at the Radisson. There are only a handful hotels in Sochi area. A few new one are being built though but were far from being finished in June. This is a four stars hotel in an... More

Stayed one night in Radisson Sochi during my trip to Krasnaya Polyana (the snow resport of Sochi, home of the 2014 Winter Olympics). From the outside you can see, that this at least used to be "the place" to stay in Sochi city. In the lobby they list celebrities etc who stayed sometime in the hotel; names like George W.... More

great hotel, typical large skyscraper hotel and that is carried in to the staff attitude, which was welcoming and positive. The beach is a bit of a distance and a steep hill is discouraging. Eating at the hotel can be very expensive, instead head out to Sochi town centre or the promenade for a better choice. Try the local Russian... More

The hotel is far from the center of Sochi and you should always take a cab (taxi) to get there. The hotel does not provide any free bus shuttle to Sochi or Adler. It is not bother you if all business meetings are in the hotel, but if in Sochi be ready for terrible traffic jams (takes almost an hour... More

We spent 3 nights there with our Russian friends. They had a 2-bedroom cottage and we had a room with a nice view over the Black Sea on the 10th floor. Since they charge outrageous prices we expected at least 4 star service. Sochi is preparing for the 2014 Winter Olympics, so really need to be up to scratch with... More
