“A bit of a disappointment”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 July 2011

If I was to return to Moscow I wouldn't stay here again. There were positives - good location, helpful and friendly staff, and clean rooms and bathrooms - but unfortunately they were outweighed by the negatives. The bed wasn't very comfortable and oddly rather noisy. There is also no laundry service at the hotel, which in a city like Moscow (by that I mean an absence of laundromats) is a major nuisance.

“Good value for central Moscow”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 April 2011

Stayed in Petrovka Loft for one night. Very good location in central Moscow, within a walking distance from the Red Square. Nice and helpful staff. However, you must bear in mind, this place is more of a hostel than hotel, and for this type of accommodation it is quite expensive. But then for Moscow, the most overpriced city in the world, it is considered a good value.

“High Standards In This Loft”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 April 2011

Some may say, that without ensuite bathrooms, this is more of a hostel than a hotel but with lots ot toilets and lots of showers all of which are very modern and very very clean and well equipped, this is, to me, a great hotel.
Turn right out of the lane it is in and it's not far to the Bolshoi and Red Square. Turn left and there's an interesting modern art gallery up the street as well as many lovely restaurants. These look to be for the footballer's wives of Moscow - maybe the Ice Hockey player's wives but a ceaper option is a great trendy little supermarket that sells briliant take-away food.
The staff are fantastic - all smiles and helpfuness (and good English).
The rooms are comfortable, very clean and chic with Wi-fi.
They also do a breakfast and great coffee.
Apparently recent research has found Moscow to be one of the most expensive cities in the world. Well, the Petrovka Loft is even more of a bargain then.

“Hard to find - serious aerobic workout climbing the steps”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 December 2010

people found this review helpful

I kind of erred in staying here as I thought it was a hotel. It resembles much more a hostel. It is on the 4th floor of a walk-up, very high floors. It reminded me of climbing deep metro stairs during an escalator failure. The rooms are very small and cramped and not laid out well. There is no wardrobe or chest of drawers, so you essentially have no choice but to dress from your suitcases sitting on the floor (in the way because the room is so small). There were 4 hooks on the wall by the door, so you could hang up some trousers or shirts. The shared bath were very clean and conveniently located.

The hotel is conveniently located to Red Square, the Kremlin and other popular sites. My hotels.com reservation stated that the price I paid included breakfast, but the staff insisted it didn't. Hotels.com advised me that they messaged the hotel advising them it did, but still the staff refused, Anyway, they relented and gave me a cup of coffee each of the two mornings that I stayed there. No harm done. Frankly breakfast is not that important to me, but the experience just appeared disorganized to me. A young man who works there was extraordinarily helpful and personable. Very friendly nice guy and one of a small number of Russians that I can say I met on my trip. He truly made an impression and provided great service.

This is not my type of accommodation. I am not snobby, but honestly, I paid $120 per night here and after my stay, for $200 per night I checked into a very luxurious hotel on Red Square and it had several elevators, full staff and great/professional service, much larger rooms, luxurious breakfast included, and even a fitness center and indoor pool included (didn't get to use the pool). However, because of the great service of the young man at the desk at the Petrovka, I would recommend it to friends but I would make sure they understood that it's more like a hostel than a hotel.

“perfect, nice and clean"”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 December 2010

we stay in Petrovka loft for some days, staff is very gentle and friendly. Position is perfect to visit central Moscow and the hotel has a design touch. Only advice is that there is no elevator and the hotel is at the 4th floor, for old people or traveller with a lot of luggage is not recommended. Bathrooms are outside the rooms but cleans and very comfortables.
