Luxury
- Crowne Plaza Moscow World Trade Center (12 Krasnopresnenskaya

historical heart. Newly renovated. Especially good for the business traveler.
Features spacious rooms, friendly staff and wide range of dining options.
- The
Ritz-Carlton (Tverskaya ulitsa 3/5, Moscow). For one of the top hotels
in one of the world's most expensive cities, be prepared to pay at the Ritz
Carlton. Although only completed in 2007, the 19th century styling looks authentic
with an old world style, look and feel. The staff is fluent in English and
is helpful and professional. The astonishingly high rates for this hotel though,
do not feel justified.
- Hotel
Baltschug Kempinski Moscow (ul. Balchug, 1, +7 (495) 230 5500) Checkin:
15:00; checkout: 12:00. Hotel is located facing the Red Square and St.Basil's

ideally located next to the Red Square. Rooms are spacious, clean and comfortable,
with plasma TV's, minibars and more. Internet use is extremely pricey though
at 16 rubles a minute.
- Golden Ring
Hotel, (Smolenskaya ulitsa, 5, Moscow 119121) The hotel is also attached
to a casino and is a 5 minute walk to Arbat Street and the Foreign Ministry
building). Views from the rooms are fantastic, and the hotel is located near
all the main tourist sites. However, as the large majority of their clientele
are business travelers, they would do well to implement Wi-Fi access, (no
free Wi-Fi at the hotel).
