The hotel has been built probably in the good old Soviet era. It has been renovated, but the sorroundings are very broken down. It is in the forest, out of the town. Really quiet place, with lots of huge mosquitos. The staff can not speak any other languages than Russian, and not too helpful. They didn't find my reservation, although almost empty, just gave me room after the pressure from my Russian colleague who had to make some phone calls. Food is average Russian, nothing special. Beer is available, but they run out of it quickly. For breakfast you need to select a menu, no buffet. The worst part is the internet connection. It is the usual stupid Russian system. There are two versions, but need Russian telephone, and code number, of course foreigners are excluded from this service. It is really a crap. Rooms are clean and neat. The blankets are very good, made of some natural material, you do no sweat under plastic layer. The lounge music (in June!) was only American / International Christmas songs, repeated all over the three days during my stay, they probably have only one CD. I know Amaks hotel chain in Russia. All others Amaks hotels are better, this is so far the worst. Don't go there unless it is...
Read moreI stayed for 4 nights in this beautiful situated hotel. I would have given a more positive appreciation but some facts are terrible. First negative point: nobody in this hotel speaks a word in another language than russian which makes it difficult for a foreign tourist to communicate. Second point: they put us in the 5 floor where renovations are made. The rooms where new but some works weren't finished:no curtains to make it dark, some lamps were missing, electrical material hanging out of the wall. The entire floor was on renovation,beds,matrasses,chairs,dirt,construction material was lying around, you had to climbe over it while entering your room.|Breakfast was good, the rooms and the hotel is clean. This hotel could be a good adress but unfortunately a lot of things don't work. Tambow is a very nice interesting town which will be visited more and more by foreigners and needs...
