“It's quite an experience to stay in a real monastery. The architecture is phenomenal. We went to the early service From 7 AM to 8 AM before breakfast and enjoyed the chanting, the candlelight, and the atmosphere (the order of services is on the wall near the check-in). Neither of us are Russian Orthodox but we were made to feel welcome. We stayed in the winter and it was a great experience to see the monastery in the snow.” Read more

“The hotel is inside the newly rebuild monastery with stunning beauty! The rooms are spacious and clean, meet all of our needs. The young guy at the reception desk is very nice and helpful, answered all of our questions! We also had a simple dinner and breakfast there, which is a very good experience of life in a monastery. Its location is a little remoted from the Kremlin/town center, which makes it quieter, gives us more feeling of a real monastery! We drove there by car, easily found the location. We were also told that it's not hard to go there by taxi from train station or city center (using Yandex.Taxi app to call). We wished we could stay there for more days!” Read more

“It located in a historic monastery and very cozy and suitable for reast.”

“Very clean and quite place with all necessary facilities. Close to the Rostov Kremlin - main tourist attraction in the area. Very friendly staff.”

“Although the monastery is 6km outside of the town we still felt happy to have chosen to stay here for the experience of staying in a monastery. The rooms were spotlessly clean and comfortable. The staff made a great effort to help us with getting the bus to town and later a taxi to the train station. It was good value for money.” Read more

“Beautiful place, really lovely. A little too far away from town, but this is charm of it. Simple good food.”

“The rooms are clean, quiet and spatious. Although the weather was hot and there is no airco or fan, the rooms were cool. But.... be aware the in summer daylight starts at 3'30 am and the curtains are light coloured and thin. So it far from dark in the room. The Wifi is fast. The location inside the monastry is superb, but you need your own transport to get to shops etc (2,5 km away).” Read more
