The hotel is very conveniently located with a metro station right out of the front door. Easy and fast connections to the center of Moscow (10 minutes to Red Square). The rooms are not spacious but clean, beds are good, and the hotel has several non-smoking floors. The staff speaks English, and everyone I dealt with was friendly and helpful. Breakfast […] is plentiful. I would definitely stay there again. Read more

Its ok, but it is too dificult to find it. the breakfast room its too old, I think the building its a office building rather than a hotel building

Genuine Expedia guest review

The hotel is a very good deal for the location in Moscow, and it's entrance is just right next to the subway station. It is clean, bathrooms, towels, TVs are new. However, it is kind of minimalistic: there was no shampoo/conditioner, but only shower gel was provided, bed has very cheap (yet clean) mattress and pillows. Room service was provided after […] my second reminder. Breakfast is good for the price. Safe is located at the reception and can be rented for 50 rubles per day. There is no even simple coffee maker in a room. You can order it if pay extra 150 rubles (5 $) for room delivery, sounds quite ridiculous. Read more

Maxima Panorama hotel is located next to the metro station "Avtozavodskaya", which is a plus. Rooms are clean. However: 1. There is bad smell in bathrooms, due to the sewage design. I had to put a towel over the drain in the bathroom to partially remedy that. 2. The food at breakfast in the restaurant, and in the cafeteria, is mediocre. 3. Hotel TV […] has Euronews in several languages, and BBC, but reception is bad. Read more

Very pleased with the hotel overall. Extremely convenient to the metro, and 3 stops to the heart of the city

One great thing about this hotel is that kids stay free if you don't need extra bed. Book a room for 2 adults rather than 3 people and save lots of $. Hotel's location is good, 1 station from circular line, right near the metro. The restaraunt is good, FREE full breakfast buffet has lots of choices. Some services were moved out into more expensive […] band this year. I booked standard room, this year safe is not for standard rooms, so I had to rent a deposit box (50rub/day). Also WiFi was free 3 hour/day is (never reached the limit), got a bit better (4 bars vs 1 bar last year), but still it's very slow (~250MBps). Room service was kind of strange. Usually they make your room around noon, in this hotel they did that after 2-3pm (not sure exactly when). One time they forgot to put soap so that we had to wash hands with shampoo, ordered soap came an hour later, surprisingly they forgot to put shampoo/shower gel next day. Rest/shower room was OK, although for my wife it was impossible to shower without lots of water on the floor (little attempt to arrange shower curtain fixes that), shower soap shelve was always taking off/didn't stay in. There was plumbing-like smell coming out from restroom which seems to have been fixed by always closing the toilet. Fine. The reception staff is friendly and speak English well. Reception area is near bar and it's quite hard to stay there for long time as air is full of smoke. Overall stay was OK, acceptable for a few days. Read more

Worked for us. Good choice for Moscow downtown. Clean and friendly. Checked us in early. Helpful staff

Genuine Expedia guest review

I was thrilled to see that the entrance to the Moscow Metro was directly outside the entrance to the hotel. VERY convenient for sightseeing. The room was clean. The bed was comfortable. The front desk staff spoke English. Only con is that although I was in a non-smoking room, the hallway smelled heavily of cigarette smoke, and that seeped into the room […] a little bit. Read more

I was delighted with this hotel. The location and the quality of the room made it an outstanding value. The people working at the desk were excellent--very bright and very helpful. My room was clean and in good condition. The shower worked quite well. The entrance to a metro station was just a few steps from the entrance to the hotel. That station is […] on the green line, which goes directly to a station near the Kremlin. The daily room rate was reasonable. The breakfast buffet was all right by Moscow standards. My only criticism would be that the restaurant in the hotel did not have a sensible, mainstream menu. The quality of that restaurant did not justify the attempt to add exotic touches to the dishes that were prepared. And the service in the restaurant often was slow. But there are better places to eat nearby. Over all, the hotel was an excellent value. Read more

Great location for business travelers. Region is easiest if you can read Russian. Overall wonderful value for price.

Although hotel is located outside ring road, it is fairly easy to catch the metro just outside hotel and go three stops to Red Square (about 15 minutes). The staff speaks English and were helpful. We were even able to get a bag of ice from the hotel lobby. The breakfast was more than adequate and consists of hot and cold food as well as fruit, juice, […] coffee and tea. We were not sure we could find the hotel on the metro so we took an overpriced taxi from the airport. It took 70 minutes in the traffic to get there. I would suggest booking a transfer in advance. We were able to take the metro to the Leningradsky Rail Station for our train to St. Petersburg without any problem. There is a market and a Burger King very close to hotel on same side of street.

I was in Moscow to conduct some research and found the hotel to be a comfortable base of operations and a very good value for what I paid. Undoubtedly, its close proximity to the Avtozavodskaya metro station was key, and it's only a matter of minutes to the central Moscow stations and key tourist spots. The staff were helpful in finding me a nonsmoking […] room before the usual check-in time, allowing me to use their printer in a pinch, ordering a taxi for the airport, and providing a snack for me when I needed to leave the hotel before breakfast opened for the morning. I had fast and free wi-fi service in my room, which was clean (including the shower). During the night, it was quiet on my floor, and I found my fellow guests to be pleasant and respectful of their neighbors. The breakfast buffet was good, even for someone like me who doesn't eat much meat. I would stay here again as a single traveler. If I had brought family, though, I may have opted for a hotel with more family-related amenities, such as an indoor pool. Read more

This hotel is very conveniently located for businessmen desiring easy access to the metro and other locations in this part of southeast Moscow. The hotel provides free internet and is reasonably priced for Moscow.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

My family just returned from Moscow. We stayed at the Maxima Panorama Hotel because of the reviews regarding the location and the price was affordable compared to other locations. The hotel location is a few feet from the metro stop on line 2. Just three stops and you're in the Red Square. We used the metro to get to the various locations without any […] of the typical problems when you first learn a city's metro system. The hotel was just fine for my family. The front desk personal spoke English well. The breakfast was very adequate. We arranged with the hotel for a driver to pick us up at the train station since we arrived from St. Petersburg (1100 Rubles). We also used the hotel to arrange a ride to the airport (2000 Rubles). For the money and the convenience of the hotel I would stay there again. Read more

This hotel is very conveniently located for those who have business in the south-east area of Moscow. The metro station Avtozavodskaya is only a few feet away from the hotel and very convenient. 3 stations away from a station close to the Kremlin if desired. Hotel has free internet in repeatable 3 hour segments or all day for an additional charge. Free […] breakfast is included. Rooms have work desk, double bed and shower. Read more

Our stay at the Maxima in Moscow was very pleasant. The room was clean, the staff friendly and our stay very pleasant. The breakfast choices were fantastic.

This was a very nice property and the staff were extremely friendly and helpful in every regard. The room was very comfortable, but a\the room was bit hot so the serviceman came up to turn the heat down for us and connect the TV. All our requests were handled immediately. The breakfast was great and the hotel is right next to the Metro which was super […] convenient. With the rising prices of hotels in Moscow I will definitely choose this hotel again without hesitation. Read more

Given how expensive Moscow is, this hotel is at the sweet spot: far enough out to be reasonable, not so far as to be inconvenient. The metro station is literally right in front, so you can be in the very heart of the city in 10 minutes. The area is so-so: not dangerous, just not exactly beautiful, but there is a handy Teremok bliny cafe, a pharmacy, […] etc. It's a new hotel with free wifi and a decent breakfast (in, to be sure, an outrageously tackily decorated restaurant) and I'd very definitely come here again.

I was very happy with the accommodations at Maxima Panorama. The cost of the hotel was quite reasonable when I stayed there in early March, though a week later, for a one-night stay, I had to pay considerably more because suddenly it was high season (I think that was true). The hotel is in a mixed commercial and residential area, so not an address near […] any of the tourist destinations. It had the great advantage of being right at the Avtosavodskaya metro station (you exit the station, the hotel is a few steps away). This made travel into the center very easy (travel time to Teatralnaya about 15 minutes) Connection with Air Express to either Domodedovo or Sheremetovo was also very simple. The few times I spoke to anyone at the desk, the person on duty spoke English. The room was clean and quiet. The breakfast was hearty and free. Complaints? The mini-bar fridge did not generate any coolness let alone cold. Read more

This was rather pleasant experience. Price (via hotels.com) was excellent, very close to Metro station (along green line, the one that takes you from Domodedovo airoport). Clean, quite, free internet, nice restaurant on-site, English-speaking reception, bar 24/7, etc.

After staying in St Petersburg in a horrendous hotel, I was really glad to stay in this nice hotel in Moscow. Hotel prices in Russia are quite expensive. This was a good value for the money. It is clean, modern, comfortable, staff speak proper english, and breakfast is good enough. The best thing is its location, just in front of the metro station, […] and three stops from the city center. Highly recommended for a budget traveler, looking for something better than a hostel.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Hotels in central Moscow are very expensive, so I was prepared to incur in the trade off of a somehow distant location for the sake of a more reasonable rate -not bad if you realize that the Moscow subway provides a superb service, it is amazing how frequent it runs and the hotel is located just off a station 12 minutes away from the heart of Moscow. […] Now, if you want to party beyond 1 AM that location may not work for you. I never took a cab but I understand that they can rip you off. My only complain was with the breakfast-included in the rate-: abundant, yes, but not of a good quality standard, sour staff and noisy music, not the nicest way to star the day. Read more

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

We thought the location, amenities (which included a disco bar with a D.J. who sang) friendliness of the staff and overall appearance of the hotel was great. In Russia the hotel staff don't often speak much English which can be a problem but the staff at Maxima spoke excellent English and were most helpful. It was very nice for the money.

Entrance to the hotel is located right next to metro station, which is very convenient. It is also on the same line with Belorusskaya station which makes transfer to Sheremetyevo airport a breeze.Neighbourhood is hardly glamorous, just your regular urban scene. Hotel is located on the top floors of a high rise. Very clean smaller rooms with extremely […] comfortable beds. Cheap in-room mini-bars. No coffee makers. Awesome continental breakfast. We highly recommend the place. Read more

great location... just in front of the metro station, just 3 stops away from all major attractions and in the same line that connects with domodoevo and sheremetyevo airport aeroexpress... i definitly recomend it

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

The best thing of the hotel is that it is right in front of the metro station and only 3 stops away from all the major sights, that makes it very easy to move around and get everywhere very fast... About the hotel itself the rooms are a little bit small bust just enough space for a nice bed and a nice bath and for me that is just perfect...

Basic, clean and secure room

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

This hotel is overpriced for what it offers. The only 2 good things are: subway station proximity and free breakfast. The most ridiculous thing you will find out after booking a Double room is that you actually get a room with 2 twin beds put together - very uncomfortable!! Most of the the Double rooms are that way. And if you complain at the front […] desk they will simply tell you there are no other rooms available. I would not recommend this hotel. For the price I paid ($199 with tax per night) I could get a better hotel, like Holiday Inn. Read more

Located right on top of a Metro station only a few stops from the centre of Moscow, the price was much less than hotels in the main tourist area, while still being of excellent quality. English speaking staff were happy to process our visa registrations. Breakfast was a typical Russian-style hotel buffet, the previously mentioned dance music was still […] there, but wasn't an issue for us. A number of convenience and food stores were located in the area, but nothing much else of note for tourists. For eating out you'll need to eat at the hotel restaurant or catch the Metro to the middle of town. or settle for something from a Russian fast food joint nearby. Read more

We stayed at the Maxima Panorama in July and were very happy with the hotel. It is is a great location, close to the Metro and the staff were unbelievably helpful. We would definately recommend this hotel and caution that you may be concerned by its location and lack of 'street frontage' but it really is a very good hotel.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

As Moscow traffic jams increase in intensity, the convenience of the hotel's location next to the Avtozavodskaya metro gains significance. For both business and leisure trips, it's best to get around Moscow as the locals do - use the underground. It's cheap and quick, if not overcrowded at peak periods. Nevertheless, if the train's full, just leave […] it to go; there'll be another one along within a minute. The hotel's also easier to reach from Domodedovo than other central Moscow establishments. It was noticable on this repeat trip that all reception staff now speak English, although not all the waiters in the attached restaurant do the same. Nevertheless, the a la carte food there is good Russian fare at reasonable cost, although the breakfast offering could be improved (omelettes, perhaps?). The room was clean and large. (I took a double room for single use). Also, on this occasion, the free wifi was strong and constant. Overlall, the hotel still remains good value for money in Moscow terms. Read more

Nice hotel - when you get out of metro follow signs for burger king (which no longer exsists) and it will be on your left hand side. Good facilities staff that speak english very helpful. Room very clean and good amenities.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

I'd always assumed that there was no such thing as a reasonably-priced, reasonably comfortable hotel in Moscow with friendly, helpful receptionists but the Maxima Panorama proved me wrong. On this occasion I was travelling alone so booked a single room but was upgraded - for no extra charge - to a double. The rooms and bathrooms are clean and comfortable, […] though the shower gel and shampoo come in annoying sachets that are quite difficult to open, particularly with wet hands. The breakfast was okay but could easily be improved, perhaps by including more typically Russian elements such as kefir and tvorog (cottage cheese). Breakfast is in the rather depressing "Hunting Lodge" restaurant decorated with bad paintings of bears and rutting deer plus the odd stuffed (or papier mache?) pheasant. A strange accompaniment to breakfast! I also would not recommend eating in the ground floor bar. It offers a very basic menu of items which, I suspect, the barman microwaves to order. On a more positive note, the mini-bar and phone charges were very reasonable and the location is very convenient - it could not be closer to Avtozavodskaya metro station which is just one stop away from Paveletsky Station (the terminal for trains coming in from Domodedovo Airport) and, in the other direction, one stop away from Kolomenskoe Park and Museum which I would highly recommend.

A good value hotel - really clean and comfortable, and the metro is literally at the front door (so once you get the hang of the metro - not too hard - it is really easy to get around).

We stayed there 4 nights and were very satisfied with cleanninness of the place, nice breakfasts, friendly personnel. One big plus for us was the location of the hotel right by the metro station "Avtozavodskaia": you just exit the hotel's gates and the metro entrance is on your right. Very convenient! Our only problem was that we booked a standard room […] with two beds/ When we arribed, we ended up with a standard room with one king size bed. This was disappointing but didn't cause us particular problems as a result. Otherwise, it is a very nice place for travelers who want to pay a reasonable price for their stay in one of the most expensive cities in the world but still want to have a good location (closesness to metro is priceless) with clean rooms.
