What People are saying
Charming
James Ton 22/05/2016 09:11WiFi in the lobby and the restaurant works fine. Having some issues with it in the room. Nice and clean, the reception speaks some English. Took a 2 hr walk around and it seems safe enough. Taxi ride from the airport was 550 rubles and the hotel arranged and billed my room.
Pleasant stay
1980beefyon 28/05/2015 02:12Stayed for a day heading to the north of the island to work, rooms are clean and tidy, facilities are somewhat basic. One minor flaw was that I couldn't find a way of turning down the heating!? Other than that the hotel was fine. Would recommend for short stay.
Excellent service in a hotel with real character.
LocheeLoonon 06/04/2015 06:45I stayed here for just a couple of nights in late March.
The smile I received from the lady at the front desk was genuine, warm and very welcoming...exactly what was needed after almost three days travelling.
I was shown into a nice spacious room, however due to my early arrival they staff were still preparing it. I was inundated with genuine heartfelt apologies and my room was ready in only a few minutes.
The bed was very comfortable, the room very nicely presented, and the food in the downstairs restaurant was very good value and tasted delicious.
The only downside is the lack of English language television channels, however given the location I didn't really expect any, but something some may wish to be aware of...just be sure to bring a nice book.
The wifi connection was decent, and the staff are very happy to ensure a most pleasant stay.
I hope to return to Yuzhno again, and if I am lucky enough to do so, then this is the place where I'd stay.

Belka Hotel
OleCrocon 02/06/2014 14:36Stayed in Belka for 2 weeks Pretty quiet hotel. Not a bad place. A little dark inside. Sound proofing leaves much to be desired.
The restorant is quite expensive and not a good varity of dishes. Business lunch sucks.
No gym. The sauna in thee basement costs about $50 an hour.
Next time I will try Gagarin or Tourist hotel.
