I don't even know where to begin...We had a chance to enjoy Moscow for 15 days during Christmas / New Year holiday season so I really got a chance to see everything about this hotel. Assambleya Nikitskaya is simple yet amazing. Yes, location is great without a doubt because you walk to Red Square 10 min max, countless restaurants and shopping malls nearby, ease of access from anywhere whether you use taxi or underground metro. BUT what makes this place truly amazing is people that work there. That includes everyone: front desk, sales / reservations team, cleaning crew, food / bar - everyone speaks English, everyone is doing their absolute best to help you to feel welcomed. As an example - our son had a gum infection as a result of a tooth extraction done right before vacation & was in need of a dentist urgently. One of front desk receptionists Tatev made calls to many clinics to find one not only open to see us same day, but close and with most reasonable price list. Same attention to guests we saw from Arthur, Diana, Sergey and rest of team. As far as hotel itself - we had a very comfortable 1 bedroom suite they call Apartment. Spacious, clean, comfortable king size bed, enough space for family of 5 actually. We did spend a lot of time outdoors but even when we were inside, none of us felt cramped. If you are looking for friendly and comfortable hotel in the heart of Moscow - this place is for you!!!
