Aeropolis Hotel

The Aeropolis Hotel is a Soviet-era standard hotel located on Leningradsky Prospekt, one of Moscows main highways and part of the road from the Kremlin to Moscow's largest international airport, Sheremetyevo. Far from luxurious, the Aeropolis is nonetheless worth considering if you are doing business in the area.

Why stay here?

• Low-cost accommodation
• 30 minutes from Red Square
• Basic business and leisure facilities

The Aeropolis Hotel has 197 guest rooms in various categories. Built for the 1980 Olympic Games, the Aeropolis was fully reconstructed in 1997, and many rooms have since undergone further renovation to offer international-standard three-star accommodation in small but bright and clean interiors, with simple modern furnishings. Unrenovated rooms are very, very basic. However, all rooms offer complimentary WiFi Internet access. Services at the Aeropolis are not extensive, but the hotel's staff cover the basics efficiently. The Aeropolis also offers conferencing facilities, and there are excellent sport and leisure facilities, including large swimming pool and fitness centre, available a short walk from the hotel.

The area around the hotel is best known as the home of FC Dinamo, one of Russia's oldest and most famous football teams. The neighborhood is mostly residential, and features some fine examples of Stalinist neo-classical architecture. There are two metro stations within ten minutes' walk from the hotel, and the journey-time to Red Square is around 20 minutes. Although the Aeropolis is located on one of Moscows busiest streets, hotel rooms are quiet, thanks to soundproof windows, and there are several parks near the hotel.
