Huge opportunities for tourism open up for the Russian traveler in his own country, if you approach the business of organizing a trip creatively and think over every little detail. Flights and hotels are too expensive, you say? This is also a fixable thing, because each airline periodically organizes sales and grandiose promotions, and youth hotels in Russia allow even a student or young family to spend the night on a budget in a city they like.
What is a hostel and what is it with?
From English the word "hostel" is translated quite trite and means "hostel". Young people in Europe and the United States have long been using this method of staying overnight, because hostels have a number of undeniable advantages:
- Price. A night in such a youth hotel in Russia or another country is several times cheaper than in a regular hotel.
- Location. Hostels open, as a rule, in the city center, compensating for the lack of special service in the room by the proximity of cultural and historical values. And the money for travel to attractions is much less.
- The ability to communicate with like-minded people. Youth hotels in Russia are a meeting place for tourists united by common ideas and interests. Here you can always find an interlocutor, share experiences and interesting observations, and get a lot of free useful tips and tricks.
Russian hostels often open in ordinary residential buildings, and therefore each guest can use the kitchen to prepare breakfast or dinner. As a rule, any hotel of this type has a washing machine, hairdryer, ironing board and iron and a coffee machine. Shared bathroom is not a problem, because the rhythm of life and the regime of guests rarely coincide, and therefore there are almost never queues for the shower here.
Even having bought a full room in a hostel, you can significantly reduce the cost of living in comparison with an ordinary hotel, and if a company takes part in the trip, then this way of spending the night becomes especially profitable.
Choosing a direction
The desire to visit the capital or St. Petersburg usually comes across unaffordable hotel prices for a young person. One night in a Moscow hotel can eat up the lion's share of the budget, and therefore a hostel is the best option for such trips.
Going to the Far East from the European part of the country or vice versa, a tourist invariably spends a large amount on air or train tickets, and a stopover for the night in one of the youth hotels in Russia will help to keep the rest of the costs to a minimum.
