Hostel Na Sadovoy Reviews

Description

The Hostel "Na Sadovoy" is a new project. Located in one of the oldest neighbourhoods of central St. Petersburg, the hostel is within walking distance of many great architectural and cultural landmarks – the Theatre Square with its famed Mariinsky Theatre and the Conservatory; the area where characters from Dostoyevsky's novels lived; the historical St. Nicholas church and market; the bustling Hay Market square (Sennaya Ploshad).

The area, historically known as Kolomna, is loved by the locals for its maze of canals, local pubs and shot bars with that distinctive old-city character, marketplaces with great bargains and abundance of regional and exotic produce.

The central location and affordable prices make the hostel "Na Sadovoy" a great choice for budget travellers of all ages. We offer accommodation from dormitories to private rooms with both shared bath and en-suite.

Our friendly English-speaking staff will be happy to assist you with travel practicalities – a visa support or an airport transfer can be easily arranged, as well as walking tours of St. Petersburg and accommodation in one of the Moscow or Novgorod hostels.

We do our best to make your stay in St. Petersburg enjoyable and memorable!

Location and Contact

Location

• The Hostel "Na Sadovoy" is situated within 15-20 minutes walk from Nevsky Prospekt, and 5 minutes from the Sadovaya/Sennaya Ploshchad (Садовая/Сенная Площадь) metro stations – see instructions below. To find us, walk down the Sadovaya Street (Садовая улица) to building 53, then enter the gate and turn right. We are located on the 4-th floor.
• Getting to Sadovaya/Sennaya Ploshchad
• From the train stations There are three long-distance train stations in St. Petersburg. Two of them are situated on the Red Line (Line 1) of the metro network. If you arrive to the Moscow Station (Moskovsky Vokzal) or Vitebsk Station (Vitebsky Vokzal), catch the metro to Vladimirskaya (ВЛАДИМИРСКАЯ, same Red Line), then change to Dostoyevskaya (ДОСТОЕВСКАЯ, Yellow Line, or Line 4) and take one stop to Sadovaya.
• Trains from Finland arrive to the Ladoga Station, or Ladozhsky Vokzal. From there, hop on the metro (the metro station has the same name, Ladozhskaya (ЛАДОЖСКАЯ), and is on the Yellow Line, or Line 4). A five-stop direct journey will get you to Sadovaya.
• From the Airports :
• From Pulkovo 1, the Domestic terminal, bus 39 (and all minibuses) run to the metro station Moskovskaya (МОСКОВСКАЯ), third southernmost on the Blue Line, or Line 2. Take six stops straight up the line to Sennaya Ploshchad (Сенная Площадь). Exit metro and walk south-west along the Sadovaya street to the Hostel.
• From Pulkovo 2, the International terminal, take bus 13 (or any of the minibuses) to metro station Moskovskaya, third southernmost on the Blue Line, or Line 2. Take six stops straight up the line to Sennaya Ploshchad (Сенная Площадь). Exit metro and walk south-west along the Sadovaya street to the Hostel.
• If you're lucky to get the infrequent minibus 213, stay on until the end of the route, right at Sennaya Ploshchad.
• We can arrange an airport pick-up for 40 USD.
• From the Seaport, or Morskoy Vokzal, we can arrange a transfer to the hostel (20 USD). If you rather go by public transport, take trolleybus 10 or bus 7 towards the city centre (30-40 minute ride). Exit at the stop ‘Sadovaya street' (САДОВАЯ УЛИЦА) – ask the conductor for help! You will get off just before the intersection of Sadovaya and Nevsky Prospekt. Turn into Sadovaya and carry on for about 20 minutes.
• Here's how to use public transport
• Arriving to Russia, or to St. Petersburg in this case, might seem a stressful experience for a first-timer, but do not despair! The city's airports and train stations are well-connected by public transport, and although there are few signs in English, the metro and bus system is relatively easy to navigate.
• By bus Boarding a public bus (or tram, or trolleybus), you will be approached by a conductor selling 7-ruble tickets. The ticket is valid for an unlimited-length single journey. Bus stops are usually marked by an ‘A' sign (for ‘avtobus'). Sometimes a stop would have a sign with a bus pictogram and a list of route numbers.
• By metro Metro (subway/underground) is the quickest way of commuting around the greater city. Stations are identified from outside by a big stylised ‘M' sign. An 8-ruble token (‘zheton') is needed for a single ride. Tokens are sold from the booths in the station foyer. A multiple-ride card with a variety of options can be bought too.
• By mini-bus Minibus, or marshrutka, is a great, if a bit confusing, way of getting almost anywhere in St. Petersburg. The small things run pretty much like buses, with an added convenience of being able to stop on demand anywhere along the way – just flag one down to hop on, or tell the driver ‘Stop!' to get off. Marshrutkas run along fixed routes, and there are millions of them! Pay to the driver as you get in – the flat fare is indicated above the driver's seat, usually 12-15 rubles.
• Most public transport operates from 5:30 am to 12:30 am.
• By Taxi There are taxis, both officially-looking ones with a sign, and the ones whose driver just claims he is a taxi, touting for business at the airports, train stations and other tourist areas. You can bargain even with the official ones! Try to sound convincing – practice pronouncing your destination in your best Russian. The older the vehicle the cheaper – a ride in a Soviet Lada around the city centre can be as little as 100 rubles, yet a metered yellow cab would charge 3-4 times more for the same ride.
