We Were Thankful We Saw Tourist Hotel Omsk

After arriving late at night in Omsk, my husband and I were snubbed by a couple of guesthouses we have inquired. As we were making our way to another hotel, we saw this giant erection, which our guide book told us was the Tourist Hotel Omsk. We passed the smaller hotel nearby and walked down the street for we both thought that Tourist Hotel could have more vacant guestrooms.

We got a room at Tourist Hotel Omsk, and we were guided by a decorous and amicable attendant. Though at first we had a hard time communing with the hotel people - for none of them spoke good English- their helpful and friendly motions made it all easy. Moreover, we could have never felt shelteredmore secure than being inside the guesthouse during the night, and because there were also guards rounding the place and every floors. Though there was nothing really outstanding about the place aside from the 1970 Soviet design of the dining room, all in all it was a lovely hotel. All the more edible was great with the combination of scrumptious cold Russian salad and scrambled egg. Also, there were boutiques within the building compound; and some delightful sites of Omsk were just a walk away.
