Boutique hotels in Murmansk

Aurora on Lenina Avenue is a good fit if you want cafés, shops and sights close by: the drama theatre, a museum and Arctic Border Guards Square are nearby. The hotel has just 11 rooms, each with a private bathroom with a shower. The 24-hour reception is handy for late arrivals.

These small properties in Murmansk offer cooking facilities, so you don’t have to find a café for every meal. Polyarnik has a kitchenette and washing machine in each apartment, while the other properties have shared kitchens. Bathroom arrangements also vary: only some rooms at Tri Barsuka have a private bathroom, while at Sputnik, three rooms share a bathroom and toilet.

These small hotels in Murmansk are near the Severnoye Nagornoye shopping centre, within walking distance of shops and places to eat. From Smart Business Hotel and Navigator, Five Corners Square is 25–30 minutes away by bus; Navigator has a single room for solo travellers. Ledokol offers rooms for two or three guests and a kitchen for those who prefer to cook for themselves.

Dolina Uyuta suits travellers looking for a quiet place within Murmansk, offering apartments in a park setting with woodland views. Parking is available if you’re driving, and pets are welcome if you’re bringing yours along.

Both hotels are in Kola, so factor in the journey if you plan to visit Murmansk. Koltak has just six rooms and a shared kitchen for preparing your own meals. At Sparta, you can order breakfast, and there is a bus stop for Murmansk nearby; rooms are on the third and fourth floors, with no lift.
