Best hotels in Yoshkar-Ola for winter

If you're coming to see Patriarch's Square, the Kremlin and the embankments, book in the centre itself — around Kremlyovskaya Street or Pervomaysky Lane, where everything is within walking distance. If you've arrived by car, the western districts and Medvedevo are more convenient: ten minutes to the centre and free parking outside the building. And if you only need a bed in transit, look at the options by the station on Depovskaya Street.

No, there are no five-star hotels in the city. The top tier is a handful of four-star properties, while the bulk of what's on offer is three-star hotels and apartments. If you want something grander, the closest thing is the country park hotel half an hour's drive from Yoshkar-Ola.

The best window is May through September: the fountains on Patriarch's Square are running, the Bruges and Amsterdam embankments come alive and you can walk all day. Midsummer brings plenty of visitors, so book your stay two or three weeks ahead. In winter the architecture is no less photogenic, the embankments are nearly empty and accommodation costs noticeably less.

The range is wide: a hostel bunk is cheapest, followed by short-term apartments and three-star hotels with breakfast, with four-star hotels and country houses at the top. In summer, during the fountain season and the long weekends, rates run noticeably higher than in winter, and the cheap options go first for the May and August holidays. Check the current prices on the cards — they change along with availability.
