Hotel Mont Blanc

I really enjoyed my stay at this hotel. The hotel is located right in the center of Chita, just off Lenin Square. The room was good and the breakfasts were good. The staff were also very helpful.

This is the first time in my month stay in Russia that I have encountered corruption in the tourist industry outside of the taxi’s. Would not recommend anyone from a developed country stay at the Mont Blanc!!! As for the reviews that say they don’t speak english it is no worse then any other city in Russia outside of Moscow, St. Petersburg and Vladimir! The concerning issue is the city itself speaks english pretty good. I asked twice to have the heat shut off in the room as it was running 30C while only being 10 outside. It never did get adjusted probably because I did not pay the required corruption fee! Be aware this hotel has the worst check out time I have seen it is 10 am. If you need to extend to a normal time of noon because your flight delay the corruption fee will be an additional 800 rubles! You only get one towel for each guest another towel the fee is 1000 rubles. Waiting to see what the charge is restaurant for electricity and water usage! Also be aware the hotel is in bad repair. There are two outlets in the room one by the bathroom and one for the tv. Both were so broken that the chargers would not work as it fell out of socket! The counter staff was helpful with the use of a translator for getting locations but worthless for getting any issues repaired. The ATM machine in the lobby is also broken. The restaurant food was the worst I have during this visit

Probably the only option in Chita.

The place is kept very clean, personnel is very nice, food is also tasty and affordable.

Okay price and comfortable
