Accommodation
Moscow boasts a developed hospitality industry (индустрия гостеприимства). It has in-bound (въездной) travel companies including those focusing on foreign tourists, around 3,000 restaurants and 900 hotels of various price categories which means that it will not be difficult for you to find something that will suit your taste.
Speaking about accommodation, Moscow has a great variety of hotels: from luxurious brand names to the economy-class hotels.
Famous international companies mainly manage expensive four and five star hotels. These hotels will provide you with the high level of service and modern comfort conditions: satellite TV, the Internet, mini-bars, laundry service and 24 hour cleaning service. As a rule such hotels have haute cuisine restaurants (рестораны высокой кухни). Some hotels have fitness-clubs and swimming pools. Moscow hotels are very responsible when it comes to the security of their guests. You can rent a safe box in any expensive hotel.
Plenty of Moscow hotels occupy historical buildings, which have been reconstructed and renovated. Central Deluxe level hotels are usually located in a walking distance to the main sightseeing places, business and shopping centers.

Three and two star hotels are popular in Moscow as well. Plenty of them have been renovated and now their interiors and exteriors comply with the worldwide standards.
Unfortunately not all hotels are equipped with the entrance slip roads for
wheelchairs and you should make inquiries if a hotel has this or that facility
beforehand. Almost all hotels have booking services (you can either book a hotel through the Internet or by phone) and you don't have to contact agencies. However please be aware that some hotels may ask you to pay for this service.
