Needless to say the room I stayed in wasn't quite as luxurious as the one he had but by Russian standards it was pretty good. Don't know the price as it was included in the cost of my tour but doubt it was that expensive - just make sure you get one of the basic rooms to avoid being fleeced!
Spend your spare roubles in the Casino (if you can!) & the food in the hotel is pretty good too.
