Latest Pskov hotel reviews
Pablos_new Says: Very interesting "piece of history" in rather modern town. Definately it is a must see activity.Kremlin walls are rather high from outside and relatively small from inside. That is because in times of Peter the Great Kremlin was earthed, just to make this ancient (before...
Suuz Says: There are several banya's in Pskov, but the best one must be the one which is beside the Pskov river. It is very small, so you might have to go there to reserve. I don't know the exact adress, but the best way to get there is to start at Ploshad Lenina, then walk to the...
Suuz Says: This is a restaurant, bar and club. It has very long opening hours, so you just might want to hop in for a cold beer, breakfast or a dinner or a hot coffee.The kitchen does not look too clean, but that is ther same in all of Russia. Try the nice healthy salads with other...
Kakhanovsky bulvar: our dear pizza place
Suuz Says: By me and my friends lovingly reffered to as "the pizza place", is cheap! It's a kind of buffet, you'll have a problem if you don't speak russian. So this restaurant is good for you if you can read a little bit of russian.They have nice salads, soups, pizza's and some other...
Suuz Says: This the most expensive restaurant in town. It also has a good reputation. There's a club a bar and a restaurant.But if you ask me... The service is rather bad and inside it's dark. The food is okay, but I prefer other restaurants in town. But stil it has a very nice...
Evropeskaya: The best in town!
Suuz Says: This restaurant is really nice. The food is very good and there is often live music, the band even sometimes plays european music! Sometimes there are receptions such as a wedding party, but other guests are allowed inside, just enjoy how russians celebrate life! Leave you...
TIR CLUB: live music, booze and food
Suuz Says: TIR club is a very nice club. They're open thursday, friday and saturday, sometimes on other days. Their opening hours are from 18 hrs to 1. When there's a band playing you might have to pay entrance, which may vary between 50 and 300 rubles. You can check the programme on...
Parakhod: real Russian clubbing...
Suuz Says: Parakhod... Well what can I say. It's nice if you know a lot about Russian temporary music. Sometimes there's live music. It's a rather popular place.Or if you're drunk. Or if you want to get laid... ;) females: as sexy as possible, try to compete with the beautiful Russian...

salisbury3933 Says: There are buses to Pskov from both St Pete and Novgorod, and there are various buses from Pskov to other destinations in the region.Buses tend to be more frequent than trains when it comes to getting to Pskov.
old busses living their 5th lives...
Suuz Says: Well, as the rest of Russia all the busses are either from Swedish, french, german etc. origin. So they are rather old, but still working. On the outside you may find the direction where the bus is heading... if you're lucky. Well, just hop in and see where you will end. You...
Tsentr Orbita: Big supermarket
Suuz Says: It is special because it is one of the biggest supermarkets in the Pskov area. You can buy here practically everything you might need. The best frozen pizza's are sold here. it is of course more expensive than the rishky rynok.
Rizhky rynok (Riga market): Food and non food market
Suuz Says: This is a typical Russian market. When I went there and I bought to much... I would take a taxi home! You can buy on the ground floor practically everything: cheese, meat, fish, vegetables, sweets, cookies, pasta and other things. Even in winter you can find fresh...
Make your secret wishes come true
remigia Says: When you are visiting Izborsk fortress ( just some 20km from Pskov) follow the arrows behind the walls that tell "Slavenske Kliutchi". One of the guides said that there are 12 springs coming from the stone and another that there are 7 springs. Both can be true. Because it...
thuule Says: Pskov is also one of the oldest towns in noth-west Russia situating in the crossig of 2 rives where you can see old fortification - but not entirely old as in the Soviet time it was recunstructed having no idea how the fortification might look like in the past :-). Still...
Suuz Says: My favourite way of killing time in Pskov was walking along the Velikaya river in summer and walking on the Velikaya river in winter. Don't forget to walk in the Ledny sad and have a nice picnic in Finsky Park.
liusia Says: Don't miss the giant head sitting on the wall near the southwest side of the Kremlin! I say "don't miss it," because I'm hoping that you'll go see it, recognize it and be able to tell me what it is, because I am stumped!
Suuz Says: There's a very nice but expensive (for Russian standards) in the SUPER-complex. It costs 40 euro's a month, but i think the facilities are worth it. There are aerobics classes and a gym. There's a sauna and it is very clean and that's worth the money. err shoes and sport...
yumyum Says: I used the one with ADSL connection in the telephone/telegraph office on Oktyabrskaya prospekt 17.When you go in you have to state how long you want to use it for (they don't speak English), then you get a piece of paper with which you go into the main hall to counter 3, 4...
Pablos_new Says: Kremlin is a small piece of history that remains in Pskov after WWII. In 1943 downtown of Pskov was bombed to smoulder by SOVIET (!?) army. It was Stalin's punishment for surrender in 1941. He was very cruel person. Pskov was the ONLY Russian city that surrendered without a...
