Being on the doorstep of Melnikov House changes everything about a Moscow visit — you wake up on Old Arbat, the city's most storied pedestrian street, and the cylindrical wonder of Soviet avant-garde is literally your first sight of the day. The eight verified stays within 100 metres mean you skip the metro entirely for the Kremlin, Pushkin Museum, and the entire Arbat stretch. Before committing to a room, check real-time prices for Melnikov House hotels — the spread between the cheapest and priciest option here is wider than you'd expect.
Eight hotels sit within 100 metres of Melnikov House, all of them on or just off Old Arbat. That's a density you won't find anywhere else in Moscow — the nearest alternative cluster is a 20-minute walk away in the Kremlin's shadow. The trade-off: these are apartments and hostels, not five-star properties, so you're choosing location over lobby.
Landmark City Hotel - Hostel
Perfect score across the board — 10.0 for location, cleanliness, and value from its single verified review. The reviewer couldn't name a single complaint, which is rare for any Moscow stay. At hostel prices on the doorstep of a UNESCO-adjacent landmark, this is the smart money pick.
GM Apartments Ogromnye na Arbate s verandoy Flat
The standout for space — guests praise the size of the rooms, the kitchen tools, and the veranda, with cleanliness scoring a perfect 10.0. Location scores 9.5, and value matches at 9.5. The catch: the hosts charged extra for luggage transfer and keeping bags, so factor that into your budget if you're arriving early or leaving late.
GM Apartments v Elitnom dome na Arbate Flat
Location is solid at 8.0 and the product itself is good — but the value score of 1.0 tells the real story. The deposit process drew criticism, and at that value rating, you're paying for the address, not the experience. Skip this one unless the building itself matters more than your wallet.
Gm Apartments v Osobnyake na Arbate Flat
No review data yet, but the name — "in the mansion on Arbat" — suggests a building with character that the newer apartment blocks lack. Under 100 metres from Melnikov House, it's a gamble without guest feedback. If you're the first to review it, you'll know exactly what you're getting before anyone else does.
Melnikov House sits at 10 Krivoarbatsky Lane, a five-minute stroll from the Arbat's main drag — the entrance is easy to miss, so look for the cylindrical white tower behind the trees. Weekday mornings are quietest; by noon, tour groups cluster around the fence. Book for a Tuesday or Wednesday if you want the facade to yourself, and remember that most of these apartments have self-check-in, so coordinate arrival times with the hosts in advance.
