About this hotel
Hotel Elle keeps its footprint small and personal, a boutique three-star property with a shared kitchenette and bar rather than the larger, more anonymous hotels found elsewhere in the district. That format suits a traveller who wants a bit of character at a genuinely budget rate, though it means shared rather than private cooking space for anyone hoping to self-cater fully. Free Wi-Fi is included, and the smoke-free policy keeps the air clean throughout. At 39 minutes from Pulkovo, the drive south runs on the longer side, a trade-off worth weighing against the boutique setting this property offers over a larger, more functional address nearby, a detail worth weighing before booking a longer stay here.

Our take
I would recommend Hotel Elle on a low budget if you like a small, boutique feel and a shared kitchenette more than the scale of a bigger hotel. The 39-minute drive to Pulkovo needs a real margin on departure morning. If you want a private kitchen or more amenities, an apartment-style or better-equipped property on this list is the better choice.
- Check the shared kitchenette's availability at busy times, since it's a single space rather than a private one per room.
- Book a taxi well ahead for the 39-minute run to Pulkovo, given how few extras this property offers to cushion a delay.
- Ask the front desk for local restaurant recommendations, since the property itself keeps dining minimal beyond the shared kitchenette.

It is kid-friendly and smoke-free, and Pulkovo is 39 minutes by taxi. With 8.6 from 156 reviews, I read it as a charming budget pick.
