IMPORTANT: Note that not all hotels are licenced to issue a hotel voucher and a booking confirmation of tourist acceptance also known as visa support documents needed to apply for a Russian tourist visa. In particular, this is the case of aforesaid mini-hotels NORD and ZLATOUST. If however you want to stay there, we can help you to get these visa support documents issued by another hotel at a price of about 6 € (following a current practice).
IMPORTANT: Note that according to the Russian Federal law ?109-? "About the migratory recording of foreign citizens and persons without citizenship in the Russian Federation", from July, 18th, 2006, foreign citizens and persons without citizenship are obliged to rise on the migratory recording. The necessary documents for your statement on the migratory recording in the Russian Federation are usually provided by a hotel services at a price of about 25 €.
