Crystal Bay Historic Hotel

1) We loved THE STAFF working at this hotel. We were there for 4 nights, 5 days and the ladies (Cathy Burns, Jennifer Freeman and Kathy Reid to name a few) working there were amazing. They treated us like family helping us with Uber, giving us free bags of chips, giving us information about the shopping in the area and making sure that we were comfortable. 2) This is a historical place, the type that we love when compared to the ''square boxes''. 3) The breakfast is included and it offers A LOT of variety and the food is excellent; also we ordered room service and the food was delicious. 4) The room was spacious enough with a mini-fridge and a table with two chairs. 5) The pool was looking clean and the lounge chairs around it were inviting. 5) We were allowed to have breakfast ON THE DAY OF ARRIVAL which was very nice since we were early. Also tea and coffee are offered all day long, free of charge. 6) Our room was ready by 11:00 AM which was wonderful on the first day since we had to be out of our cruise ship very early. 7) The television in our room was new and had many channels. 8) The place felt very secure and was very clean. 9) There were reminders of early tourism days in Saint-Petersburg everywhere in the sitting room and patrons spoke to one another contributing to a friendly atmosphere, enhanced by the dogs allowed. 10) The cost was very reasonable for all the amenities and the great service.

Liked everything immensely ! especially immaculately clean attentive professional staff historical architecture outstanding most varied n delicious breakfast loved iced mineral water always available in lobby! Would stay in veranda rooms next time ! Very convenient parking !It was truly outstanding ! A hidden gem ! Lovely memories

Breakfast was very good and certainly added to the value of staying there. The location was close enough to the beach for quick access (10 min drive) but also far enough away to be quiet at night. I really appreciated the historic feel to the hotel with the modern updates - it was a good blend of the two. They also used contactless check-in and check-out which was quick and easy!

Such a beautiful and very quaint original hotel, steeped in history. The staff are simply exceptional, did not get his name but the guy at breakfast was brilliant nothing was too much trouble and mega friendly. Rooms are simple but very clean, nice bathroom and bed was good, overall we were very happy with our stay and would 100% stay again.

Breakfast was fabulous every morning! We had our choice of scrambled eggs, cheese omelet, home made waffles, oatmeal, pastries and bagels. There is coffee, water and tea in the lobby 24/7. Great location and history! Rooms are comfortable and very clean! Well worth the money! Only downside was the pool is not heated and it was a bit cold. I highly recommend CrystalBay Hotel and we will stay there again in the future! Enjoy!
