The hostel based on the Ostankino hotel was opened in Moscow. The hostel is focused on different types of clients, including foreign tourists.
The Ostankino hotel was opened in 1957. The total area of its buildings is 39,000 square meters. Today the three blocks of the hotel with the hotel room capacity of 927 rooms can accommodate up to 3,500 visitors every day. The further plans for 2013 include the opening of another 82 rooms with 264 beds, and in 2014 the investors are going to create about 330 rooms that can accommodate up to 1,000 people in the Ostankino hotel. Thus, over the next two years the capacity of the Ostankino-Hostel should exceed 500 beds, which makes it the first major hotel facility of this kind in Moscow.
