Hotel Manastyrski

Housed in the converted remains of a Benedictine Monastery in the heart of Minsk's bustling Old Town, this 48-room gem cannot be beaten for location or atmosphere. Rooms are smart and comfortably furnished with dark-wood fittings, while the impressive corridors are decorated with frescoes (found during the renovation) and wrought-iron chandeliers. Booking directly on the website nets a 10% discount.
