"Right across from Moskovsky Train Station and on Nevsky's bustling Insurrection Square (Ploshchad Vosstaniya), the Oktyabrskaya is another example of Soviet expansiveness."

Lonely Planet
"This former bastion of Soviet-style hotel management is showing promising signs of revitalisation.... What's never been at fault is its location, smack-bang opposite the Moscow Station."

Although you may be tempted to ask for a room overlooking pl Vosstaniya, note that the noise does seep in through the windows.
