Spektr  

Tucked into a dormitory district of Irkutsk, Spektr sits about 4 km (roughly 10 minutes) from the city center. Walkable sights include Bogoyavlensky Cathedral, Volkonsky House Museum and the East Siberian Soil Science Museum, plus the big Shanghai Gorod market and nearby public-transport stops. The hotel also offers easy road access toward the Small Sea and Olkhon Island.

A budget, economy-class property opened in May 2018 with just 10 rooms across several categories. Rooms come with bed linen and towels; the property runs 24/7 and handles registration for foreign citizens.

Simple, practical comforts: free Wi‑Fi throughout, a shared kitchen area with refrigerator and microwave, an ironing room and dining tables. There's protected parking on site, laundry service and a coffee machine to kick-start your morning.

Reliable Wi‑Fi keeps you connected and on-the-go travelers will appreciate the on-site parking and round-the-clock reception.

Breakfast can be ordered at the hotel and morning coffee is available from the coffee machine. For more variety, explore nearby cafés and the Shanghai Gorod market for local eats.
