r/Moscow

Guys, I'm in Moscow and having serious issues with registration. Previously, I stayed in St. Petersburg and moved to a hotel, then another hostel, and none of them provided registration. Now I'm in Moscow and no hostel/hotel is willing to register me due to the missed 7-day deadline.

Questions:

Can I still get registered at a hotel/hostel in Moscow? If yes, how?

What should I say when checking in?

Will I face problems at the airport when leaving Russia?

Any way to fix this quickly?

Are there any specific steps I need to take regarding previous stays in St. Petersburg?

Current situation:

Need immediate help and clear steps on what to do right now. Thanks for any advice!

I am a tourist. My train is today night from Saint Petersburg to moscow.

Overhere I was able to do pre-booking but in Moscow, most shared hostels asking for full payment but ostrovok app payment stuck while using visa, Master cards.

Please 🥺 help which site to book, and where can I get cheap hostel to stay and roam through metro.

I understand city center very high hostel price.

We are 2 members, 2k rubles per day.

I am planning to visit Russia. I need you guys help me to decide me itinerary. I will be landing in Moscow and then staying there for 2 weeks.

I am into clubbing and also experience historical sites. If anyone can host me or being my teavel buddy that would be great !

Hello. I'll be visiting Moscow soon, was wondering hoping to get in a run if I had time - Moscow looks lovely and I would love exploring on foot rather than zipping past in a vehicle.

I was wondering what the running scene is like there, and the cultural things I should watch out for (for instance, do you greet/smile/wave at other runners, or is that seen as a no-no), runner safety (eg how do drivers/cyclists treat runners, is it safe to run early mornings eg 6am, does it get suddenly dark after a certain time etc.). All advice is appreciated.

I will be near Gorky Park, so will prob run there as a start.

If there are English-speaking communities, would appreciate a link to those too.

Thank you all very much!

Hi everyone! I’m an incoming RUDN student starting the preparatory faculty year around October on a government quota scholarship.
Trying to get ahead on the dormitory situation before I arrive and would love advice from current or former RUDN students (especially international ones)

How does dorm assignment actually work in practice - is it first-come-first-served, based on application date, or something else?
Any tips for landing a spot in good and modern style dorms. How is the overall vibe there

When and how can I actually apply/request a dorm - through the RUDN portal, on arrival, or is there a form beforehand?

Any general advice for a first-time international student navigating this process?

Thanks so much in advance,trying to set myself up for a smooth move!

Helloo, Indian guy here, currently in Oman. Got a Russian govt scholarship for Economics at RSSU and I'm landing late Sept / early Oct

Doing the Russian prep year first before the actual degree starts.

Been learning Russian on my own for a bit but ngl I'm still pretty bad at it 😭 so the first few months are gonna be interesting.

Never been to Russia before either, so basically going in blind.

Mostly just curious what daily life is actually like there,

especially north/northeast side since that's where the RSSU campuses are.

Like what's the vibe, is it easy enough to get around when your Russian is trash, that kinda thing lol

Also wanna know what stuff I should sort out early on , SIM card, bank account, metro card, whatever's annoying if you leave it too late. And winter gear, I was planning to just buy the proper coat and boots there instead of hauling stuff from here, but lmk if that's a dumb idea.

Basically anything you wish someone had told you before you moved, or something you would wanna share as a local

Any tips appreciated 🙏
