I will be teaching for a week, the first week in September. I would like to stay at a hotel near the city centre. Any advice on a moderately priced nice hotel?<BR><BR>Also, how safe is it there and any suggestions for a first time travelor that knows some Czech, but no Russian.<BR><BR>Thanks.

Joe, you should re-post this query, and in the header put some clue as to which city you're talking about.

Joe,<BR><BR>Exactly where will you be staying ( Prague? Moscow ? elsewhere?) as the title does not give any clues. Once you do that you will get more replies.<BR><BR>Regards<BR><BR>Gregory

This post is "filed" under Russia - - but that still leaves no clue what city.<BR><BR>No doubt joe will feel a little silly when he comes back and sees this omission.<BR><BR>The good samaritan thing to do would be to e-mail him with the URL for this thread - - <BR><BR>http://www.fodors.com/forums/pgMessages.jsp?fid=2&tid=1367989<BR><BR>anyone want to do that?<BR><BR>Best wishes,<BR><BR>Rex<BR>

In the time you spent to post that suggestion, Rex, why didn't you just do it, instead of asking if someone else wanted to?

I mailed this to the original poster.<BR>

Thanks for the e-mail kelsey, to let me know that you are real.<BR><BR>It appears that he has not seen it yet.<BR><BR>So topping again.<BR>

For those of you who aren't psychic, I probably should have included the city I will be staying in. Sorry for the omission. I will be in Moscow for a week. If you can read my mind and answer any other questions I may have feel free.
