Trip to Souther Russia including Sochi
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 03/25/05
We stayed at the "Pearl" Hotel which was nice. Make sure and get a room with air conditioning because not all of them have air conditioning. The hotel has an internet cafe and a private beach. It is easy and cheap to get a driver to take you to other near-by locations such as the mountians. Don't miss the botanical gardens. See http://www.russophile.com/russian_vacation/index.html for some pictures from where we went.
