Renaissance Moscow Olympic Hotel offers free Russian language lessons to its guests
“Aside from providing a free transfer service to Moscow’s main attractions, the hotel offers a unique opportunity to learn Russian and become closer to the Russian culture.
Every Tuesday at 6:30pm in the 7 Sisters Café, a professional Russian language tutor awaits the hotel guests. The instructor not only teaches the most important and popular Russian phrases, but also shares stories about great Russian traditions and customs. The teacher will find a special approach to every single student, regardless of his level of knowledge of the language.
The lesson is entirely free and lasts one hour.”

This is an excellent idea. If I was on a personal trip it would not make too much of a difference but on a business trip (i.e. reimbursed by the company) I’ll try to stay at this hotel.

That’s incredible. Most people are entirely interested in learning the local language but don’t have a simple, easy way to do so. I’m hopeful that more places like the 7 Sisters Cafe adopt this mentality.
