Sosnovka Sanatorium - best hotel in Akademicheskyi Gorod, Novosibirsk. 
To clarify: yes, the hotel is quite good and comfortable. Great food at the restaurant (though I was the only patron).

The good features don't make it any less creepy at night, though!

All photos taken with a 50mm lens except the last 3 or so, at 35mm. No HDR, no automatic ISO, contrast, or other photo enhancement features. You see this as close as the eye sees it.
