    The "Tourist" Hotel was excellent. It had everything we needed, and the city center was even within walking distance, about 15-30 minutes depending on your pace. The excursions to the towns around Kaliningrad, especially Zelenogradsk and Yantarny, were absolutely wonderful, really interesting, atmospheric, and enjoyable. I’d especially like to mention our guide, Lyudmila. She was friendly, funny, positive, and had a great sense of humor. Her tours were informative and engaging without overwhelming us with too much information. She explained everything in a simple and memorable way - more like: See this building? Here’s why it looks this way and what makes it special. That style made the excursions especially enjoyable. To be honest, the castle tours in Kaliningrad itself were a bit less interesting, since many of the castles are now partly in ruins.
