Top hotels in Russell

Galt House Hotel Trademark Collection by Wyndham
"It was good. Staff seemed a little overwhelmed when we arrived for an almost 1 a.m. check-in. It was very busy the night before Louder Than Life. The breakfast restaurant wasn't busy and was still slow. The food was great, but we didn't go back since we had a schedule to keep."
