DK Eyewitness "Built in the Stalinist Gothic architectural style of the 1950s, the Peking offers rooms that have been refurbished to fourstar standards as well as some that still belong to the Soviet era."
Frommer's "The new rooms cost about 30% more than their older counterparts but boast wider, firmer beds and calmer, sleeker decor; some even have bidets." Full review
Fodor's "This 1955, Soviet-era tower is a Moscow landmark, offering old-fashioned accommodations that, though upgraded, still evoke Stalinist Russia, as may the service and amenities." Full review

Request one on a higher floor if any are available, so you can enjoy the views of central Moscow.

Frommer's "This hotel lacks grandeur but offers everything else a hotel should: efficient service, clean rooms, and (relatively) reasonable prices." Full review

Ask for an upgraded room if they're available; the price isn't that much higher than that of an older room, but the beds are larger and firmer, the bathrooms roomier, and the windows better at keeping out street noise.
DK Eyewitness "Built in 1972 for guests of the Russian Academy of Sciences, this concrete monolith is reasonably cheap and central. Avoid the rooms that haven’t been renovated since 1972."
