Karl Marx St. 171 — The Exact Address

Central street of Tula, everything at hand, easy to find

The «Myagko i Tochka» hostel stands at 171 Karl Marx Street — and this is not an abstract "centre of Tula", but a real, living street with its own character, its own shops and its own bus stop. This page is a micro-guide to the hostel's home street: what sits two or three minutes from the door, where to buy groceries after the road, where the pharmacy is, where to get off the bus and how not to get lost in the courtyard. If you are coming for the first time, read it once — and you will arrive as if you had been here before.

Karl Marx Street is convenient precisely because all the everyday infrastructure is lined up along it: a grocery store, a pharmacy, an ATM, a post office, cafes and a public-transport stop are all within walking distance of building 171. You do not need to travel to another district for bread or medicine. You check in, pop into «Magnit» across the road, come back to the courtyard — and you are fully settled. Meals are not included in the price, but with a street like this that is a plus, not a minus: cook in the shared kitchen from your own groceries and save on cafes.

History and character of Karl Marx Street

Karl Marx Street is one of the notable streets of Tula's Proletarsky district — a large residential and working district on the left bank of the Upa. Like most streets of that name across the country, Tula's Karl Marx Street was named in the Soviet years, and it has since become a lived-in, "our own" street for several generations of Tula residents: low-rise buildings, courtyards, shops next door, and the familiar rhythm of a residential neighbourhood without the fuss of a tourist centre.

The street's character is calm and practical. There are no crowds of pedestrians or noisy bars here — this is a district where people live, not just come to look. Yet Karl Marx Street is not cut off from the city: public transport runs along it, and from our stop it is easy to reach the historic centre by the Kremlin, the railway station, or any other district of Tula. That combination suits a guest well: you spend the night in a quiet residential block while the whole city is a couple of stops away.

Transport is the street's strong point. Both buses and trams stop near building 171; the Tula tram is a local landmark in its own right and, at the same time, a working, inexpensive way to get around. For those with a car, another thing matters: Karl Marx Street is wide, with parking spaces along the roadway, and the hostel itself has free parking in the courtyard. If you arrive by car, you will not have to circle looking for a spot.

Good to know — 5 places on Karl Marx Street for a guest

  1. «Magnit» across the road — your first stop after check-in. Grab water, breakfast groceries and everything for cooking in the shared kitchen: the trip works out noticeably cheaper than eating in cafes.
  2. «Rigla» pharmacy — if you caught a chill on the road or forgot your toothbrush. Essential medicine, hygiene and cold remedies are 3–4 minutes away — no need to hunt for a night pharmacy in an unfamiliar city.
  3. «Karl Marx» stop — your gateway to city transport. From here a tram or bus will take you to the centre, the Kremlin and the station. Remember the name — it makes navigation easy.
  4. ATM nearby — withdraw cash to pay for your stay or for small purchases at the market and kiosks, where cards are not always accepted.
  5. Public garden close by — an evening walk after a busy day in the city. A quiet green spot to unwind before bed without going far from the hostel.

«Magnit» and «Rigla» on Karl Marx Street — in detail

These two shops literally shape the everyday life of our street, so we describe them in detail — for a hostel guest, these are the most useful addresses.

«Magnit» grocery store — a couple of minutes from the courtyard of building 171. This is a full-format chain store, not a kiosk: it has everything for a self-catered stay. Groceries for breakfast and dinner, bread and fresh bakery, water and drinks, dairy, ready meals and semi-prepared food, tea and coffee, plus household chemicals, hygiene products and small items like batteries or a charging cable. It is usually open from early morning until late evening (roughly 8:00–23:00) — you will make it even after arriving on a night train. A reminder: meals are not included in the price, so «Magnit» across the road plus our shared kitchen with a stove, microwave and fridge is your way to eat well and much cheaper than in cafes.

«Rigla» pharmacy — also on Karl Marx Street, a few minutes' walk away. A large chain pharmacy with a wide range: fever reducers and painkillers, cold and throat remedies, stomach medicine, plasters and dressings, vitamins, and hygiene and care products — the things most often forgotten at home or suddenly needed on the road. Opening hours are usually from morning until late evening (roughly 8:00–22:00). For a guest from another city this means peace of mind: no need to search for a night pharmacy across unfamiliar districts — almost everything you might need is 3–4 minutes from the hostel.
