Traveller Comments....
"If Putin really wants to clean up his country, this is where he should start. Would someone please get his attention to this page" (?)
"First the atmosphere in the terminal building is awful, its dark like cave, dirty and small space." (?)
" I had a 17 hours wait between my flights (from 5pm to 10am next morning)and, to be honest, this was one of the most pleasant airports I have ever been into (and believe me, I have seen loads)." - Karmak

I've found a little known oasis for overnighters here at Sheremetyevo airport. I am in Terminal D, the new, modern international terminal. My stay here was 24 hours, overnight, and after reading the previous reviews on this site, I was convinced I'd have a rather uncomfortable evening ahead of me. But quite by accident, I made this discovery:
I was looking on the info board, and it pointed to a section to 'charge cell phones'. It was on the first floor, on the far right side, past arrival doors and taxi info desks. What I found when I got there was a whole section of comfy couches and chairs, full wifi, plenty of plugs for charging, and hardly any people, probably because it is on the arrival floor, and out of the way. There is also a cafe, same overpriced items as upstairs, but no one bothers you about buying things, it seems to be separate from the lounge area.
So I plugged in my iPad, got a coffee and settled in to a couch. That was at 8pm. It's now 6:30am, I slept on the couch, as did a few other travelers, and no one from the airport said a word.
Who knows how long this will last, but if you are here in the near future, give it a go! The couches are really comfortable.
The last review for this airport was in 2011. Have you been there recently? Tell us about it!
