We are plannig to travel along the trans-siberian route next winter, starting at Vladivostok and arriving to Moscow.
We are currently trying to obtain VISA support letter and voucher from a Hotel of Vladivostok.
Has anyone addresses of hotels or agencies at Vladivostok that could provide us with these documents and could also register us in this town?

Moreover, at Moscow airport, we will be in transit to Vladisvostok only three hours. Do you think these three hours are enough time to complete all the formalities for entering to Russia at the airport?

I travelled from Vladivostok to Moscow last November and stayed at the Vladivostok Hotel while I was there. I obtained my visa invitation thing from this website and it actually had that my invitation was from the Sputnik Hotel or something for my stay in Vladivostok but that didn't matter, when I arrived at the Vladivostok Hotel I just passed them my passport and visa registration card and they stamped it and filled it out. It worked fine and it's cheap to do through WayToRussia too. As for going through immigration in Moscow you should be fine, I flew into Vladivostok though and it took me about 20 minutes to get through, 19 minutes of that was actually waiting in line like any airport. It's not really as scary as it seems... my only problem was filling out the immigration card on the plane as we approached Vlad because it was entirely in Russian, I was lucky the businessman next to me spoke english and told me what to write where.... Good Luck with it.
