Stayed here 1 night.....what a mistake. The reception area is so dark but that only gives you a faint impression of whats to come. Whilst the staff are pleasant and helpful on reception and the bar restaurant off the reception area the breakfast staff on the 16th floor were so miserable. ||My room whilst clean was very bland. The bed linen was full of mites. As soon as I was on or nearly i could feel myself being attacked. Luckily there was a spare duvet which was clean off any infestation and a good night sleep was had. The vents on the aircon unit in the room was also broken and was unable to get any height on the shower as any catch to tight to hold shower head to any height was non existent. ||The menu in the room is for the restaurant on the 16th floor but there is no restaurant there as only serves breakfast. There is a advertisement in all lifts showing what you can expect from the buffet breakfast........that is a not what you get in reality. The fried eggs do make an appearance at some point but the rest of the what is shown is a false advertising.||The food served in the bar restaurant in lounge are is hot and fresh although the chicken kiev was well overcooked and the prices are on the steep side.||Wifi is pretty decent in public areas but in my room was very patchy or zero at best||The hotel in my view needs a complete...
Read morePlease do not rent at this place. I stayed for 5 nights unfortunately not once they made the bed or changed the sheets, the first day they didn’t even come to clean the bathroom and change towels I had to go to reception and requested some towels, I was here in January so it’s freezing cold outside and so was inside the room and again went to reception to have them check the heater but she was very rude about it of course the language barrier was a big problem here no one speak English it was very frustrating even though I was using google translator she was still rude and they had to bring a second heater in order for the room to warm up. The table lamp wasn’t working, their breakfast is absolutely disgusting all the food was cold and there is no water to drink so don’t be fooled what they say breakfast included because it is no worth it and food is keep in Ukraine mind as well go out and have a real local food. The only good thing about this hotel is it’s location but again it is not worth staying there for that reason because transportation is dirt cheap. Finally if you come to Ukraine during winter be prepared to freeze lol bring the thickest...
Read moreThis is a good standard 3 star hotel. The rooms are clean and on the higher floors you have a great view in all directions.|It is close but not too close to the main railway station (you can see it in the distance from the hotel) and it is opposite the botanical gardens and about 250 mtrs from a metro station|It is not centrally located for the tourist destinations, they are all a good 20 minute walk away and Kiev is very hilly but you could always use the metro nearby.|The hotel decor is pretty much soviet era very dark and functional, and the room TVs look like something from the 60’s.|Bathrooms are tiny, sitting on the loo with the sink literally over your lap!! However the shower was hot and strong (probably stronger than the shower cabinet)|Within two minutes walk on the same street, you have a very popular ethnic restaurant, a cafe also selling gorgeous chocolates and a bar selling equally gorgeous cider..|If you can cope with the long walk to the centre, then this is a fairly good place to stay. Hopefully management will spend a bit of money brightening the place up, replacing those antique TVs and improving the WiFi which is very...
