This is a spotless modern hotel at the edge of old town in a 1550 building that has been completely modernized. New elevator, modern kitchens in some rooms. I have stayed at some places in the Ukraine that look like an unrepaired bomb shelter from WW2 . This place is clean, modern and has delightful staff.||The rooms are large. I have a kitchen and have toasted my bread and cooked a cheeseburger with mushrooms. Bed is comfy, not too soft, not too hard. Lighting is superb. Bathroom has a modern open style shower (no full enclosure) a large sink with room for a man to put his shaving apparatus, a toilet and a bidet. ALl in sparkling new tile. My room with kitchen and breakfast included is 100$ a night. ||Room service is fast, delicious and reasonable. One night I had a giant plate of Italian meats, olives and sundried tomatoes. $9. Another night I had two pate bruschettas and two smoked salmon carpacio bruschettas with capers and onions. $8 All delish. Complaints.No diet coke. No fruit flavored soda water, popular in 2 liter bottles throughout the Ukraine (Ovalonska my favorite).. No desk to work at, just a dining table with hi chairs in the kitchen and a coffee table in the living area. No easy access to ice, but room service will deliver. ||Great location. No entrance on an accessible road but 20 yards behind the I walked.from the hotel to the Forum shopping center in 20 minutes. ||OLGA manages this hotel and is a pure delight. Lovely and thoughtful in her approach to...
Read moreThe hotel is in a historical building in the middle of the old town Lviv. The room/building is just wonderful. I was offered a room with separate kitchen. Even though it is situated at the back of the building so the there isn't view at all, it still provides wonderful experience. The thing that is to be desired is more on the service side. My room wasn't cleaned when I got back to the hotel at 4pm. I had to make a request and it was done in an hour after I made the request. So if you stay there, you may want to hang "clean room" sign on your door nob. Maybe that will speed things up a little. The shower room only has hand soap gel. I don't think it would destroy your hair if you use it as shampoo only for a couple of days but it would be nice to have at least shampoo/shower gel 2 in 1 instead of hand soup gel. Also the other comments are right about shower stand not having barrier so floor tends to be flooded, but if you shower a little more carefully, it isn't that bad. I didn't flood my bathroom for the two nights I stayed. Breakfast is very good. You could do buffet and (not or) order your eggs and sausages. Both are included. Overall, it is a...
Read more26/09/24 Well placed hotel in the center of Lviv, when we arrived from the boarder there wasn't another at the desk, there was a sign saying "Back in 5 minutes" and a number to called in case of an urgent matter, well 10+ minutes later and still nobody, then another guest arrived and he waited another 5 minutes then called the number, the girl on the desk was literally around the corner and was there in seconds. Our suite was large with a small balcony and a small kitchen, the only thing I wasn't fond about was there a bath in the main room with a thin glass wall I kept walking into during the night. The breakfast was OK, choice of 2 set plates and then whatever you want from the buffet, scramble eggs unfortunately were inedible due to the huge amount of salt, there was plates everywhere full of the still left by other guest, the lady serving us was lovely but couldn't speak English, her little girl that was there was so beautiful I would have like to photograph her but in the twisted world we live in today, I didn't dare ask. This was a nice hotel and I would recommend it, the staff were nice and...
