Hotel Ukraine

Excellent location for a visit, staff were brilliant as well (given the current situation). The room was nice but the bathroom had a bit of a smell to it which the cleaning staff fixed very quickly. Overall definitely recommend for a few nights stay.

I stayed here a few days in early May and loved it. Nothing fancy because there is a war on, but the staff was great and you can tell they appreciate our support. I thought the breakfast was good. Again, nothing fancy, but it was healthy, there was plenty, and the little croissants were really, really good. Loved the coffee, too. There is a nice view from the restaurant.||The attractive, young lady that checked me in let me get in the room early which was a godsend if you take the night train into Kyiv. The sweetheart working the cloak room watched my bag for me after check out and reminded me of the good spirit that persists in Ukraine despite the daily hardships of war. This too, is a godsend, if you are taking the night train back to Warsaw.||The hotel is very central, and the view from my balcony was amazing, both day and night. Currently there is a memorial for fallen troops left front of hotel. You can buy a little Ukrainian flag from an old couple that are there almost every day, and place the flag next to the numerous photos of lives cut short. There is an underground mall directly in front of the hotel, and under street cross walks that make walking very easy. There are a plethora of restaurants, pubs, and souvenir shops in a half mile radius. A super nice post office is right across the street. The national bank and art museum are up the hill and behind the hotel and this street is blocked, but there is also extra security in this area. Witnessing the pattern of tracers and search lights, it was my opinion that this hotel is in a very safe location. My room had a refrigerator for beverages and a chair that fit on the balcony for enjoying the evening festivities. Sleeping in was easy and comfortable…but, try not to miss breakfast. ||The hotel is big and open, with four elevators and a marble staircase to the restaurant, the echoes of restrained grandeur are prevalent. It has a cool vibe of Soviet secrets shrouded in dim corners. I’m betting the guest list would raise eyebrows in my university political science department. ||The lobby bartender in the afternoon each day reminded me of the stalwart pier piling that had weathered storm after storm and still stands strong. The lines in his face and sparkle in his eyes translated more with less. I enjoyed my Jack and Coke Zero each day upon return and considered myself fortunate to have crossed his path. I very much enjoyed my stay at this hotel, and certainly will never forget my temporary camaraderie with the friendly, helpful, and tough Ukrainians making my stay an oasis in a beautiful, bustling, but beleaguered city. I will stay here next time, too.

This historical hotel us nestled in the heart of Kyiv and stone throw away from the Metro stations and other shops and tourists sites which are all accessible by walking.||||Unlike the 5 star Intercontinental Kyiv, Hotel Ukraine is a four-star hotel with very historical significance to the country.||||Formerly known as Hotel "Moscow", this hitel gives you a stunning view of the city and my room was just across the Victory Column or Independence Monumen with stunning view of the city, day and night.||||I enjoyed my breakfast there during my recent stay and the food is great but the breakfast starts at 7:30AM. The variety of bread and cold cuts, local juice and food selections are satisfying. It will give the Holiday Inn Express Monheim am Rhein a run for their money in terms of breakfast selections and service.||||It's safe, has perfect location and helpful and friendly people

I stayed for two nights. In my opinion, the hotel has everything what you want. Good room, good view, good bed, good bath. The room also has a little refrigerator, many plugs and lights and a TV. You must pay for breakfast separately but it is worth doing so. The girl who greeted me at the reception was great. I don't know her name but she was the one who took my data. You are fantastic! A great hotel in the middle of Kyiv!!

The rooms are okay, but the staff were nowhere to be seen. Only a bunch of randoms coming and going. Be aware of the snipers at the 11th floor though.

I arrived after having completed a 3 day drive from the U.K. the hotel seemed empty, even on the last weekend in August. It was a 1970s hotel, more comfortable than you might expect of a Soviet era institution. It is well maintained, clean, the receptionist helpful, the room comfortable and well appointed (quite cheap - only 3/4 of the advertised price.) I did not have time to sample bar, cooking or in-house services. The room faced north west and had an astonishing view towards Maidan Square. Access by car was tricky, as was finding my way back on foot after an evening out. Aside from this, if you want your first visit to Kyiv to be memorable, then I would recommend it.

Big old soviet style hotel. Clean with good bomb shelter that has good wifi. Didn’t eat here so can’t comment but the place was comfortable enough. If you miss the siren then the intercom in your room will ensure you don’t sleep through the warning

It’s an old hotel but all services work without interruption. Great location, friendly staff. All rooms function - lights, heat, aircon, TV, great internet, bot and cold water AND a bath tub! Plus, the rooms facing the square have amazing views.
