Hotels near Vydubytsky Monastery

"Hi fellow travellers, just to let you know that Hotel Rus, a 3* hotel, felt like a 4* and it was a welcome relief to come back to after a hard day's photography! I started my day with a fantastic shower that was like a HydroTherapy session - it was so hard, it felt rather like an Indian Head Massage - that got me off to a good start! I followed that with a hearty breakfast from their buffet selection, all of which were really well cooked and delicious with some great salads too. Of course, there's cereals too, with milk, Kefir or plain/strawberry yoghurt. Pancakes, with fine honey or jams; toast, croissants, sweet pastry delight of lemon or chocolate and of course, hot coffee or tea - what a choice and what a delight to start the day that way. I then went out for a day of taking many pictures of street art and graffitti, which are my passion, returning quite late in the evening after walking 24,967 steps, which definately required a nice soak in a hot bath - all soaps and towels etc., provided of course, with grooming routine finished with an efficient hair dryer - very necessary with short hair that looks like a hedgehog if not tamed into place with hot air! WiFi is vital and the signal is strong and constant with no lag time during searches. The bed was comfortable - slept like a log. The staff are all amazing and welcoming, so if you need to come to the vibrant city of Kyiv, which I'd encourage for a holiday, then I'd recommend Hotel Rus and look forward to my return soon."

"Upscale place with a great staff and good breakfast. "

"It was a great hotel. Its location was perfect. "

"Everything is close"

"Unfortunately the air conditioning didn’t work and it was very hot and humid. It was difficult to sleep even with the windows open. The WIFI was also unstable which made calls for my work a bit difficult at times. I would be in the middle of explaining something in a meeting and the WIFI would drop out. Also, the water temperature was varied a lot when taking a shower. The shower would start out warm and then changed to be freezing cold. Other than those few complaints, the staff were friendly, the rooms were kept very clean. Sheets and towels were changed out regularly. The room was modern. The kitchen had all of the standard amenities with new appliances. The bed wasn’t too hard and the pillows were comfortable. "

"Very nice hotel to stay."
