“Good value and trying hard”

I enjoyed staying at the Hotel Sport. A good-ish location, decent value for money, and a bit of a "blast from the past" experience.

I enjoyed staying at the Hotel Sport. A good-ish location, decent value for money, and a bit of a "blast from the past" experience. I booked directly off the hotel's website which had a fast and competent response. I had asked for a room on the highest floors available and was given one on the 16th floor - this offered good views across Kiev (at this stage most of the view is of construction being done for the Euro 2012 football tournament - the hotel is next door to the national stadium). The hotel is clean and safe and and well maintained and well run. Management have made a good effort in the relatively simple facilities available to them. The rooms are basic but very adequate. Mine had a huge refrigerator and balcony. Very good rates (530 UAH (about $65) per night for a single room) and particularly compared to what's on offer elsewhere in Kiev. The location is very convenient - about 3 minutes from the metro and about 25 minutes' walking to the center. The staff are somewhat grumpy (the hotel is managed by the ministry of sport and tourism ..) and they would do well to find someone who smiled at the front door (rather than the security guy who glares at everyone). However, frankly, a little bit of service surliness is all part of "the Ukraine experience". There's a restaurant on the top floor and many eating options at all price levels within a few minutes from the hotel. Also a couple of big supermarkets very nearby. The hotel is also on the "right" side of Kiev when it comes to leaving to go to the airport so this is an added convenience.

“Well located, cheap and clean”

The hotel is just half a block from the metro station which is two stations away from the city's main square. The building itself is old but it's still acceptable. The rooms were clean. The bathroom has a tub which looked stained but I guess it was just really old. The room was decently sized, it h… more

The hotel is just half a block from the metro station which is two stations away from the city's main square. The building itself is old but it's still acceptable. The rooms were clean. The bathroom has a tub which looked stained but I guess it was just really old. The room was decently sized, it has a fridge which can come in handy if you buy stuff from the mega grocery store two blocks across the hotel (you can see it from the hotel entrance). The main road where the metro station is seems to be a busy one with plenty of stores and restaurants. The hotel offers breakfast at an additional cost so we didn't try it. I think in its price range it's a great option. No luxury but clean and good location.

“Good Location and Good Value”

A typical ex communist hotel in the centre of Kiev, very basic but ideal if you are going on a lads trip.m The hotel is clean enough but don't expect any treat or smiles from the receptionist. I wouldn't recommend this hotel if your going a couple or family.

“Good location”

Good location almost in the center of the city. Clean, but small rooms with a tv and a fridge. Not much of a service. I haven't found another opportunity for booking a room except directly from official hotel site. Good thing is that you can pay for the half of the day. Breakfasts are not free.
