Bratislava Hotel

Kyiv


In an old-school Soviet high rise on the left bank, Bratislava caters to business travellers, offering plenty of services and smartly renovated rooms. Nothing too fancy, you'll just pay a lot less than you'd pay for a similar hotel in the centre. It's a five-minute walk to Darnytsya metro station and a 10-minute taxi ride to trendy Rusanivka Island.
