Stayed here on a work trip. Hotel is very old, very run down and probably needs knocking down. Stained carpets, water stains all over the cracked sink & bath, slatted ceilings had never been cleaned, mould on walls, plaster falling off walls, the list could go on and on. The breakfast was an experience........ we all kept getting electric shocks... More

Stayed in Bratislava as a base to go in and out of Vienna and to also see another country and city. We stayed at hotel Kyjev.The reception staff were very friendly and helpful. Our room was very basic and the most uncomfortable bed I have ever slept on.The view from our window was quite nice, with the castle in the... More

My room was on the 10th floor, but unfortunately, turned to the less-appealing side of Bratislava, so the view wasn't really attractive. The bed was comfortable enough, and the Internet worked just fine. Food was okay, but nothing special. The receptionist spoke limited English and wasn't too friendly. The location is really good, the Old town is a few minutes... More

This hotel needs an urgent revit. ! Stay at this hotel if you do like old cold war movies... If want the feeling that you're sleeping under surveillance of an indoor camera... If you want the feeling they are recording your voice on the bedroom and on the phone... If you want the feeling that there are some KGB agents... More

We stayed in hotel Kyjev for 2 nights. We arrived by train from Prague and the hotel was an easy tram ride away from the Central Station. It looks impressive and grand from the exterior and it was an important hotel during the days of communist regime when some important personalities also stayed here but now it has lost much... More

This hotel is a mere shadow of what it once was. A solid (?) concrete monolith built during the hey day of the communist regime. The bathroom was covered in mildew, the carpets were threadbare, the ceilings were water stained and the lift shook. But, the breakfast was huge and the bed linen clean. The biggest bonus was they let... More

Stayed here for a few nights while backpacking in europe. Rooms were spacious and comfortable. We were higher up in the hotel and the views were brilliant. Breakfast was basic but filled the spot. Security deposit and free internet were definite perks. Would recommend to anyone that doesnt expect 5* luxury.

I can't disagree with the reviewers who say the Hotel Kyjev is dumpy and dirty (I didn't really find it that dirty, just run down.) The rooms are very minimal and the beds are pretty bad; but I recommend it for the complete Soviet experience--except, the staff were friendly and helpful, which I suppose doesn't jibe with the "Soviet experience."...

Hotel Kyjev was an excellent budget hotel! It definitely has a feeling of communist-Soviet era, but it actually was very amusing and added a bit of personality. The rooms are perfectly fine, considering it was a budget hotel and the breakfast was amazing!!! There was free internet/computers and staff was very helpful. I would definitely stay here again!
