Overall, the Hotel is new and fairly elegant.
The rooms were fine and the service was great. Rooms were clean and "Western". The bathroom had above average comforts and worked well. My room had an Oval glass shower with room for two and plenty of Hot Water! Housekeeping kept restocking shampoo and soap supplies daily, bring your own conditioner.
The Staff was excellent, (Maria and Svetlana) are fairly well versed in English, and made every effort to make my accomodations cozy. One of the male staff ran down the street when I arrived, bought flowers (Roses), and delivered them to the Hotel Restaurant right on cue during my dinner date. "She was very impressed!" The staff was always quick at taking care of small errands or any task such as Champagne glasses and the occasional need for extra towels.
The glass elevator and atrium are modern and have a beautiful view. There is a large Park directly behind the Hotel and my room had a small outdoor Terrace facing the Park. Some rooms have terraces that open up to the Atrium, which is directly above the open-air Restaurant. There was a phone and satellite TV in the room with 1000+ channels in every language.
One of the staff was kind enough to make a romantic invitation phone call (in Russian) to my date the next morning, advising them of the day's Agenda.
it is in a good area of Centre City downtown, but NOT in the middle of a Tourist trap. (like some other Hotels) There is a Doorman to the building dressed in British style uniform. (looks like a Drum Major) The area is very clean, clear of Free-loaders or ladies of the evening. This was the perfect place to meet and entertain guests, or bring your wife or bride to be. There is also a business conference room with computer accessories and internet, if you left your wireless laptop at home.
It was very affordable compared to competing fine Hotels in Odessa.
