This was my second stay at the Express. I had to return to visit Chernobyl! The hotel is clean, rooms are fine (maybe too warm but just open the window), hot water is on tap, laundry cleaning costs reasonable though the breakfast is unappealing. Am not sure if its a russian breakfast, but it looks to be food left over... More

Stayed for two nights in September. Our room was clean, beds comfortable and clean. Bathroom was clean and re-stocked with towels and toiletries daily. The little sitting room with fridge and mineral water was a real bonus. The receptionists were friendly and helpful. Breakfast was a buffet and there was plenty on it to suit most tastes. The hotel is... More

I didn't expect 5 star luxury, but the room I had was definitely on the worn side, clean but old. However, the room was incredibly hot and the only means of cooling was to open the windows - which let in a large amount of traffic noise and hordes of mosquitoes. Sleep quality was poor because of this. The reception... More

Stayed here with a group of friends, and had a very enjoyable week in Kyiv, fine hot sunny weather every day. I thought I would do a review on the hotel, because some earlier reviews were a bit poor, and I found it nothing like these. Clearly not an upmarket hotel, but clean & comfortable and quite cheap, but in... More

This is the second hotel I stayed at in Kiev. I first stayed at Oselya. The room at Oselya is much nicer, cleaner, and has a huge bathroom compared to Express. I chose Express this time because it was supposedly a fairly "new" hotel, it's closer to the city and to the train station. My first impression of the room... More

Western style hotels are unusually expensive in Kyiv and the Hotel Express is a decent option bc it is very reasonable and has a location within walking distance of the train station. I stayed here at least half a dozen times from January to June 2010. It was recommended by the people I was working with. The first few times... More

Very new hotel, in the city centre. Large rooms and very omfortable bed, linens and towels. I can assure you that I am most satisfied. Like fellow travellers have commented, the room and bathroom are spacious. All staff very helpful but reception especially fab. Lovely breakfast too! More

This hotel was ok (for Ukrainian standards). I stayed in a standard room. The room is quite simple, with a good bed, the bathroom is not that great but in general everything is ok. In my humble opinion, the breakfast buffet is really good, with a nice choice of Ukrainian salads. From the breakfast room/restaurant on the top floor there... More

I travelled to Kiev for a weekend with some friends to watch the rugby. My single room was very basic, clean but quite adequate for one person on a city break for the weekend. We only paid £90 for 2 nights B&B. The hotel is located close to a metro station and close to some beautiful landmarks. From the top... More
