Kyiv’s riverfront has boomed in recent years and the Bakkara Art-hotel is definitely a fine addition to what is becoming one of the city’s hotspots. The hotel offers charm and class with prices that make sense. The rooms are fashionably decorated and comfortable. Room amenities include air conditioning, electronic security system, TV, free Wi-Fi, personal safe, hairdryer, mini-bar, telephone with direct international access and striking views of the Dnipro River and Trukhaniv Island. The hotel was the brainchild of the Kozynaya Karta restaurant chain, so expect top notch service and fare at the restaurant. The complimentary buffet breakfast is a crowd pleaser and the chef’s special seafood salads and baked veal come highly recommended. The conference room can accommodate up to 80, can be divided into two smaller rooms and comes fully equipped.
