Holiday rentals near Kyiv Pechersk Lavra

We were very happy with all aspects of Sherborne Hotel. Great area which had a quiet residential feel yet very close to excellent restaurants and attractions, such as Pecherska Lavra and the beautiful parklands. The staff were very helpful. We slept soundly every night even through the thunderstorm that swept through Kiev during our stay. We would recommend this to anyone who doesn't want to stay in a large hotel.

The apartment was a good size with a small kitchen, living area, bedroom and bathroom on the first floor of an old block one of the main roads into Kiev. The kitchen had an excellent cook-top and oven with a very good fridge and separate freezer. It was let down by having very few useful cooking implements, no microwave cooking implements and previously used dishcloths. The lounge was not very clean and the chairs for the table were dirty and smelled. One was filthy, smelt and was stained. The bathroom was a good size but there was no plug for the basin making it difficult to shave and the shower was partially blocked with water pooling and taking a couple of minutes to drain away. Also one roll of toilet paper was supplied for our four night stay. The apartment could easily be improved. It will take a lot more to fix the run down and shabby exterior with its broken front steps and dark, drab entrance area.
