Hotel Rus is one of the largest hotels in Kiev, built as a large tower on a hill in the center of the town. It is mentioned in at least our guide as one of the top hotels in Kiev. It did however not really match our expectations. - The location is fairly good, with commercial streets and some of... more

My husband & I stayed in this hotel while on a tour in June 2008. The rooms were sparse but adequate, some with a view of city and others had a view of a huge stadium which was used in 1980 Olympics. The breakfasts were above average in a room with colorful tile wall in one area. The bar extended... more

The RUS is a huge and international hotel in the centre of Kiev. The rooms are very clean and tidy- everything works there and the standard is totally ok. The food (breakfast and evening) is rather local or eastern type but hey, when in Rome do as the romans! There's a little bar (24h open) and some small shops selling... more

The accomodation and the service in the hotel are bellow any standards. The hotel contains the same size rooms which are classified into single standard and business class rooms are actualy the same. The different pricing for the same rooms is a kind of swindle. The quality of the breakfest is very poor. The parking spaces are often unavailable. Do... more

I stayed at the RUS for almost three weeks for a conference in a superior room. The hotel is up a hill a short walk from the city center. As with the nearby President Hotel the lobby looks much better than the rooms, which are a little run down (stained carpet, old furniture, small and unrenovated bathroom, unconfortable mattress). Their... more

I stayed at the hotel recently for a business trip as it was close to the office I was working in. I arrived in the late afternoon and went to check-in. The staff seemed disinterested and would rather be somewhere else. They processed my details and gave me a keycard to my room. I had to find my own way... more

I stayed at this hotel in Kiev in July, 2007. I travelled with a friend around Europe and we spent two weeks touring Ukraine. We booked a standard room through a travel agent, but upon arrival were upgraded to a deluxe room due to some hickup that wasn't explained to us. Outside the hotel was nothing special to look at.... more

We stayed here 3 nights and we were surprised with the hotel. First of all the staff speaks very good English which is a rare thing in Kiev. We stayed at the non smoking floor (14th) and the rooms were very clean and the beds are great. The rooms are very small but in the end the hotel is still... more

Stayed at this hotel as part of a travelsphere tour of Kiev/yalta & was pleasantly surprised. I'd say its pretty much a business user type hotel as it has large conference facilities but it was also fine for us tourists. The rooms are a replica of the hotel advertisement picture, really nice actually but pretty small, same with the bathroom.... more
