Great LocationIntercontinental hotels are always fairly opulent in fixtures and fittings, and this was no exception. Everyone was very helpful and our room was great. Plenty of space, large bathroom etc. It's location is very good, literally next door to St Michael's Monastery (wonderful view at night especially ).
We had splendid martinis in the rooftop bar, but decided not to eat there. Instead we had a great meal, at a very reasonable price, at the ground floor restaurant. Very good service with a very knowledgeable waitress.
So ... why only 4 stars? Firstly, we thought that 39 euros per person for breakfast was extortionate for breakfast, so we went elsewhere for very little. But ,more importantly, on each of the 2 days we stayed there our keypads did not work. It is somewhat excessive to have to go to reception THREE times each day to have them reset. That is unacceptable and was a downside for an otherwise great stay.

Luxury&friendly with feel if KyivWe've been holding many business events it this hotel and place there our business-partners cause it is top-level hotel. The facilities for everything are exceptional - as for the conference, as for the living, as for fitness, negotiations or romantic dinner! The service is great, all hotel staff is well trained and is very professional with high level of speaking English. Meals are great and selective.
There is a parking under the hotel building. The hotel is located in the very heart of Kyiv and you just can walk around in order to reach very famous and must see pearls in Kyiv. In 2 minutes there is a funicular that leads to Podol - another historical part of Kyiv full of bars and restaurants.
The very remarkable thing in this hotel - the bar on the roof with a breathtaking view of the whole city center and far + with a top-level Asian cuisine!

Exceptional quality in the middle of KyivThere are some really good places to stay when visiting Kyiv....then there is the InterContinental. A definite cut above. Rooms simply perfect. Bathroom touches like the house slippers and thick shower robe....a bed that is just right...breakfast buffet that clearly excels....sushi and sashimi for breakfast in the middle of winter...This is best described as "impressive". Cigar bar and the best soup for warm you up on a cold night. Nothing more to say....this is the standard bearer.

Super hotel for business events - great rooftop barStayed at this hotel for a business event. The staff were professional, the rooms were clean and the business facilities good.
Highlight was the rooftop bar - excellent cocktails.
Perfect situation for visiting the city - lots of things accessible on foot.

Classic beautyI have visited the place few times but each one i feel i need to write someting. The hotel staff on front desk was amazingly helpful on all matters i needed. Location is great and rooms are clean and luxury. Wifi is free and fast and there are lots of places ground floor for meetings and relaxing. The hotel is situated in a quiet area next to St Michael Golden Dom Cathedral walking distance from the heart of Kiev. Kiev itself is a beautiful city and especially the area that the hotel is situated is the most beautiful one. The hotel is strongly recommended for business and family holidays.

Overall good stayFirst time in Intercontinental Kiev. The hotel lobby if nice, friendly English speaking staff and standard rooms have a “classic” style but overall beautiful. The Intercontinental Kiev Hotel Breakfast is a destination by it self: amazing choice and tasty food. Probably one of the best breakfast I had in a 5 start hotel.
However, being 5 start hotel, I also expect 5 start service. I have been disappointed by: old towels in the bathroom (string hanging), old shaving mirror which partially do not reflect anymore, terrible parking (a mid size suv do not fit!), no valet parking, staff knocking at the door even with the do not disturb panel hanging at the door.
Overall, Intercontinental Kiev is a good beautiful hotel and will be always glad to go back there!

Excellent Hotel - Just one dissappointmentWe stayed here on a visit to see friends who live in Kiev and our stay was funded by IHG points that I have accumulated over the last few years of work travel. The hotel was excellent the room, bed etc were all amazing and I would have no trouble recommending this hotel to anyone. The location is a 5 min walk from Maiden and Khreshchatyk St. The bar on the roof is excellent and has great views. Breakfast is expensive so we didn't partake.
The only sour note was when we asked the concierge to call a specific taxi firm to take us to meet our friends.
It turned out that they didn't call the number we asked them to but another firm which I presume they had on speed dial. this trip cost 270 UAH which although not a fortune. is almost 3 times as much as the return trip with the correct taxi firm 105UAH. This just left a bit of a sour taste to what was an excellent Hotel.

Very nice hotel with great serviceThis is a great hotel and I will likely return when I go to Kyiv (Kiev). The service was great as well as the breakfast. You get a great view from the 11 floor bar/restaurant/disco. It it also very well located. The one thing that I did not like was the bed. It was hard as a rock. Ukrainians apparently do not trust their banks and stuff their wealth in mattresses. I should have looked in mine, perhaps that is why the bed was so hard. Otherwise, you cannot fault this hotel. If you check out at 4:00 to get your flight, you can expect to see the women working the street in the lobby heading up the elevators. Their clients have either given them a key or they head up to the bar on 11th floor, which is open to 4:30am on weekends.

Home, away from homeFrom the outside, The building’s architectural style blends in nicely with the surroundings of Kiev’s historic buildings. From the inside, the hotel maintains the charming Intercontinental style I have experienced at other Intercon hotels around the world. The interior décor is elegant, with a soothing and cheerful character. I feel truly serene and at ease when I’m in my room. It is a place that I look forward to returning to at the end of a long day.
I have stayed at the Intercontinental Kiev a few times over the past two years and was never disappointed. The location is excellent within walking distance to most of Kiev's beautiful attractions. My experience has always been pleasant starting with the welcoming smile at the check-in counter, the concierge service, the breakfast crew, the room service, etc.
It is the professionalism and friendliness of dedicated Intercontinental staff like Katerina Khrapko who is always smiling with a beautiful positive energy, and Maryna Olkhova who is the reason why we all enjoy such great experience at the business lounge and Olivera Restaurant, it is people like them that makes me keep coming back to this hotel.

Excellent hotel close to many historic buildingsThe InterContinental is an excellent hotel in the centre of Kiev. Service is impeccable and all the staff and concierge service are extremely helpful as you might expect. Rooms are well appointed and pick up/drop off to the airport is also available as an extra. Allow for at least an hours travel to the airport by car. There is also a gift and clothes shop in the hotel as well as spar and other amenities. I would recommend Kiev as a designation for social or pleasure purposes. An interesting ‘modern’ yet historic city. The hotel itself is highly recommended!

Great hotel but noisy during the nightIn general a great hotel with a perfect location in the city center. The interior looks nice and the breakfast is really good.
However, there were some disappointments. First the room didn't look like the one I ordered at hotel website and expected. I chose a club king room on the executive floor and was quite disappointed with view and missing arch windows like shown on website. Second the sleeping experience was really bad. During the night I heard music/bass in the room (I guess from their rooftop bar).
The staff tries to act professional and to be nice but I often had the feeling that the behavior is too artificial and only facade. If you had some requests which were not matching the standard questions they seemed to happy and friendly anymore.
There are some more luxury options in Kiev and I think this hotel will stay a one time experience.
