People who travel a lot for
business purposes or just for fun definitely know what the most important thing
is missing in any place of the world except native. Of course it is "home
from home" atmosphere, the warmth of hearth. If you ever go to Ukrainian Kiev,
do not hesitate to take up your residence in homey private apartments, instead
of noisy hotels with obtrusive service. This city has a lot of variants to
offer for those who has got rid of
hotels. Kiev apartments, whether it is a
separate flat or a room in private inns, is available for daily rent that is
the most convenient way if you are coming for a short trip.
Choosing the exact location of residence is very important, it depends on several key factors, varying on
the purpose of your trip. If you come to Kiev on business, you should take into
account the location of future apartment. It needs to be as close as possible
to the main place of meeting with your business partner (place of holding a
conference, presentation, etc.). The main part of business institutions are
located in the right-bank districts (areas) of Kiev, such as Pecherskyi, Shevchenkivskyi, Podilskyi and Obolonskyi areas. As for local apartment Kiev offers a
wide range of packages from "budget
single-room flats to luxurious apartments with 24-hour security service and
comfortable guarded parking. Even the "budget" variant can be rather
expensive for foreign visitors, but the main advantage is no need to spend much
on transport and of course, saving the time.
Noisy districts do not mean "noisy" flats. Most of renters took care
about the quality of service, so in most cases you can expect modern renovation
inside, good-looking interior, noise insulation and many other pleasant
trifles, depending on the price and your own preferences.
If you need to visit lots of establishments, located in various parts of the
city, the best variant for you will be to settle down near some central
underground railway station, so you will be ready in any time for travelling
around Kiev. If your status allows you to hire a private driver (or if he is
your due), the location of your temporary apartments can be only the matter of
your tastes. Want to be in the swim ? stay in the central part, want to spend
free time quietly in calm atmosphere ? take something located in dormitory
neighborhoods, like Sviatoshynskyi and Solomianskyi areas (right-bank part) or Darnytskyi, Desnianskyi
and Dniprovskyi areas (left-bank part).
To avoid traffic jams on the bridges, try to select apartments on the same bank
with most of your business locations.
As for the tourists, daily rent apartments in Kiev are the best way to save
money and find out more about "real" city. Kiev hotels, even small
and ordinary ones, cost twice more expensive than private apartments. If you
travel in a company of several friends, all you can settle in one flat, instead
of renting several rooms. Private apartments are also good for those, who
prefer home meals usually they have kitchen with all necessary equipment. You
can train in cooking Ukrainian "borsch" or "curds". And of
course, living in a private flat, you will find out more about city itself,
will be able to make more connections with local people. Let’s make a little
review of the most comfortable places of touristic lodging.
The major historical buildings and monuments are located in Pecherskyi, Shevchenkivskyi and Podilskyi areas. You may wonder how business and
historical heritage sites can be concentrated on one area, but this is one of
the special peculiarities of Kiev. The whole city, except young suburbs, is
full of interesting architectural sites, as well as ancient and medieval
monuments, like churches, museums and statues, surrounded by exciting legends
and mysteries. The most convenient for living in is a Pecherskyi area, as it is
located in the heart of Kiev and contains a lot of sites, like Askold burial, Askold Grave Park with Saint Nicolas wooden
church, famous House with Chimaeras and many others. It is very comfortable to
live in Pecherskyi area, as it is also full of various entertaining sites art galleries, theatres, restaurants, etc.
Getting ready to visit Kiev, look through various web sites offering apartments
for daily rent in Kiev. There are hundreds of agencies, so you will have a wide
range of offerings. Try to contract with companies that have actual contact
information on their web sites, detailed apartments? descriptions with photos
and testimonials. This can help to avoid fraud.
When all is done, don’t forget to put your house slippers in the suitcase and
go to the trip with the full belief that it will be unforgettable travelling
experience!
