Petrani Central, hotel in Kiev

A 10-minute walk to Vokzalna Metro Station in Kiev, Petrani Central offers comfortable rooms with free Wi-Fi. Khreschatyk and Maidan Nezalezhnosyi Square are 3 metro stops away.

A perfect experience! I stayed here many times before COVID and the war, and it's still an excellent hotel in 2024. Located just 500 meters from the southern central railway station, it offers a quiet retreat away from the noisy streets. There’s no better value around the train station. The apartment was in perfect condition, very clean, and modern. The staff were very kind and helpful. The room had a well-equipped kitchen, a washing machine, and a nice bathroom, along with a pleasant inside park and a nice terrace (my room was with balcony and separate entrance). The kitchen had tea, coffee, and other essentials. The hotel offers a great balance of quality and value for money. Parking is free on the street, and there are several supermarkets and cafes nearby. Well done! Thank you so much for providing such a great place!

- the concept of this hostel as hotel is very well realized - the standard of accomodation is higher than other hostels in Kyiv - apart from toilets it's really clean and comfortable - internet works fine and capsule is comfortable enough if you need some privacy - hostel rules are written very smartly and clearly, unfortunately some people don't follow them
