    This is the oldest hotel in Lviv. It was built in 1901 in the Neo-Renaissance style. Seems to be nice from outside but, unfortunatelly, it is not from inside. I would rather not recommend it. It is expensive and the price is not suitable for the quality.

    To start with, I got `first class` room as I was told that there are no more vacancies. It occured when I arrived that the hotel is almost empty. Firstly, there was cold in my room as the floor and the ceiling are far from each other. I asked for the additional heating but I was told that it is not allowed to use it in hotel rooms. What is more, they were trying to encourage me that my room as a `first class` room is the hotest in the hotel. Apparently, I was very cold! Secondly, it was something odd with hot water. You must open the tap and let the water run for about 15 minutes to have it warm! There will be no hot water even after 30 minutes. Moreover, you need to pay extra for brekfast. I am able to do it unless I get something what is impossible to eat. Brekfast was very poor and served differently each day. It depended on who was a waiter at the time and wheather he/she was more or less lazy.

    What reffers to the facilities they where ok but recalled Soviet style. For example pieces of ferniture or TV set, and even towels, were old and in my opinion should be changed. The reception is not open 24 hours. There is a portier down but you cannot pay for the room in the early morning as there is no reception staff.

    They accept credit cards (Visa and Mastercard).

    This hotel is historical. I had a room for myself without facilites which means using the toilet and shower down the corridor. Never had the problem that the toilet wasn't free but there is only one shower on the floor. There was a TV and a sink in the room. Laundry service through the chamber maids is possible and prices depend on the maid. Some make real fantasy prices.

    Breakfast can be had and is a set one and unfortunately no buffet. For about USD 4 you get half a glass of juice, one cup of tea or coffee, some bread with butter, cheese and sausage and something warm.

    My room was about USD 20.00 plus breakfast.

    The money changing facility in the lobby has pretty good rates. After check out, it's possible to leave luggage free of charge.

    I would use this hotel again.

    On both our trips in 2007 and 2008 we stayed in the Hotel George. The Neo-Renaissance style building from 1901 is one of the oldest hotels in the Ukraine.

    With its beautiful lobby area and the grand staircase with stained windows it is a sight in itself and I always felt set back in time when walking through the long corridors.

    The rooms have high ceilings and two doors. The furniture is definitely not the newest, but this adds to the special charm of the hotel.

    Their 72 rooms come in different categories from De Luxe to Tourist Class. We stayed in a Tourist Class double room, which cost 220 UAH and included breakfast.

    Tourist Class means that you have a washbasin in your room, but shower and toilet have to be shared on the corridor. Just note that some of the shared toilets are squat toilets, but you have to know that on the 4th floor all toilets are proper toilets.

    I really couldn't complain about cleanness, also towels were usually changed daily.

    The breakfast is a set one with two courses, which are served in style by some lovely Ukrainian ladies. The staff were English speaking and very friendly. There was always a sort of guard in the lobby.

    We booked our room by e-mail, but on our second trip we even arrived one day earlier than expected and also got a room on short notice.

    The hotel is situated in the center of the city, on Mickiewicz Square, that is one of the sides of the central Prospekt Svobody. The building of the hotel was built in 1898 and has very nice interior in halls and staircase. The rooms are not so impressive, at least the single room I stayed in. My stay price was UAH 335 (EUR 48 around) and I had a room with bath and toilet and breakfast. You may have the room with sharing conveniences twice cheaper.

  • Nicely restored outside, fading luxury inside it is the historically most interesting hotel in town.

    Definitely the best location in the centre

    George: Gone down hill

  • Didn't stay here but walked in to book a room for a couple of nights later on in the week. To do that they sent me upstairs to the 3rd floor whre there was an office, but it was impossible to know which room to go into. A clearner told me to try the director's office. There there was an old woman with a pen and paper. After I asked whether I could get a room in two days time, she looked and looked and said maybe. When I said I'd think about it she accused me of wasting her time.

    On top of that the place actually stinks. It might be some strange disinfectant they use but it's terrible. I stayed here 5 years ago and thought it was great, but I think it's gone down hill in that time whereas it should be getting better. Maybe it's still state owned. The staff is all so old they probably worked there when it was intourist.

  • I will be going there in June, but I would liek to give some advice to someone trying to go to Lviv from a country requiring a letter of invitation or proof of hotel reservation.

    I used the website:
    www.selectukraine.com / hotelsukraine.com

    I paid $25 a night for a single budget room.
    A visa suport letter (required of US citizens) cost $31 and you can order it while booking the room online. They fax the letter anywhere in like two-three days confirming your reservation. Make a copy to keep with you and send it in with the visa application, which you can find at:
    www.ukremb.com/consular/visas.html

    We arrived Lviv at midnight one day in july 2006. We had not booked anywere. But we made a phonecall to George and they had a room for us.

    We stayed there for 3 nights in a doubleroom without bathroom. But the shared bathrooms were OK. It was not hot water all the time though.

    The hotel is a bit funny. The stairs and the building it self tells you that this has ones been a place with alot of luxury. It very much need a facelift!!

  • With one of the best locations in Lviv, the George has yet to adopt a new look or a new millenium service ethic. At roughly USD70 for a standard room, the George is not worth the expense, unless limited water hours, creaky floors, musty and unlit hallways, stuffy rooms and old Soviet-style accomodations and service are your cup of tea. The George's brochure notes "city tours arranged" - not so.

    Great location to begin a walking tour of Lviv's old town and end up at a different hotel!
