An excellent example of a building designed to handle large numbers of holiday makers as quickly and efficiently as possible. 1006MW.

This is a huge medium rise concrete block.

The rooms are small to medium in size. The decore dates back to the Soviet seventies and although they are quite dated and tired, they are still functional, clean and offer essential comforts. The bathrooms still boast Soviet equipment for the most part, and although the decor might be a challenge, and the equipment lacking the design refinements found in higher class or newer properties, they do serve their purpose adequately.

There are many restaurants throughout this vast property, but the main one is on the second floor with panoramic views over the gardens and the sea. It is a large room, redolent more of an upscale canteen than an a la carte dining experience, but again it serves its purpose of serving large numbers of people as quickly as possible.

The lobby is large, featuring marble floors, dark wooden pillars and seating areas throughout. There are various kiosks, souvenir shops and slot machine facilities around and about as well as access to the various bars and small eateries located on the ground floor. This area is more functional than attractive.

The hotel is located in the Massandra area of Yalta about a 15 minute drive from the very centre.
