Watch out for the bar
While the hotel staff were friendly and the location excellent and room clean and good - the behaviour of the bar staff spoiled what would otherwise been a great stay. Specifically, the bar staff cheated on the bill - increasing prices above what was on the menu - and providing drinks that were cheaper and different to what we ordered thinking we wouldn't notice. When this was brought to their attention, the reaction was one where the manager admitted that they were cheating, showing no remorse or even apologizing - it leads me to believe that this was no accident or isolated case. This is very disappointing as this is the first time we encounter such activity in a hotel of the quality that Citadel Inn is in Ukraine. The bill was ultimately cancelled but its not about the money - its about the service quality and the disgusting feeling you get.

Enjoyed the Historic Hotel
We enjoyed our stay at this historic hotel. The staff members were friendly and professional. The breakfast was good, and the room was extremely quiet. The bed was comfortable and the shower was hot. Even though you are in what was once a fortress, the wifi works good. The only thing you should note is that you do have to walk up and down a hill anytime you want to go into the center of the city, but they do have a path you can take that is helpful.

I always enjoy this hotel
The ambience is great, it is a former prison :) now a top hotel close to the city centre. The staff is friendly but as often the case in Ukraine, various degrees of English proficiency. I especially appreciate the ability to late arrivals and still have my clothes ironed, washed or both - a must when travelling for business.

The hotel is great and it should be visited at least once. Although the exceptional quality, beyond what a travelers could excpect there is no A/c in rooms! Because the hotel is locat d in forest. However they have provided a fan and during this time of the year, no one needs A/c. They have upgrade our room and provide wine for free. Highly recommend.

Lynn

Liked: Cleanliness
The hotel is a renovated fortress. The front desk was very polite, but I am not sure if it is the hotel policy or the lack of experience of the staff, but I was told that they would collect the cost of the stay in local currency. The staff did not give me the option of paying in the local currency. They just charged my credit card. Unfortunately, I do not like to use my credit card in Ukraine and I also expect that I will be charged a foreign exchange surcharge. Also, they did not give return my passport which I did not realize until I woke up the next morning. The room was simple. There was only a shower and not a bath which I would expect in a 5 star hotel. The temperature was too warm for me and there is no way to adjust the temperature of the room. The staff was very helpful and most seem to speak English. They serve food in the bar 24 hours daily. The bottom floor they were using hookahs which I find disgusting. The restaurant which served the breakfast was good and dinner at the restaurant was good. They provided a complimentary 1/2 bottle of wine with dinner. It is a downhill trek to the central city. The return trip requires a steep climb. Overall, the hotel was twice as expensive and half as nice as other 5 star hotels in Ukraine.
