Business travellers, couples and short-stay visitors who want to walk to restaurants, shops and parks will be well served. The property lists a restaurant, free Wi-Fi and air conditioning, and carries a pets tag.
If you want a long list of facilities, this may feel basic. Some guests think the rates are high for what the hotel offers. Families should note that family rooms are not listed in the data, so check room types first.
Location and getting around
The address is Lazareva street 6, and the location score is 9.7, the hotel's strongest number. Guests describe it as being in the city centre, close to restaurants, parks, shops and transport links.
St. Michael's Cathedral, Cherkasy, is about 1.2 km away, roughly 15 minutes on foot. That walking time is a straight-line estimate, so the actual route may take a bit longer.
What guests say
The score is 9.0 out of 10 from 823 reviews. Two themes stand out: the central location and cleanliness, with guests saying rooms and shared areas are tidy and well maintained.
Opinion splits on price. Some guests find the rates fair, while others feel they are high for the amenities on offer. Room size, noise, renovation condition and cancellation terms were not assessed.
Price and how it compares with our other Cherkasy picks
The reference price was €58.11 per night, about €116 for two nights for 2 adults in one room. These are reference prices seen for a 2-night stay in November 2026, not live quotes, so check today's price for your dates.

Why it made our top 3
We compared 6 eligible properties in Cherkasy. The Best Value slot weighs guest score, number of reviews and price rather than picking the cheapest hotel. This one ranked joint second of six on review score.
A 9.0 rating from over 800 reviews, an excellent location and a price right around the median made it the most balanced choice.
