This is a last-ditch resort out by Holosiyvsky Park, the cheapest rooms are non-renovated and lack air-con. Service is professional.

This grand Soviet lady on pl Evropeiska keeps shedding her skin, undergoing renovations that keep shucking off the old tacky stuff and installing classic Western-style low-level elegance...

If you're a businessperson arriving in Odesa on expenses, this smart hotel in a pretty much perfect location is probably where you'll be staying. The stylish rooms have high ceilings, exquisite oak desks, and plenty of unused space...
It's all about the glory of fine marble and the decadence of brocaded upholstery in this world class five-star hotel. Rooms are smallish for the elevated prices, but service is as hoity-toity as it gets...
On a well-trafficked but beautiful avenue - just one block from the truly hectic riverside street - the small, carefully remodelled Impressa has a grand, nostalgic look and ambience that are reminiscent of New Orleans' French Quarter...

The city's first international hotel had been well established as the city's best until the 2007 Hyatt opening jeopardised that title. The sumptuous rooms have fluffy beds that invite entry via flying leap, and the Asian spa is a nice touch.

Helpful staff, a café producing good coffee and some decently renovated ‘superior’ rooms might make this hotel seem worth the premium...
Balancing at the end of a long pier and reaching toward the heavens, Odesa looks more like a space shuttle than a hotel. Service is problem free but nothing special and the rooms themselves don't really seem to warrant the elevated rates...
Unrenovated Soviet hulk by the stadium pushes boundaries of comfort; will go under the knife before Euro 2012.
