This recently extended B&B near the market just gets better and better. Rooms in the new building are fragrant with pinewood and combine traditional Hutsul bedspreads with ultra-modern showers.
At Uzhhorod's finest digs the choice between 21st-century predictability, baroque opulence or swish art deco may be a difficult call, as all the rooms here are immaculate, very well maintained and sumptuously cosy.
A cheap and good choice for German speakers, this family-run B & B has a nice feel, but is difficult to find, so ask to be picked up.
If you wish to stay here, the best-known accommodation is Kermanych, where log cabins have been built around a restaurant, a Russian banya (bathhouse) and a Finnish sauna.
Prutets Sadyba is a surprisingly chic place for a rural setting. With sheepskin rugs and a vaguely Scandinavian-like fireplace in the open living room, it seems a bit like a ski pad straight from a vodka advert.
These 27 European-style rooms are as sweet as can be and are great value, especially the singles, which are on the top floor (no lift) and have skylights and sloping ceilings. As Uzhhorod's best deal it's popular, so book ahead if you can.
B & B Nad Cheremoshem is picture-postcard idyllic. Covered in climbing flowers, this rustic red-brick cottage sits on the Cheremosh River, and has a barbecue site, above-ground pool, sauna and private apiary.
You'll know you're on the right track to this superb B&B, as the street is signposted in English from around 200m away.
The nine-room Magnat is a midweek hideout for business travellers and you'd be doing well to get a bed here without reserving. It's tucked away in a tiny off-street alley; look for the bed sign.
The Soviet-style Dnister has nice staff but depressing rooms, and the shared bathrooms could use a little scrubbing. The hot water supply is also unreliable.
Despite the name, there's nothing particularly European about this unexciting hotel. Although quite recently built, it takes a leaf out of the Soviet-style book. Still, it is nice and central and has a cafe-restaurant serving basic meals.
This yellow neoclassical building, in Mukacheve's attractive central pedestrian zone, has rug-lined, flagstaff halls and dark wooden doors leading to spotless rooms with minibar and international satellite TV.
