A rather random collection of places of interest and lodging that I’ve found during my travels in Ukraine. I can’t promise that you’ll like them as much as I did, but I hope so. The last time I checked, the information was still correct, but I take no responsibility if things have changed. Please let me know, though, if numbers have changed or sites are no longer available.

I also highly recommend reading through this great collection of news articles of interest to Americans traveling or residing abroad, compiled by the US Embassy in Ukraine.
