Top choice in Lviv
One of the historical centre’s finest places to catch some Zs. Every guest room in this 18th-century edifice is different, but all have a well-stocked minibar, elegant furniture and an Italian-marble bathroom with underfloor heating. Wheelchair-friendly facilities, a new spa/fitness area in the cellars and a pretty decent brasserie are extras you won’t find anywhere else.
The Leopolis comes to you from the same designer who fashioned Tallinn’s Telegraaf hotel.
