Near the terminus of tram 7 in Lviv's western suburbs, this far-flung hotel on the road out to the Polish border may not seem too promising, but it is possibly Lviv's best deal. Rooms are fully removated, spacious and well furnished, and contain little extras like kettles, sewing kits and hairdryers.

An entire Hello! magazine of homegrown celebs has stayed here (Ani Lorak, VIA Gra, Valery Meladze), their signed portraits lining the corridors. The breakfast is a bit 'wedding banquet' but there's enough of a choice to satisfy most tastes.
