Kiev - July 2019

[Saint rob]

Can anyone recommend any accomodation in or near to Kiev?
Subject to all the Brexit bollocks at the end of March and Putins shenanigans, I'm planning a trip out to the Chernobyl exclusion zone and want to stay somewhere handy to pick up the transport so ideally not far from a metro station. I also don't really want to offload all the camping gear off the bike so secure parking would also be good.
I'll be going out via Colditz and Zagan (stalag luft III) and returning via Romania spending 4/5 days mooching about and riding the Transalpina and Transfargassan, visiting THE castle and whatever else I can find before making my way back through Hungary/Austria and back to Calais

I've stayed at the Hotel Ukraine in the centre, opposite Maidan a few times. It looks quite grand and is typically "Soviet" styled inside. Breakfast is ok, nothing great. 2 min walk to the Metro and they have a car park with a security guard out the front. I left my bike next to his cabin. I did remove all my stuff though, so that's up to you.
