Arkadis Hotel

So we were looking for a nice place to stay in Odessa. There are may hotels rockin' their 1950's de-core but a lot of them were quite expensive.., that is until we came across Arkadis. Unfortunately there was little online information and no one had written any comments about this place. What we didn't know was that Arkadis was brand new. A family owned "hotel" if you will. Andy, the owner, and his family are lovely. Andy speaks English and happy to help you where he can. The rooms are lovely, brand new and modern which is a breath of fresh air in the Ukraine haha. N.B: Although his address is listed 18-A Kamanina Street, the entrance to his place is not exactly on the main Kamanina Street itself. In fact in taxi you will find 18 for sure, but you need to go around the back. Imagine a big square, if your taxi is parked outside the little shop that sells booze then Andy's place is right behind that, but you will need to walk around the road to get there. So the easiest way is, if you are facing the shop the to the right of the shop is a road, turn left, walk 2 minutes and take the first left then walk down and Andy's place is on the left. It's just a big brown metal gate (There was no sign when we went there, so maybe this has now changed) Push the buzzer and he'll let you in. Andy's house is on the left, the 2 story "hotel" is on the right. From what i remember, there are 4 rooms downstairs and 4 upstairs. Around the back is also a swimming pool as well, which is nice and refreshing. Andy's place is only 10 minutes walk down to Arkadia where all the night clubs are. There is also a beach. Go left and you'll have the better "free" beaches or go in to Club Ibiza for some nice house music, loungers and drinks during the day. You're going to have a great time, Enjoy!
