This time — a very special review. Прищепкін Event-Team visited to see how the familiar event location in the heart of the capital is recovering — the Holiday Inn Kyiv, located at 100 Velyka Vasylkivska Street, with an additional convenient entrance from Antonovycha Street. This hotel has always been a favorite event spot on the map of Kyiv, and now it stands as a symbol of resilience and a return to life even after the most challenging times.

On December 20, 2024, two rockets exploded near the hotel. While there was no direct hit, the facade of the building was seriously damaged — windows were shattered, and part of the exterior cladding was affected. The facility halted operations for six months, but today we can see it gradually coming back to life: Holiday Inn Kyiv is once again ready to host guests, conferences, business meetings, and events of any kind.

Our event agency checked the space both from the outside and inside — to ensure we can offer our clients a high-quality, safe, and functional location. Here’s what we found: the hotel’s team is working with a reduced staff but with maximum dedication; the first events are already being held in the rooms; and the room stock is being prepared for full reopening — soon, standard and twin rooms will be available for booking.

The conference space at Holiday Inn Kyiv remains as convenient as before the attack:

🪑 Horodetsky Suite (69 m²) — up to 60 guests;
🪑 Malewich Suite (105 m²) — up to 90 guests;
🪑 Shelter 1 (60 m²) — up to 55 guests;
🪑 Shelter 2 (40 m²) — up to 20 guests;
🪑 Shelter 3 (45 m²) — up to 25 guests.

A particular pride of the venue — the Shelter zones. These are full-fledged conference rooms located on the basement level (essentially in a shelter), with three emergency exits. They were not affected by the blast wave and have fully preserved their functionality. Special attention should be given to Shelter 1, the largest of them. After recent updates, the room received new wall panels, making it brighter, more logically planned, and free of unnecessary partitions — a truly functional space for events in new realities. These conference rooms in shelters are especially in demand today among clients looking for a safe location in central Kyiv.

Holiday Inn Kyiv has 208 rooms, which will be opened gradually — only after a thorough check of each room for comfort and quality of stay.

Conference and business event organizers will soon find:

🛏️ 20 twin rooms;
🛏️ 80 queen rooms;
🛏️ 55 king-size rooms;
🛏️ 46 upgraded rooms;
🛏️ 4 suites;
🛏️ 3 specially equipped rooms for people with disabilities.

This room stock makes it possible to accommodate participants of even large events right at the location.

The Holiday Inn Kyiv restaurant is perfect for breakfasts, business lunches, or dinners, but we would not recommend organizing gala dinners here — the layout of the space does not allow for a comfortable full-fledged festive banquet. If you need to ceremonially conclude the conference or hold an evening reception, we recommend choosing one of the trusted venues nearby. One of them is the Georgian restaurant "Kuvshin," located just a few minutes away on foot, with a separate hall that can accommodate up to 60 guests for a banquet.

Holiday Inn Kyiv today is a place with special energy. Events dedicated to reconstruction, renovation, and post-war development are held here, and these themes resonate deeply in the walls that have stood strong. Organizing events at the Holiday Inn is not just a conference; it is a symbol of recovery and new beginnings.

Important note: All the photos presented in this material were taken before the missile attack on December 20, 2024. Due to security reasons, the hotel owners have not yet conducted a new photo shoot. The current state of the venue can be seen in the video review from Прищепкін Event-Team, filmed on April 30, 2025 — this video provides a complete picture of the changes and the current look of the space.

As before, we offer a full service cycle — from the initial ideas and event planning to the last napkin at the buffet. If you are looking for the ideal conference room in the center of Kyiv with a shelter, reliable organization, technical support, and clear logistics — this location, in partnership with Прищепкін Event-Team, will be your perfect solution.
