Organizing conferences in Kyiv is always about finding a balance between logistics, comfort, and location options. If your participants arrive by train, and you want to immerse them in a working atmosphere right after their arrival, pay attention to the Ibis Kyiv Zaliznychny Vokzal hotel, located at: 6 Sicheslavska St., literally next to the Northern Railway Station and McDonald's.

This is a hotel of the well-known international Ibis chain, which operates in a single conceptual style: smart, concise, modern. The interiors are inspired by the railway theme - prints with maps, train wheels, navigation symbols create an atmosphere of movement and logistical coherence.

Logistics and accommodation
The hotel does not have its own parking lot, but there is a logic to this: most guests arrive by train, so they do not need a car. If necessary, you can leave your car in the municipal parking lot near the station. Check-in at the station parking lot to the right of the hotel entrance.

The number of rooms is one of the largest among the Kiev Ibis:
✔️ 90 twin rooms
✔️ about 100 more rooms of different categories (singles, family, standards)

That is, if fully booked — for example, if the event is planned in advance — it is possible to accommodate more than 300 conference participants. This is a truly powerful advantage for an event agency working with large corporate events.

Conference service: a brief overview
As of April 2025, the hotel offers three functional conference rooms (the fourth room is on long-term lease for an office). The halls are named after the cities where the legendary Orient Express passed:
🌍​ Istanbul – 30 m²
🌎​ Budapest – 77 m²
🌏​ Paris – 90 m² (up to 90 participants in theater seating)

All halls are equipped with:
✔️ mobile furniture (the space can be transformed)
✔️ flipcharts
✔️ installed projectors and screens
✔️ sound systems (in medium and large halls)
There are pockets for coffee breaks, a bathroom for people with disabilities, free passage for wheelchairs.

Ground floor infrastructure
🛎️ ​Reception desk with a grocery kiosk (open even during curfew)
🧘‍♀️ Smart lobby with soft sofas
🍸​ Contact bar and business area with computers
🍽️​ Restaurant with a buffet line and coffee point (effective lunch/breakfast format, but, unfortunately, not suitable for gala dinners)

The restaurant can accommodate a gala dinner for 25 people, and that in conditions of coexistence with other guests. If you are planning a full-fledged gala dinner, it is better to immediately look for another venue for a banquet. Note that a restaurant in the format of a regular dinner can accommodate a large number of visitors.

Shelter: what is important to know
In the event of an air alarm, guests go down to the shelter in the basement parking lot, which is located 10 meters from the service entrance (you need to walk along the street). It is quite spacious, but:
🚩 there is a smell of the kitchen from McDonald's (which is above it)
🚩 during an alarm, both employees and guests are there
🚩 there is no talk of silence, confidentiality or a private atmosphere

It is not recommended to hold events in the shelter itself, but it exists as a backup site, and this is already a plus.

Conclusions: should you choose Ibis Zaliznychny Vokzal?
The Ibis Zaliznychny Vokzal hotel is a strong solution for conferences, trainings, multi-day forums with a focus on central logistics, especially if your participants arrive by train.

This hotel is an excellent solution not only for holding conferences on its territory, but also as a base hotel for accommodating participants of large-scale events taking place in other locations in Kyiv: exhibitions, competitions, championships, festivals or congresses. Thanks to the large number of rooms and convenient transport accessibility, you can comfortably accommodate participants from different regions for several days.

Pros:
➕ convenient location (1 minute from the station)
➕ large number of rooms
➕ modern conference service
➕ fully equipped halls

Cons:
➖ no place for a gala dinner
➖ small number of halls (maximum - 2-3 sessions in parallel)
➖ shelter - basic, not for work

Summary from the event agency

One of the locations that we actively recommend is the Ibis Kyiv Zaliznychny Vokzal hotel. Its conference rooms are ideal for business events with up to 90 participants. The convenient location near the station is an advantage for guests from other cities, and the ability to accommodate participants for several days is important for larger events. It is at this location that we have implemented dozens of projects, and we know exactly how to work with its space.

As part of our conference organization service, we take on the following:
✅ selection and booking of a suitable hall;
✅ seating, technical preparation (sound, screen, broadcast);

Conference service in Kyiv today is not only access to the halls, but a full cycle of event management. That is why more and more companies entrust this task to professionals, and not scatter resources on individual contractors.
