We chose the hotel because of its proximity to Vorontsovsky Park and positive reviews. The park is really close. You only need to go down a few tens of meters and you are in the Garden of Eden. Hotel stay is ok. The room is quite cozy, well equipped, although there is one "but" - there is no normal view from the window.

We chose the hotel because of its proximity to Vorontsovsky Park and positive reviews. The park is really close. You only need to go down a few tens of meters and you are in the Garden of Eden.
Hotel stay is ok. The room is quite cozy, well equipped, although there is one "but" - there is no normal view from the window. But this is a trifle. We only slept in the room, spending all the time in nature.
Clean, cleaned and change towels regularly. Smiling maids, friendly administrators, trying to solve any problem. There are no complaints about staying at the hotel, but the restaurant KILLED everything. Expensive and tasteless. Service for 2.
Waiters with lean sour faces are in no hurry to come to your table. They are not up to the visitors, they are busy with interesting conversations among themselves or smoking breaks on the stairs behind the restaurant. The waiter Leonid Kostadinov was especially annoying with his antics. On the first day he cheated us. After that, in principle, they went to the restaurant only for breakfast, which is included in the price.
Breakfast at the hotel is poor, primitive and, alas, tasteless. I had no idea before how it is possible to spoil a fried egg or an omelette, in Mare Nero I realized that in experienced hands it is quite possible.
Sad, very sad! Due to the inability of management to clean up the restaurant, customers go to other places. We went to have breakfast and lunch at the Dnepr sanatorium (delicious pancakes and veal in wine), had lunch and dinner at the Royalta cafe.

We went on holiday in February. We traveled all over the Crimea and now... We got to Alupka. This hotel was chosen by chance and... were pleasantly surprised! Nice room and most importantly for the price is normal-825 rubles. day. Great restaurant and not too expensive. Cubby! I advise!

Were 5 days in Alupka. We booked a pistachio room in advance (there were no others available for August). The room is located on the ground floor, the windows and the door are on the patio. The room was clean, comfortable and cleaned every day. Breakfast is included and very tasty! Prices in the restaurant are relatively normal compared to prices in other restaurants and cafes in Alupka.

They issue a pass to the closed beach of the military sanatorium. Nature is gorgeous! Rested with children 2.6 and 5.6 years old. The kids liked everything!

Rested in the room Pearl, in April, in the low season. I’ll write right away for those who will be traveling around the same time: save on accommodation, but you will have to overpay for food with a vengeance. When we went to Alupka, to be honest, we expected that the rest would be budget. In Mare Nero, the prices at this time are more than pleasant.

Rested in the room Pearl, in April, in the low season. I’ll write right away for those who will be traveling around the same time: save on accommodation, but you will have to overpay for food with a vengeance. When we went to Alupka, to be honest, we expected that the rest would be budget. In Mare Nero, the prices at this time are more than pleasant. Moreover, for the children did not require any additional payment. The room has a very large wide bed (as a result, I slept on it freely along with two children aged 6 and 2). Plus there is a sofa that could be expanded, but it was already quite comfortable for one dad. The situation is the same in any other room, that is, you can use the sofa as an extra place. But the price included, respectively, 2 breakfasts. We had enough with the kids. The four of us were comfortable, although the room is not very large. It was convenient that there was a table in the room, you could feed the children, draw at it. (This is not available in all rooms). Plus, Zhemchuzhny has the largest balcony and the best sea view. At first I was worried that this was the 5th floor, it was difficult with children and a stroller. But the hotel is located on a hill, the first two floors are on a slope, and the restaurant, as it were, is on the 3rd floor. That is, if you enter from the side of the restaurant, and not from the street, then Zhemchuzhny is on the 3rd floor. I wrote tricky, but in general, 3 instead of the 5th, it's convenient. In general, I liked all the rooms that are higher and with a sea view. Venice, for example. There is also the inconvenience of our room - a restaurant fireplace. The restaurant occupies 2 floors in height, Pearl is directly above it, and when the fireplace was kindled there in the evening, the room smelled of smoke. Otherwise, everything was quite simple, but tasteful and comfortable.
Now food. The main item of expenditure) Thank you very much for the breakfasts at the hotel, it is convenient and tasty. Portions, by the way, are quite normal, two were enough for four. Coffee or tea was also included. The waitresses were friendly, courteous and served quickly. But I'm not sure that it will be the same in the high season. When we had breakfast, a large company came to the restaurant, about 10 people, and that's it, they collapsed. We had to wait 40 minutes for our breakfast. Apparently it's just not typical out of season, hopefully they have more people in the kitchen during the summer. Further, in their restaurant it was possible to take complex lunches, 60 hryvnias. For Alupka, this is more than budget. But I had to have dinner absolutely at Moscow prices. And this was the unexpected inconvenience of the "low season". There were only 3 restaurants in the city! And that’s it, there was no alternative to have dinner at least sometimes cheaper. In the summer, I think, there are no problems with this, at the end of our vacation, many cafes and restaurants were preparing to open. Mare Nero probably had the highest price tag. Just like in Moscow (I take average chain restaurants). It was tasty, but the portions for such a price are very small. On average, without alcohol for four, at least 250 hryvnia. Most of all we liked the "Karamba", however, I recommend everyone to have dinner and relax there. Somehow it is very sincere, the barbecue is just excellent, everything is delicious, the portions are large. The interior is cool, cartoons were shown for children, in general, everything is on the level. And in Mare Nero we acted as follows: we ordered dinner in the room, they have this service provided and even free of charge, we took our own wine and drinks. It turned out economically due to their alcohol and conveniently, since the children were busy playing games or watching TV, they could eat in peace!
Separately, I want to say about the administrators. Both are very polite, solved all questions, responded to all requests. Iron in the room, better clean up - everything was decided through them. And the best part, on the day of departure, the eviction was, in my opinion, at 12.00, and the train in the evening. It is difficult to stay outside with children all this time. And the administrator went to meet us, allowed us to stay in the room until check-out at no extra charge, although this had to be settled, the cleaning of the room was postponed, and the exact time of arrival was checked with the next guests - on the same day! Thank you very much for this.
And about the place itself. The location of the hotel is, of course, incomparable. Park, Vorontsov Palace, near the cable car, Massandra basement, Mount Koshka, in general, all the sights of the South Coast are available. I will only add that all this is of particular value in the spring, when there are few people, palaces and parks are not crowded with excursion groups, children can ride in half-empty minibuses, and so on. Plus, everything is already green, the birds are singing. The only thing they thought was that in the Crimea at that time it was stable +20. But it was different. The sea was sometimes stormy and cooler.
I will try to answer questions. In general, we were satisfied. I would definitely return to this hotel again. But I'm not sure about the summer season. Since the prices for accommodation, in my opinion, at this time in the Crimea are already extremely high. A little added - and you're already abroad)

Rested not in the summer of course, but I wanted to write a review! Went with the team to celebrate Christmas. I really liked the hotel, well, just a mini-fairy tale! Each room is decorated in a different style, beautiful, comfortable, the staff is polite. For Christmas we had a wonderful dinner, the hall, the Christmas tree, the fireplace were very sincerely decorated.

Were in a pearl room, just chic, excellent, clean, comfortable. Then we moved to the Golden Room, just terrible, small, dark, boring, gloomy, the bathroom is very small, the shower cubicle is dirty and old... The air conditioner was broken, it was very noisy during operation! The difference is very significant! Heaven and earth.

We spent the night there and moved to a nearby hotel! The money was returned without any problems!
Breakfast is good but boring! Everyone is kind and welcoming! I would go there again, but not to the Golden Room.
Music played very loudly outside at night, but when the windows were closed, it was quiet.
Many times, even while living in another hotel, we went to the Mare Nero restaurant, everything was very tasty, the food was just gorgeous, the cocktails are good! BUT, the lunches were not very complex...

So, finally, we visited this hotel! We lived in a chocolate room, on the second floor, the windows overlook a quiet street and the Royalta hotel. At first glance, the room really liked (prepared for the worst and smaller), as well as the hotel itself. But there were also disadvantages! The biggest unpleasant minus is the cleaning!! ! It seems to be removed, but how ? ! There is carpet in the room, so for 8 days of rest they NEVER vacuumed it (((can you imagine what it is? ! The bed and towels were changed with a delay of one day.

But with toilet paper there was a joke, when the thin roll ended, we asked for a new one to which we were told “we issue paper at the rate of 1 roll for three days, and it doesn’t matter how many people live”)))))) well, we didn’t get hung up on this, they turned everything into a joke and scored))))
The most important thing is the SEA! And there it was magical! Loved the beach, really Ming beach. About. Ukraine, clean, well-groomed, located in the Vorontsov park. There are sun loungers, and a park area, and a mini shop, and a massage, and a nurse... everything that was needed was))) To the sea all the time to go through the park, with an average step, with a child we reached 7-10 minutes, but you will not notice them, because head always to the right, then to the left)))
Restaurant. Well, the prices there of course....!!!! ! Just AH! I would say unreasonably high! We once ordered kebabs, fish. . . not thrilled. I won’t say that they were ready to lick their fingers, but my men didn’t even eat the meat, although there wasn’t much to eat there... Well, not really...
In general, I will say that I liked the hotel, the administration welcomes criticism, listens. Everything in the room worked properly, any problems that arose - they were immediately solved. I advise everyone!

It was great. Instead of paying 400 rubles in some barn, we decided to pay 650 rubles for a room in a cozy hotel. . . The sea at the beginning was, however, cold, but after a couple of days it immediately got warmer. . . when you close the window, everything subsides . . I also liked that you go straight to Vorontsovsky Park and find yourself in the jungle .

We were at the Mare Nero restaurant on June 18.2012. There were few people. Out of a dozen tables, only three were occupied. Ordered as expected: first, second, third. For a snack, we chose marinated mushrooms in brackets in brackets: mushrooms and chanterelles. We waited for cold snacks for a long time - about twenty minutes.

For a snack, we chose marinated mushrooms in brackets in brackets: mushrooms and chanterelles. We waited for cold snacks for a long time - about twenty minutes. They brought mushrooms - only canned champignons of a rather weathered appearance. Why, we ask, not chanterelles. Chanterelles, they answer, no (although there is a store around the corner - go buy a jar of mushrooms - it takes half a minute to do). Naturally, we politely declined the meal. Looking ahead, I’ll say that these mushrooms were added to our bill anyway (they said it was by mistake).
We are waiting for the first one. Another fifteen minutes, maybe. And here they are - both the first and the second! Of course, while eating the first second completely cooled down. Although, I repeat, there are few visitors in the restaurant. I can’t say that there is a “park” in the kitchen. It's just a mess in the establishment and they don't care about the customers. The administrator in our field of vision for all the time did not appear. If he was in the institution, he did not identify himself in any way (with a badge or uniform).
We have previously visited the Mare Nero restaurant several times. The quality of service used to be very good. Now, of course, there is no foot! If the owners are not interested in their restaurant, then I hope they do not need profit.

My husband and I love to come to this hotel either in the spring, when the park blooms, or in the golden autumn, when it is cold everywhere and the sun is still shining with might and main in Alupka! Everything suits me. We rested in Venice, Pearl, Gold (the same as Venice but quieter because on the top floor) I liked it very much in Pearl, but for active couples, the bed is scary! creaky))) The food is delicious, but it takes a very long time to cook.

Therefore, you need to order in advance, or do not rush anywhere at all. The rooms are not cleaned very often and this fact suits us perfectly. In my opinion, once every 3 days is normal. We did not need more frequent cleaning. The location is amazing - everything is close by. ATMs, market, shops and the main thing for us is Vorontsovsky Park. The most favorite place in Ukraine. We want to celebrate the new year in Alupka.
