What's really going on in Bukovel, where Zelensky vacationed - real reviews of tourists

In the first month of winter 2022 Vladimir Zelensky managed to visit Bukovel. President lived in the most expensive 5-star hotel of the resort, next door to oligarch Igor Kolomoysky. The local holiday is called the premium one. They say that the reason is not the high quality of service, but the unreasonably high prices.

 

We've checked the tourists' reviews on Google Maps and will tell you what's really going on at the resort, where a day of rest is barely enough for $100.Prices are inflated and do not meet the conditions of rest

Bukovel is called a resort for businessmen, politicians and stars. Because for a few days of rest some tourists spend a month's salary.Traveler Igor Grushko wrote that he spent 30 thousand hryvnias for three days of stay.Tourist Alina Malinina noted that the prices in Bukovel for accommodation and food are similar to those in the Alps. But despite the similar price, the foreign resort is more beautiful.

 

Prices for accommodation and food can be compared to a holiday in the Austrian Alps, but there are much more beautiful and the snow is blue, - she wrote.Prices are inflated not only for food and lodging, but also for cabs. Tourist Elena Melnik called the prices voiced by local cab drivers cosmic.

 

Cab? The prices are cosmos (I think, that in Europe it is cheaper). We didn't pay anything lower than 150 (hryvnia - Ed.) for 1.5 kilometers. In front of the parking lot at the mountain trails cab drivers in general have dropped 400 hryvnia, - she wrote.There will be difficulties with the rent of equipment

Extreme tourists come to Bukovel for winter sports. Besides booking a hotel for them is a must do - rent equipment for skiing. Unfortunately, local rental agencies are not willing to provide quality service.

 

Travelers share negative reviews on Google Maps to warn winter sports enthusiasts about possible inconveniences during equipment rentals.She spoke about the atmosphere of a fairy tale at the resort and called it "a successful place for active recreation. Given the comments of holidaymakers, Bukovel seems like a fairy tale only before the visit.

 

Traveler Alina Malinina also admitted that there were some inconveniences with the rent of equipment. Tourists can't take all necessary things at once in one place.

 

You can come to one place and rent skis, board, and equipment without any problems - there's no such option," she wrote.Huge queues will spoil the impression of rest

Crowds of tourists are the next "surprise" that awaits in Bukovel.If you are used to the minimal number of people at the resort and the lack of lines, buy some valerian. Because here and now you will not ski, and you will not get an order in the institution. You will have to spend your time every day waiting.Tourist Elena Melnik confessed that Bukovel is beautiful and the nature is amazing. Despite the advantages, she told us about large queues and shared a tiphack about how to get around them. But not everyone will take advantage of it.

Most popular establishments have queues. If you want without queues - go to institutions with price tags, where the salad is 300-400 hryvnia. People with a salary of 6,500 hryvnias can't afford to come here," she wrote.

It does not matter what transport you come to the resort: your own car or a public bus. "Surprises" and traffic jams on the roads of the resort are waiting for everyone.The most expensive resort in Ukraine has only one medical center. But even there, medics cannot help tourists who are injured while snowboarding or skiing. Victims need to get to the nearest medical facilities in neighboring cities on their own to save their lives.Tourist Alina Malinina told about the accident in the reviews of Google Maps.
