Default Any AA members in Kiev?

I am always keen on meeting up with members, and if anyone has travel experience in Kiev, I would be grateful for a good centralized hotel recommendation.

Thanks, I can't wait to start my trip!

Bob

Fairmont is a good alternative if the Premier Palace proves a bit over the top..

I spent 10 minutes researching where Riga was located and then you edited the city in your post to "Kiev". What gives Robert? Your new city
Isn't very close to the first city.

I'm going to Bucharest, Kiev, Riga, and then London on my way home starting in late April. It should be an adventure.

Thanks! It looks very nice. I am not looking to spend too much, but want to be located close to the city center. I have never been there. I want to go to the Patriotic War Museum, Babi Yar, all the museums I can find, and perhaps even go to Chernobyl for a day (yeah, I'm wierd like that!).
