Sochi Builds Hotels

 

Rendition of the Hyatt Regency in Sochi

Today, I looked at hotels in central Sochi.  The new Hyatt Regency is being built in the vacant lot between the Park Hotel and the Primorskaya Hotel.  The site is great, with a park-like walkway about 50 meters between it and the bluff and then just below the boardwalk.  The Hyatt is quickly coming out of the ground and next door the Primorskaya is beginning renovations.

The adjacent Park Hotel has been the preferred spot for business travelers because of its quality and location. Just across the street from the Park sits the new Bounty Boutique Hotel.

The Primorskaya has a great location and a beautiful facade.  However, the aged Soviet-era rooms are currently very substandard.  It will be interesting to see the result.  Despite the room quality, Primorskaya has had one of the friendliest and most helpful of the hotel staffs in the city.  Of course, the Grand Rodina has the most professional staff in south Russia.

The Park has 447 rooms  and the Bounty Boutique Hotel 27 rooms.   When the 350 room Primorskaya has been remodelled and the Hyatt Regency (200 rooms) has been built, Sochi will have 4 quality hotels with over 1,000 rooms within 2 blocks in the very center of the city.  This is only a small part of the total, with thousands more rooms being constructed in the city center, at Adler (Olympic Village) and Krasnaya Polyana (alpine events).
