Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to HEAT, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room on a higher floor (above the 5th floor) for a quieter stay, as the lower floors may receive more street noise from the nearby busy streets. Additionally, rooms on the west side of the hotel may receive less direct sunlight and heat from the afternoon sun.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid rooms on the lower floors, especially those near the service entrance or lift, as they may experience more noise from staff and elevator activity.
Best views
Rooms on the east side of the hotel (facing the city) may offer a view of the surrounding cityscape, while those on the west side may have a view of the nearby buildings.
Quietest floors
Floors 6-10 are likely to be the quietest, as they are above the main street level and away from the lift and service entrance.
🔊 Noise notes
Street noise from nearby busy streets, as well as noise from the hotel's bar and nearby establishments, may be a consideration for guests.
Insider tips
Request a room with a kettle for an extra 100 UAH per day. Additionally, consider requesting a room with a fridge, as it's not a standard amenity for all rooms.
- Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
- Add a note in your booking comments field
- Ask at check-in — front desk staff can often accommodate if a room is available
