Отдых в Ялте в отеле "Времена года" Rest in Yalta in the hotel "Vremena Goda"

For the last 4 years, every autumn I have been going to Yalta for 4-5 days on vacation. Sometimes I combine this rest with training in my profession. On 3 trips, I stayed at the Yalta-Intourist hotel, and resting there is a separate story, but I especially liked my last trip, since I stayed at the Vremena Goda hotel. This is a city hotel with a small territory, not far from the central city market, and a 10-minute walk from the Yalta embankment. But I liked the spa in this hotel, with a beautiful indoor heated pool and a hydromassage area in the corner of the pool. As well as various types of procedures: Finnish sauna, infrared bath, showers and massages. Near the pool there is a summer solarium with sun loungers, a winter garden and a juice bar.
My room was not too big, but very comfortable. Air conditioning, refrigerator with minibar, telephone, TV - these are mandatory attributes of a 3-star hotel, but the bathroom had 4 snow-white huge bathing towels, snow-white terry bathrobes and huge beach towels, as well as all branded toiletries, plus in The price includes access to the swimming pool and saunas. For that, you can already give 4 stars. I am attaching some photos of this hotel to the review.
It should also be noted the excellent food in the hotel restaurant. I had full board. It should be noted that for breakfast and dinner there was a good buffet, and lunch was a custom menu. For breakfast there were always delicious yoghurts, cold cuts, for a hot dish: sausages, scrambled eggs, boiled or fried fish, boiled potatoes and rice. There are juices and milk in jugs, tea and coffee in thermoses. At lunch, waiters served all the dishes that could be ordered from the menu. But fruits and juices could be taken by ourselves on the table in the middle of the hall. Alcoholic drinks can be taken from the bar for a fee.

But the most important thing that delighted me about this hotel is that at that time it hosted an exhibition of paintings by Yalta artists. These paintings were hung in the restaurant hall on all the walls, and when we ate there, it seemed that we were not in a restaurant, but in an art gallery. Most of the paintings belonged to the Yalta artist Anna Oleinik. The paintings depict all kinds of flower arrangements. Most of them I really liked. Since there was no ban on photography, I took several pictures of these paintings. I suggest you admire these masterpieces of painting. Nature itself in Yalta is conducive to the creation of such paintings.
During my vacation, I went on excursions to the Massadra Palace, and on excursions with wine tasting in the cellars of Massandra. The palace in Massandra will be more modest than Livadia or Vorontsovsky, but it also has something to see. Look at my pictures and you will agree with these too.
I have already been on excursions to the Massandra tasting complex more than once, but I really like Massandra wines, and when I am in Yalta, I definitely take an excursion with wine tasting there. After tasting, I always buy wines there. My favorite wines include sweet dessert wines "The Seventh Heaven of Prince Golitsyn", "Black Doctor", "White Red Stone Muscat". And although their prices have grown exorbitantly in recent years, but for yourself, your beloved, money is not a pity. I have traveled extensively in Europe and have tasted French, Spanish and Italian wines there. But there are no such sweet dessert wines as we have in the Crimea. Therefore, Massandra dessert wines are the best for me. And let the skeptics say otherwise, I will not change my opinion. And it’s also good to eat dessert wine with figs that grow in the vicinity of Yalta. Large and sweet figs in September are sold on almost every corner of the city.
I love walking along the Yalta embankment, and the autumn months are the most comfortable time for this. The promenade from the port to the monument to Chekhov with his Lady and the dog always evokes warm memories of my school years when we studied Russian literature as our own.

And I also like to take the cable car up the hill and admire the port and Yalta from above, from a bird's eye view. There is a handsome cruise liner in the port, and someone also admires Yalta from its side. At such moments, you understand that we also have something to show to tourists from other countries, we just need to better develop tourism in our country. Somehow, at the end of October, I was in Yalta, and at that time the flower exhibition "Chrysanthemum Parade" was held in the Nikitsky Botanical Garden. From the beauty of the flowers at this exhibition, I was simply indescribably delighted. Now I show these photos to all my friends and recommend them to go to Yalta during the Chrysanthemum Parade. After all, in other countries, during such exhibitions, they can attract a huge number of tourists, and why shouldn't our travel agencies use their experience? Here is a brief summary of everything I wanted to write about my vacation in Yalta.
