3 months before the New Year, the question arose where you can, at an adequate price to celebrate the New Year, relax and spend the holidays. After reading the reviews of the tour of truth, the choice fell on the Pearl of the Carpathians "Slavske". Booked a standard double room, 7 nights accommodation, breakfast and dinner, New Year's banquet with a show program UAH 8.500 (sold only in packages,
100% prepayment, you can not refuse food, banquet! ) When booking, we warned that we are going to rest with a small dog, to which the answer was given. We will be glad to see you with a dog in the Pearl of the Carpathians.

And now it's time to celebrate, there is no snow and it is not expected, temperature + 15, green grass, but we are not skiers, so we are not upset and leave positively on the route Kyiv - 2 days Lviv - 7 days in Slavske + visiting Mukachevo and Uzhgorod - Lviv - Kyiv.

Excellent rest for 2 days in Lviv (everything is beautifully decorated, a wonderful fair with delicious mulled wine and snacks and of course rare restaurants, each with its own unique interior and variety of dishes),
We go to Slavske, the route is just great, but at the exit from it, 23 km to the hotel some horror, asphalt if you can call it that, all littered with huge pits, on this section we have repeatedly fought the bottom, the bridge, so you can imagine This is a Jeep Grand Cherokee.
(The way from the road to the hotel for such a short distance, takes 1-1.5 hours). Dear hotel owners, well, they would have dropped out, at least to fill the road with rubble ...

And here he is the pearl of the Carpathians!
The first impression, when getting out of the car, immediately slipped on the icy asphalt and the Christmas tree refrained from falling, the parking lot in the ice is not sprinkled and not cleaned to get to the path leading to the hotel, you need to make funny movements with your hands and feet to fall.
Next, on the territory of two buildings, where the reception is not clear, there are no signs, wandering with suitcases until the administrator looked out and waved.
Registration, and we can not have dogs, you warned? (All the courtesies that were before payment when booking the hotel disappeared somewhere). We found the name of the person who booked our room, after which the administrator fell silent (as it turned out, permission was given by the general manager), and with a dissatisfied face on his face, the administrator. gave us the key with the words, see that she did not bite anything in the room, when I leave I will check!
Honestly, at such a meeting, I immediately wanted to get in the car and return to the hospitable Lviv. What would you understand, a dog breed Yorkshire Terrier 2 kg. (Photo attached),
I can't even imagine that she can gnaw in this poor room, what's next.

We got a room on 2 m or 3 m floor (I do not remember exactly),
tiny room with a narrow balcony.

The room itself: the door and the lock are very shaky, reminiscent of a toilet handle, it is good enough to pull and enter, take what you want, this is despite the fact that the entrance to the building is not unguarded, come who wants,
+ in addition, in the evening the stairs were not lit, scary.
There was not enough space in the room, above the bed there is a shelf that you keep banging on, a prehistoric TV 20 * 20 cm high under the ceiling (which is very upsetting, it is simply impossible to watch the New Year's program). The most unpleasant thing is the old, gray color, with holes in the bed linen and the room is very poorly heated, really cold!
Of the pros, the room is clean, there is a small. refrigerator, view from the balcony.

Hotel area:
Pros: very well-groomed, everywhere neatly trimmed lawn with grass (it occupies almost the entire hotel area), there are two gazebos made of wood with barbecues, a small zoo.
Cons: Not a single bar, huts, no shops where you can sit and enjoy nature.
To drink at least mulled wine in nature, you need to go to the administrative building to the restaurant.

Administrative building: fireplace (lit only in the evening), it is almost impossible to approach, there is a huge billiard table, around which children are constantly running from nothing to do, near the fireplace is a row of chairs overlooking the pool table, again sit near fireplace with a glass of wine, just relax is not real ...On the same floor restaurant, nothing special in the interior, no color, white tablecloths, chairs, everything is very tasteless.
As for the restaurant itself, the restaurant staff, the menu, all in the top five, very attentive waitresses, delicious food, large portions. I would even say that the restaurant and its staff only keep the hotel a pearl of the Carpathians. The only remark is that there is a lack of some zest, traditional Ukrainian cuisine.

New Year's Eve and rest in the pearl of the Carpathian Slavs:

On December 31, dinner was canceled, the restaurant was open only until 17.00, which was not warned, in fact, there is nowhere else to go to eat (in a poor village with a broken road) and all who managed to eat until 17.00 but for their money (breakfast and dinner is supposed to be included in the package), and who did not know, stayed hungry, or went for a sausage in the nearest store. I didn't want to argue and find out something, it's a holiday after all. With breakfast on the 1st, they did the same thing not nicely, as if fed, and in the evening for dinner they brought the bill, it turns out it was not included in the price, but where it is indicated, remained in question ...

The banquet and show program started at 22.00, it was just HORROR! The hotel decided to spend all this in the conference hall, it is not decorated, you can imagine the New Year's atmosphere,
Show: Snow Maiden under 45, looks like a "dream" (Marena Goddess Navi, dark night, nightmares, ghosts, diseases (sea), death), pale all, tortured woman, in a horrible costume and with an unspeakable unpleasant voice. Santa Claus, in a costume made of Chinese Christmas hats, whether drunk or bad, a man with a complete lack of humor and organization. I just don't want to describe everything that happens, jokes, organization and the rest of the program, to be honest, it's a shame that you can celebrate the new year… But the banquet, again 5 points, the restaurant's credit, everything is delicious and beautiful.

The hotel sold a package for 7 m days, for the New Year holidays, but did not care about a gram of rest, entertainment, how people will live these 7 days! As I wrote, there was no snow, and most people came to ski, respectively, became hostages of the hotel, because there is no infrastructure in the district at all!
Well mountains 1-2 days just to be similar and that's it. The weather was great, sunny, it is not difficult to put sunbeds (they are in the hotel), put a rack with hot drinks (mulled wine, hot beer), snacks, barbecue, we would have fun. And so all the circles, couples by numbers, drank and all… The main thing that struck me,
After removing UAH 1.000 from the person for NG dinner and the "program", the hotel administration did not even manage to put even a spruce twig in the room, despite the fact that I bought a 1.5-meter Christmas tree in Slavske for only UAH 20! Apparently it is very expensive for the hotel.
Arranged a holiday as they could, but could not stand the boredom and poverty, left 3 days earlier… Sorry for the time spent.
