Fodor's Expert Review Radisson Rosa Khutor
35 Olimpyiskaya ul., Sochi, Krasnodarskiy, Russia
This ski chalet-inspired property, not to be confused with the budget Park Inn, also a Radisson property, opened in early 2013 at the Rosa Khutor ski resort in Krasnaya Polyana. Contemporary and stylish suites were outfitted by Swedish designer Christian Lundwall. The hotel's restaurant, Black Bar and Grill ($$$$), offers an extensive wine collection, with international cuisine and Russian classics like borscht, or beet soup. A large buffet breakfast is served at the hotel's other restaurant, Seasons.
PROS
- Hotel is a three-minute walk to the ski slopes
CONS
- rooms fill up fast, so book far in advance
