The hotel offers a hotel shuttle service. All cars are new, technically serviceable, drivers are professionals, the presence of child seats is a prerequisite. The management claims that the transfer of class “luxury” will cost less than a local taxi.
“I recommend and a thousand more times I will advise you to choose this hotel. It is very beautiful and cozy. The restaurant’s menu is carefully thought out. Children are happy to choose dishes on the buffet, and in the evening they like to chat with the waiters about what else delicious to eat. There are a lot of activities for children. The beach is within walking distance. The pool is open to swimming at any time of the day or night. In the evening, even more interesting, because there is lighting. But you have to pay for comfort. If the family is ready to pay a tidy sum, then this is exactly the place where you need to relax with children” Marianna, Russia
Astarta Hotel
The 4-star hotel is located on the first coastline, at the very beginning of the city’s Promenade, next to the Genoese fortress. The price tag is high, but the rooms are not quite simple. There are several Standards in the fund, the rest are junior suites and suites. On the territory there are:

The beach is finely pebbled, urban. It is 50 metres away. The centre of Sudak is about a 20-minute walk away.
“The hotel is nice but expensive. The only plus is the sea a stone’s throw away. The kitchen is weak. The menu has many dishes that have long been considered a moveton for hotels with 4 stars. Parking is small, all cars are not included. Under the roof of the 6-storey building there is a cool grill bar with panoramic views. The service is not a fountain, but the view is really fascinating” Max, Russia

Tourist and health complex offers guests to settle on Mount Fireynaya, which offers a magnificent view of the sea and the city. Children under 5 years stay free of charge (without a separate bed, with meals). To the servants of the little guests:

In the evening, the hotel has a lot to do. Children are entertained by animators, adults play sports and swim in the pool. There is also a bar. Meals in the restaurant at the highest level” Konstantin, Russia
Star
The pension was built in 1982. In 2012 it was completely reconstructed. 275 roomshave been prepared for guests’ stay. Children under 5 years old stay free of charge with meals. On the territory there is a large swimming pool with a children’s department. But the main advantage is the presence of its own medical center. Treatment is carried out in three directions:

The main restaurant offers meals according to the menu-order scheme. A playground is available for children’s entertainment. In the building there is a playroom where you can leave the child under the supervision of a tutor. The beach is urban, the coating is small pebbles.
“The sanatorium is located in the city center. There is a convenient car interchange, as well as all types of public transport are available. The road to the sea passes through a cypress grove past cafes, entertainment venues and shops. Do not have illusions about the service of extra class. Everything is average, without fanaticism. Lovers of luxury are more likely to be disappointed by the appearance and design of the territory. Here everything remained in the Soviet way dull and gray, but very well-groomed. Meals, as in a regular dining room. On the floor there is an ironing board and a cooler. Prices are democratic» Svetlana, Russia
Hotel Villa Alexandria
Villas are good for their compactness, cozy patio. In the guest houses everything is at hand: a recreation area with sun loungers, an outdoor swimming pool with a children’s section, a barbecue area in the gazebo with a dining table, a café. A playground is available for children, cartoons are shown in the evenings. Babysitting services are available at an additional cost. Board games can be borrowed from the receptionist. The distance from “Alexandria” to the city beach is 800 meters. Free secure parking is available at the hotel.
“Quite comfortable hotel, but not for a holiday with a small child. Yes, there are separate services for kids, but their quality leaves much to be desired. I recommend not to bother with the inclusion of breakfast in the price. The café has an excellent menu, orders are brought quickly. You can do without the hassle with the design of food. The rooms are tiny. If the child is infant, then in a double room there will be nowhere to put the crib. You will have to take a triple, and it is more expensive. For the accommodation of a child under 5 years old, you do not need to pay, but you will need to pay for an extra bed for it. Think, decide, carefully weigh the pros and cons, choosing “Alexandria” Maria, Russia
Horizon (Gorizont)
Tourist and health complex “Horizont” was built in 1979. After reconstruction, its fund is 147 rooms.

“It is normal when a Soviet sanatorium tries to become a modern hotel. It’s getting better every year. It is located on a hill, away from the resort anthill. All the services necessary for a good holiday are provided. Even on a trip on excursions, a dry ration is issued. Many good traditions from the past have been preserved here. And with them remained true friends. Coming here for several years in a row. People like us» Alexey, Russia
Hotel Bastion

For owners – offset» Igor, Russia
Отель Романтик
The hotel is located in the main building, which receives guests all year round, and cottages that work only in high season.

Meals are provided on the menu. There’s a grocery store. The nearest beach is sand and pebble, not equipped and unequigged. There is no entertainment for children.

“Cozy, beautiful, but something is not finalized. Poor sound insulation, old plumbing, the sea is far away, there are interruptions with hot water. If the hostess solves these problems, then it will be quite possible to stop here and have a great rest. There is a café, a swimming pool, maybe eventually there will be transport to the sea. In the meantime, I do not advise you to go here with children” Tatiana, Russia
Undoubtedly, the best option for families with children is the “Soldaya Grand Hotel And Resort”. For those who are looking for cheaper conditions, the boarding house “Zvezdny” is quite suitable.
