5 new hotels in Minsk for 2019 European Games

Five new hotels will open in Minsk ahead of the 2019 European Games. Three of them will be commissioned already in late 2017 - early 2018, Yury Natychka, head of Hospitality Department at Minsk City Administration told reporters. In his words, the new hotels will add 1340 beds to the city's currently available accommmodation capacity.

One hotel is located in Zybickaja street, a highly popular hang-out and bars areas in central Minsk. The second is situated at the crossing of Kastrycnickaja Street and Lenin Street. The third lies next to the crossing of Praspiekt Pieramozcau (Victors' Avenue) and Minsk Beltway. Two more hotels will be opened in 2018 near Pieramoha (Pobeda) cinema and at the crossing of Vesninka Street and Praspiekt Pieramozcau, Minsk Naviny, a news agency close to the capital city's administration reports.

As of today, there are 50 hotels, 7 hostels and 12 other hospitality objects available in Minsk. They can accommodate over 11 000 guests but Minsk definitely needs more ahead of the large-scale sports and political event.
