Yesterday

Westa is a uniquely amazing place, because it is the dream-child of it's original owner. The owner died, ~4 years ago. But the staff really keeps his dream alive. I noticed that many staff members have been there for many years, and they have a great deal of experience, with taking care of clients . Everyone feels like a VIP. The food was very, very good. And the cocktails at the bar are unbelievably inexpensive. I paid only 3$ for a rum & coke. We enjoyed laying out in the sun, and we used all of their facilities. Their doctors are great, and there is a pharmacy located across the street so if you forget your medicine, they can prescribe it for you and you can buy it, locally. It's only 45 minutes drive time from Minsk. Highly recommend! And will definitely be going again and again.

Alfa Radon

Danilavicki Rural Council • Sanatorium

Yesterday

Extremely great place to enjoy a healthy getaway. Everything is well organized. The food is a good quality. Friendly staff, and friendly guests. Great location for sunbathing because the outdoor pool is oriented well for summertime. They are doing construction because they are expanding. But we didn't let new construction interfere with our good time. Beds are super comfortable, and the rooms are very modern. The doctors we saw, prescribed valuable services and we enjoyed partaking in those services. Price, per night, including medical services, is less expensive than most five star hotels. Will definitely return again.

Belarusbank ATM machine is very close by. Lots of cool Lil snack shops offering good services. Very clean bus station, and very convenient.

Čyhunačny vakzał

Grodna • Railway station

May 2026

Good-Clean-Modern Facility. It is fun to ride the rails to Grodno. Train 🚂 service from Minsk costs only ~10$ for a 4 hour ride. Grodno is a favorite destination.

Litviny

Minsk • Cafe

April 2026

This is the best Litviny i have been to. Consistently good. Friendly service. Best Borscht in Belarus. Don't forget to order the meat/potato pie separately. And try the rasperry/ginger tea, or sea buckthorne tea.

Contrast

Minsk • Cafe

October 2025

I love eating at contrast. They always bring you water so you don't have to ask for it, or pay extra for it. The wait staff is very attentive. And they have the best Boston seafood soup in the whole country. In summer, they have the best Xoldnik (cold Borscht) because they use real baby potatoes, compared to other restaurants that are chopping up large potatoes. They also serve a very good cheeseburger. And their location is excellent. Sitting in their patio full of trees in summer is a real delight. This restaurant excels at what they do.

Alexander's School of Stars Kiss

Minsk • Music school

August 2025

This is the most fun place to come and record music. Alexander Kiss is extremely professional at recording, arranging, mixing, & mastering. Come & play with the cats & make new friends. Prices are reasonably competitive & you will love your finished product. I've recorded many songs here, and I haven't had a single bad experience. It's All good. 😊

Monastyrski

Minsk • Hotel

August 2025

Everyone loves visiting St. Katherines Monastery for its beautiful landscapes & 4 churches, each in a uniquely different architecture. Here you will find the tastiest Kvas/Квас (root beer with honey) in all of Belarus. It is served nice & cold. My favorite is their darkest color. U can do a taste test & decide. I also enjoy buying fresh dairy products here. From the outdoor vendor in the wagon, you will find milk/kefir/eggs/cheeses are farm fresh, daily. Their "monastery/монастырские" cheese, cannot be beat. It is the real-deal. You can also buy a wide variety of products in their indoor-store location. Here's an idea: rather than take a taxi to your local supermarket, come here instead, because you'll be glad you did. And it doesn't hurt to pray once in awhile too. Cheers 🥂

Charlie

Minsk • Bar, pub

July 2025

Charlie has one of the best Restaurant atmospheres in the city, and their cocktail bar service is exceptional. No watered down drinks here. 😃 Professional wait staff.
