Carols and nativity plays nearby
Nativity plays, carollers and concerts on the stage in the center of the resort, a few minutes from the door. The line-up is on Bukovel’s website.
Christmas Eve round the corner
There is no kitchen in the apartments, but dozens of restaurants are a few minutes’ walk away. Book a table for Christmas Eve in advance.
Ski room and dryer
Skis and boards on the rack, boots in the dryer. Everything is dry by morning, and the lift is 20 meters away.
Parking 50 m away
Park the car on arrival and forget it until you leave: the slope, the carols, restaurants and the banya are on foot.

Holidays
Quiet days on the mountain
Every sector of the resort is linked, and there are fewer people over the holidays. In the evening the floodlit 1C, 1E, 2A and 2C round the corner from the hotel keep running after the mountain closes.
Staying longer? After the holidays Bukovel is calmer still, and the snow holds.
