Polissya hotel

The Polissya hotel (Ukrainian: Готель Полісся, romanized: Hotel Polissia; Russian: Гостиница Полесье, romanized: Gostinitsa Polesye) is one of the tallest buildings in the abandoned city of Pripyat,^[1] Ukraine (which was affected by the Chernobyl disaster). It was built in the mid-1970s to house delegations and guests visiting the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant.^[2] Currently, the hotel is half-ruined. As of 2021, a section of the hotel's roof has become noticeably unstable, sparking concerns of a potential collapse.^{[citation needed]}

The hotel continued to be occupied for weeks after the evacuation of Pripyat, to house nuclear engineers from across the USSR who came to observe the disaster and evaluate its consequences. The hotel was also used for crisis meetings.
