Association of Internet Service Providers

Kiev is the city where the new and the ancient create excellent chances for historical and aesthetical exploration. However, before you visit this incredible city, take some time to decide on at least two things: accommodation and transport.

Let us discuss choosing a flat. Start by considering what you can afford and personal preference, you could either choose to rent a room in a Kiev hotel, or rent an apartment. Count the stars on Kiev hotels to evaluate the comfort you require and the price you can afford.

Kiev has a number of luxury hotels. There are virtually dozens of less chic Kiev accommodation opportunities. A luxury accommodation is going to cost you around $400-850 per night, four star hotels will cost $150-$500, three stars will cost you about $70-300, 2 stars will cost from $50 to 120 and small and one star hotels charge around 25-100 per 24 hours.

There exist also several hostels in Kiev for youth. In an ordinary hostel you can find unpretentious but fresh accommodation and several sofas or beds in one and the same room.

The Internet Services Providers’ Association (ISPA UK) is the UK’s Trade Association for providers of Internet services.

ISPA UK was established in 1995 and promotes competition, self-regulation and the development of the Internet industry.

As a trade association, membership is voluntary but the companies who choose to become members of ISPA agree to abide by the ISPA UK Code. ISPA members’ allegiance to the Code means that consumers can view the ISPA UK logo as a mark of commitment to good business practice.

ISPA’s main activity is in making representations on behalf of the industry to Government bodies, such as the Home Office, the Department of Trade and Industry and Ofcom. Government and political representatives often approach ISPA for its knowledge and expertise.

Over 170 companies in the UK benefit from membership of ISPA.

Policies are agreed by the ISPA Council, a body of up to ten people selected from and representing the various interests of the membership. The Council is served by a secretariat.

ISPA UK was instrumental in establishing EuroISPA, a European federation of Internet Services Providers’ Associations. EuroISPA voices ISPs concerns to politicians and officials at European Union level and influences EU Internet policies.
