Very good location in the center of Almaty. Great look and atmosphere. Staff is polite and helpful. Breakfast and restaurant is very good. Rooms are wide and comfortable. Wi-Fi internet is available, but slow. Great free SPA with pools, jacuzzi, baths etc!!!! Strongly recommend!

Almaty is the kind of place that can get away with it - demand exceeds demand so prices can be high whilst quality can be poor - thi place I proof of that
Compared to modern international hotels this looked tired - the lighting in the lobby was poor - the service at breakfast woeful and the lift possibly the...

The hotel has a nice gym and...

Restaurant: Spacious, clean.

Stayed one night in March. Hotel, by international standards is average, but by Kaz standards above average. It has been completely refurbished and has a new feel to it.

This is a great hotel. The rooms are large (larger than other comparable hotels in the city I am told). The breakfast buffet is lovely-with just about anything you could want. As was mentioned earlier, the location is excellent and you can walk to grocery stores, restaurants and shopping.
When I was staying there, there were some problems with heat...
