This is a lovely hotel, in the heart of Almaty. We enjoyed our time here, all except for the two lengthy power outages that seem to be a common affliction here. All-in-all a pleasant stay with comfortable beds, a decent shower, and a wonderful breakfast.

Suit is good but very limited storage space if you stay in the hotel for a few days/weeks. Couple cabinets could improve this situation.

Helpful staff and a good location. Have stayed twice, and both rooms had at least partial mountain views. Breakfast was great, with lots of options. Ceramic, rather than plastic, mugs in the room could have improved the experience.

Never happy with a Hotel that allows smoking on their property. And then they only offer you a smoking room since all their non smoking rooms were booked.

Avoid breakfast

Overall great experience, except for breakfast, we never touched it after finding a huge fly in the eggs. Some towels had hair on them. Bed was comfortable. No fridge was another downside

The hotel is in a very convenient location with beautiful views to the mountains, close to the Metro and restaurants, and within a 25 minute walk to museums, parks and other landmarks. Staff were friendly and helpful, breakfasts delicious and the room very comfortable. Unfortunately, the rooms do not have a refrigerator and the hotel has a strict policy of charging you for an extra day (at a higher rate than paid online) for a late checkout of 5 hours, even after staying at the hotel for an entire week. The hotel has a comfortable lobby with a bar and snacks and access to fast WIFI. I will stay here again when I visit Almaty next year.
