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.

View from the room was good. Water in bathroom was in good temperature. Staff at reception could not be worse . They shifted the breakfast timing without letting us know and due to which we could not take breakfast before our flight. They shifted it by 1 hour 30mins. Sad reception staff.

Horrible Hotel

On the day I checked in, there were stains on the toilet. After I told to clean, there were still stains. I asked him to clean it again waiting for an hour, there was no cleaning crew. Then went to the front desk, the staff said that they had notified this matter in the computer system, but the staff did not take any follow-up action. The room was very hot and no air conditioning. They came to repair after 10pm. The detector showed the temperature was 26 degrees. After the repairs, it dropped to 23 degrees. Also problems with the TV's sounder (sometimes no sound) and picture (mosaic pattern). They said that there was no staff available to repair at night. They would arrange for someone to help us repair the next morning, but they didn't show up until I checked out on the third day. There were two coffee machines in the breakfast room, but neither worked. According to the official website, breakfast was until 11am, but staff had packed up the food to the kitchen by 10am. During the stay, there was a fault fire alarm warning at 6am, and all guests were notified to leave the hotel immediately. But only one or two staff to assist which was not enough to deal with the fire. This hotel does not have the service quality of Holliday Inn brand. This hotel is not worth it. The above situations are obviously not a single incident, is the poor management of the hotel.

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.

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.
