"The bed is super comfy and the bathroom is quite wide. Excellent service.
Though refrigerator and shower head should be cleaned!
Overall great hotel worth staying "
"I really enjoyed my stay here. The place was clean, safe, and quiet. A lovely lady named Aruzhan kindly helped us get an early breakfast. The food was excellent, and the service was great. The air conditioning worked perfectly too! I highly recommend this place"
"We weren't very pleased with this place. For starters, we found out upon arrival that we had to pay 6000 tenge for two people/two nights. Below is the only mention of potential fees:
"Hotel fees
The price DOES NOT include any applicable hotel service fees, charges for optional incidentals (such as minibar snacks or telephone calls), or regulatory surcharges. The hotel will assess these fees, charges and surcharges upon check-out."
The staff claimed this was a newly imposed tax from Feb 2023....
"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."

Rahat Palace Hotel
10/10 Excellent
"nice stay in Rahat Palace !
Staff was helpful. Birthday cake was put in the room upon check in.
Thanks"
"Staff is amazing. Location is very convenient in the city center. Great breakfast with lots of tasty choices (except for the coffee, which is quite bad).
Gym is very reasonable and adequate (open 24/7).
Only problem is inconsistent stream of hot water - the hot water in the shower is sometimes pulsating, making the showering experience unpleasant (this issue wasn't present at all times, but rather at certain days and times. However, it happened several times during my stay). "
"We stayed on the ground floor away from the road and it was really quiet. The breakfast was ok for a small hotel. We found the hotel comfortable.We did have a safe problem, which wasn’t fixed, but we did only stay 2 nights."
"We loved our stay here. The staff went above and beyond to ensure our comfort and assist us. The breakfast was the most extensive buffet we have ever seen; we were shocked that there had been negative reviews. The location is great. There is a nice park across the street and it’s a short walk to many great sights. "
