Very nice Hotel in green but centrally located neighbordhood of Almaty.
We arrived with the night train and the receptionist was generous enough to let us check-in and go to our rooms at 8.30am! Very kind! The rooms were large, the bath large, modern, and spotless.
The breakfast buffet was included in the price and offered a broad selection for all tastes, European or Central Asian. Since there are so many good restaurants in hte neighborhood, we never ate dinner at the hotel, but only had drinks at the well-appointed bar.
Another plus was the fitness area: a cardio room as well as a weight room, a very clean pool, sauna and steam room. Much appreciated: the sauna etc. is gender segregated.
All in all, a great hotel and a steal at current prices. We'll go there again.
