"Оформили ранний заезд, заселились без проблем в районе 6 утра, бронировали два одноместных номера. В моем номере не работал телевизор, до конца продувания его так и не включили. По выезду попросили повторно оплатить проживание, хотя все было оплачено по заезде. Хорошо, что у меня был чек, подтверждающий оплату.. Из за таких нюансов впечатление подпорчено, но в целом - нормально ."

Top St Nicholas Cathedral Hotel Reviews

Uyut Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"It does look a little older in photos, but it is well maintained and very clean and exceeded my expectations. Decent gym. Lot’s of options for breakfast. It’s a well known hotel so most tours and taxis know where it’s at. Walking distance to many things I wanted to see in Almaty. 24/7 convenience store a few steps away from the hotel."

Holiday Inn ALMATY by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Fantastic Staff on front desk and in the restaurant. Made my stay very enjoyable. Thanks to all the Staff. Best Holiday Inn I ever visited during my 30 years of traveling."

Ibis Almaty Jetisu

10/10 Excellent

"All very good and very helpful staff"

Hotel Kazakhstan

8/10 Good

"Reception staff were brilliant. They gave us a fantastic 2 bedroom suite. The hotel itself is really beautiful. Some places rate it 4 star and some 5 but I would definitely say it’s more towards 5 star. Water in the shower was not very hot and water pressure was weak. Room was quite chilly at night. Breakfast was plentiful but not much we actually liked as a western family. Maybe aimed more towards Chinese people. These are all minor issues and I would definitely stay here again."
