Nikolayevka Packages (Flight + Hotel)

Rooms smelled sour, like backed up sewage. Breakfast quality is not as nice as it was previously. Location is nice. Spa limits access to massages and related activities are limited.

Great stay in the city centre of Almaty. Great breakfast, lots of options.

Fair warning this is a 3 star hotel not a 5 star as advertised. For the money there are much better options in the city. Pros: breakfast was excellent. Atrium looks impressive. Ambience for the restaurant in the front of the property (yurt in a nicely landscaped lawn area). Cons: hotel is tired looking and in serious need of renovations. Atrium smells of diesel fumes i suspect being used to power the glass elevators. Rooms have some tech upgrades (electric curtains, lots of light button options, tv and google alexa voice cube) however dismal air-conditioning. The coolest I could get my room was 24 degrees. They did switch my room but same story in the second room despite a visit from maintenence to check the ac. 'It's very small' as per him. Do not stay here if you prefer sleeping in a cool environment.

Everything is perfect but the only thing the breakfast area is too small for that many guests and a little bit pricey
