The hotel is good. Some floors are currently undergoing renovation. Of the advantages - a good breakfast, a large assortment, everything is fresh; the hotel has many floors, we lived on 23m-the view of the city and the mountains is awesome. One of the disadvantages is that the elevators take a long time to go up and down when the hotel is densely populated, this is a problem; some rooms are slightly "tired", but everything is clean and cozy. The location is great, it is convenient to move around the city. There is a lift near Koktebel, a large shopping center (Dostyk Plaza) is 20 minutes away at a relaxed pace. There are several good restaurants nearby, two Starjacks in the range of 5 minutes.
The conclusion is that we had a great time here.

The Kazakhstan Hotel is a very beautiful building, it is an architectural monument of 1974, 26-storey. Convenient location in the center of Almaty, near the hotel there is a funicular to Kok-Tobe mountain, parks, central square. Everything is within walking distance.
The rooms are cozy, beautiful views from the Windows. Lots of elevators, beautiful inside and out.
Breakfasts at the hotel are distinguished by a variety of dishes for every taste.
The hotel staff is very polite and professionally trained. The room is cleaned daily.
I recommend this hotel to everyone, you will not regret it.

I like the atmosphere in this hotel! Usually I am either in the lobby or in the Thai spa center))
In the lobby there is delicious coffee, pastries, comfortable armchairs and sofas, Wi-Fi, you can work online or just drink coffee in a relaxed atmosphere. The restaurant is on top 24/7. There is a white grand piano in the corner, it is often played professionally by tourists
I don't know, of course there are cooler hotels, but I love this one for a special vibe.

The place is iconic.
It is a Soviet building, but the interior is being updated. Not big comfortable rooms with good repair. Buffet breakfasts. Excellent cuisine. Everything is delicious and standard.
4 I put an Abai hall for the candy. In which he spent 3 long days. It stands out sharply from the entire hotel. Non-working sockets (to our remark, the technician said that it was necessary to disassemble the table. In 3 days, he did not get to the outlets. It's good that they gave you an extension cord) Constant noise from the refrigerator (empty).
There are many places to go for dinner around the hotel. Everything is within walking distance.
By the way, the currency exchanger is right there in the hotel (next to the reception). The exchange rate is the same as in the nearby exchangers.
If you go on vacation, I would put all 5 stars.

The landmark hotel was built in 1974. The first skyscraper in Almaty. It is considered one of the earthquake-resistant buildings in the city. The hotel is quite comfortable, the staff is polite, there is a lobby bar, a restaurant on the 26th floor. There are a lot of places and interesting locations nearby.
The hotel has a spa on the 16th floor. Not to be confused with a spa complex with a thermal zone. In this case, you will get half an hour to warm up in the sauna. Hammam (small) for an additional fee.additional payment. Massage, of course, is also at a separate price list.
Of the minuses, the repair is of course done with many minor flaws and requires updating. Breakfasts are between 3+ and 4. For 6 days in a row, the only variety was soups that changed every day. All other dishes and snacks are the same.

Nice hotel. The ideal location in the city center. Although I stayed in the most ordinary budget room, it was quite spacious and the view from the window opened onto the mountains. The staff is polite. The breakfast is delicious. One of the disadvantages is a slightly shabby environment, as well as overloaded elevators (sometimes it takes 10 minutes to go down or up).

The building of the original architecture, despite the Soviet past, fits perfectly into modern Almaty. A luxurious lobby, lots of elevators, rooms without frills, but with high ceilings and airy. The hotel offers wonderful views. From the restaurant there is an overview of the surroundings, around the city, on the other hand-the foothills.

The bathroom is well equipped, although for complete comfort you can add a hygienic shower. But that's if you really find fault.
The staff is friendly, the breakfast is delicious and very varied. Of the minuses, perhaps, only one - they did not live there for long - it was too expensive for us! But we had fun! Thank you from the bottom of my heart!

In general, it is very, very good. The best thing here is with room cleaning and meals. Breakfast, restaurant - very good. The building itself and the views from 20+ floors - it definitely makes sense to get this experience.
The location in the city is also good.
There is no gym, which is sad. I found the nearest place a couple of blocks from the hotel.
During my stay, repairs were underway on some floors, oddly enough, they did not interfere.
In general, the lack of a gym or a similar place to charge was the only downside for me personally. Otherwise, it's great

Despite the fact that I had to move from room to room twice because of the screaming music in the bars, the impression of the hotel remained positive. The Kazakhstan Hotel is a beautiful building, beautiful halls, good breakfast, friendly staff, high level of service, good restaurants. And most importantly, the perfect location. The hotel is located in the very center of Almaty, from here you can walk to any attraction. Very close to the Koktebe cable car (without children or if you do not like attractions, you should not climb, it is expensive and it is a loss of money, it is better to go to Medeo. it's much more beautiful there). In general, this is a cult place where the "Soviet chic" has remained, there are very few such places on the planet now, even in Havana and Belgrade you can find such hotels. Therefore, it is worth choosing "Kazakhstan" for the sake of emotions, to touch the history.
The only thing is, don't repeat my mistakes, give up rooms on the 25th floor, because karaoke screams all night, so that the walls shake, and rooms with access to the pool bar, it's even louder than karaoke.
But if I go to Almaty again, I will never choose another hotel, as it is now customary to say "for a good vibe". And yes, I forgot the main thing - the views from the windows are simply extraordinary! There is an opportunity to see the whole city from a height, the views of the mountains are also very beautiful.

Great location. There are restoryns, cafes, shops all around. There is a funicular nearby. Gorgeous view from the windows from the upper floors.
I booked a standard room - old, but clean. Good price.
The rooms are spacious.
Room cleaning every day.
Water in the room every day is a liter bottle. Tea, kettle, etc. There is a refrigerator, but there is no minibar. The double bed is comfortable with a normal double mattress.
There is no shoe spoon. The trash can is the only one in the bathroom.
The ironing board is disgusting - it needs to be changed.
In general, I am satisfied. I'll come again.

The hotel is very beautiful from the outside and in the lobby of the 1st floor. But the room stock is very tired. As well as bed linen with bathrobes and towels. I would put 1 piece of furniture and 3 underwear. Hot water appears after 10 minutes of spilling... There are no tubes of creams or shower gels. But there are kits for brushing teeth
and a gel with shampoo 2 in 1. But with all this!
Beds and mattresses, pillows, blankets are very comfortable!
The breakfasts are varied. Fruits and vegetables are delicious. There is honey in sets, various pastries, sour milk, etc. In general, the food is 5.
The reception is quite qualified.
On the 1st floor there is a liquor store and 24x7
Therefore, there are more pros than cons.
If you are not pretentious about plumbing and the quality of the room stock, but just spends the night in a hotel, then I recommend it.

I stayed here in January. In general, everything is fine. The entrance area was beautifully decorated in a New Year's way, it's even a pity that it was dismantled. The room is not big, but it fits, everything is basic, except for a shoe spoon. There were 4 pillows - two are too hard, and two are soft, as I like. From lack of income - poor noise insulation from the street, cars and horns can be heard, although he lived on the 22nd floor. One of the advantages is the location, everything can be quickly reached by taxi, and the Medeo is 25 minutes away. There are many restaurants and cafes nearby, but the prices will be slightly overpriced. In the hotel itself, on the 26th floor, there is a panoramic restaurant, with "a la haute cuisine", and the same prices, visitors are required to deposit but for guests without a deposit (keep in mind, they demanded from me and had to remind them). Everything is fine with cleaning - every day everything is as per the checklist)), we changed and reported. Instead of a lobby bar on the ground floor, there is a cafe-tea room, as well as two restaurants (one meat) and a beer bar, but there is no passage inside the hotel, only across the street.

We were in July 2024, we lived on the 17th floor. This floor has been renovated, renovated in pleasant sand colors. The view was on the Kok Tobe! Perfect.
But for some reason, the problems with the drain barrel were solved promptly after the call.
The 16th floor is being renovated, during the day, if in the room, then the noise, of course, interferes. And how else to do the renovation, the guys try to work until 17 o'clock.
Breakfast in the restaurant is varied.
But, there are also many places nearby with more interesting cuisine for the same money.

I recently visited your city and was saddened to see that one of the most important attractions is falling into disrepair. This place has always attracted tourists with its historical significance and beauty, but now it needs restoration and care. Unfortunately, I stayed at a hotel where repairs have not been carried out for a long time. The rooms are outdated, and this significantly reduces the impression of your stay. I sincerely hope that you will be able to find the resources and opportunities to restore this important place and upgrade the hotel so that they will again delight visitors and preserve their uniqueness.
