Hotels near Khram V Chest＇ Vozdvizheniya Kresta Gospodnya in Almaty

I had an 11 hour layover between my flight from Dubai to my flight to Atyrau and was really searching for a hotel near the airport that was convenient and reasonably priced. Grand Hotel Erbil is both of those. I made the booking online with the option to pay on arrival. The booking made provision for a free shuttle pickup from the airport and a very reasonable transfer back the following morning. The hotel confirmed everything by Whatsapp. Contactless payment. Clean room. Clean linen. Friendly and efficient service. I ordered a simple burger and chips via WhatsApp and the food arrived hot and fresh. Minibar is fully stocked and reasonably priced. Their menu is extensive (55 page book) and they cater for everything from a bowl of hummus to platters of meats, cakes, cocktails, etc. For a traveller, this hotel is well worth it. Thanks, Grand Hotel Erbil!

Warm service, Facilities: OK Hygiene: tidy

I stayed at Hostel Doma three days … nov 2023 .. it was a very pleasant stay.. the hostel is very clean and cozy .. nice location , easy access. The receptionist Jameela was very nice and helpful.. will visit again 😊

The price/performance ratio is very different from that of China, which is equivalent to about 60 yuan in China, and the price fluctuation is particularly large. I am really worried that the guests of Niu Gaomada are difficult to turn around in the narrow room, and the bed is not wide enough. Except for the two bedside tables, there is no place to put luggage items, let alone there is a table and table. Some ”balconies” are similar to an elevator well, 1.9m below, don't expect to see the outside, I saw the exterior of another building.

The breakfast was good, but not fantastic. The room was good and clean, there were some supplies in the toilette. Parks and places around the hotel are nice, and you can have a good walk around, if you wish. There were always noise (I'd assume cleaners did some work) quite early in the morning. Another issue is that the breakfast time in the morning is until 10am sharp, which is not convenient for people travelling from Europe for leisure. As I understood, there're no alternatives available. We asked a bottle of water and an additional blanked to the room, and it was challenging to get them. Particularly, with the bottle of water, as they refused to put the cost of it on the hotel room, but requested a cash payment. It was a surprise for us.

Cheaper, next to mega shopping is very convenient. When you book, you will live on the same day, confirm that the room is very fast. The next day after the breakfast, you will be sent directly to the room. The breakfast is quite rich.

We recently had a stay at this Swissotel. Given the reputation of the brand, our expectations were naturally set high. However, the reality of our experience fell significantly short of those anticipations. 1. Check-in Procedure: Even with online check-in we were subjected to a 30-minute wait. One of our pre-booked rooms was not ready at the time of arrival. 2. Room's Condition: - A glaring lapse in cleanliness was evident with the state of the bathroom floor near its entrance (photo attached). - The bathroom door's sliding mechanism was faulty and highly inconvenient. - The overall condition of the bathroom indicated it's due for an overhaul and repairs (photos attached). - The discovery of a used ear swab under the table raised significant concerns about the room's preparation and cleanliness (photo attached). - A faulty power outlet in the bathroom added to the growing list of maintenance concerns (photo attached). - The discovery of a dead insect in the drapes clearly points to a continuous lack of attention to detail with the cleaning staff (photo attached). 3. Birthday Cake: Our agreement for a pre-arranged complimentary birthday cake was not only overlooked but was also delivered a day later than promised, despite having multiple conversations and providing evidence of our prior agreement (via the official hotel WhatsApp). 4. Water Bottle Replenishment: The consistent oversight in providing an essential like water, despite multiple request channels, was surprising. The water had to be fetched from the cleaning staff, we had to chase them and ask. None of the other channels, like the official app or the reception, fulfilled our request for the water delivery. 5. Dining: Our anticipation of an à la carte menu was countered by a buffet offering. Being told this was due to hotel occupancy levels feeling unsatisfactory. This went on for both evenings spent at the hotel. Portions of the a la carte menu were available only for room service. 6. Buffet Food Quality: The limited options, particularly for main courses (3), left much to be desired. Our experience with the freshly prepared pasta was particularly disappointing. It was watery, bland, disgusting. You could get better pasta at an office canteen. We have travelled quite a big part of the world and this buffet was easily the worst we have ever had. Both taste and variety were not worth the price. And we were forced into it by being denied the a la carte option. The hotel is above capacity - great, but we paid for the same service as if it weren't, right? Not OUR problem. 7. Breakfast Experience: The overall offering was lackluster. The variety was uninspiring, especially when compared to even basic 3-star hotels. Stale pastry (croissant from the day before) at a 5* hotel is inexcusable - these are absolute basics. Staff appeared overwhelmed, often forgetting to replenish food and drinks (had to be reminded many times) and struggling to manage guest numbers. Only 2 juice options fo

Good location, next to the park. Many hotels in Almaty were fully booked that day and we couldn't book a room. When we placed an order at this hotel, we thought we could save some money by having breakfast for one person. However, the front desk at check-in told us that we could only stay alone. Only then did we understand that Almaty hotels The number of people who place an order for breakfast is the same as the number of people checking in, so our family of three must pay another 1w jian ge to check in, including breakfast for two other people, and then we can check in. Both beds are 0.8 meters wide, so there's nothing we can do about it. It's hard to explain why the shower leaked so badly at night. We were stunned at breakfast the next day. The most hearty breakfast in Almaty. After breakfast, I checked out of the room and stored my luggage, then went to the park. While walking, I discovered a botanical garden. The tickets were cheap. Going in was like exploring a secret place. I saw many ancient trees and squirrels, and the botanical garden landscape design is also beautiful. It’s worth it, come back and pick up your luggage after shopping.
