Depends on room you get. Some rooms are pretty good, where everything works, some are not: conditioning is noisy vent, temp regulator on heating battery missed this you have an option to open balcony door to "make youreselves comfortable" . As a plus - birds singing is wonderful, road noise is terrible. So, check the room, and good luck.
In my case it was good, my colleague not do lucky.
Nice place. The room was confartable. The food is also good.
We stayed for 3 nights this February. Very nice hotel. Very clean and really helpful staff! Rooms were great as well. Absolutely no complaints. Highly recommended!
Excellent service för a Good price and a Good location.
Stayed here for two weeks, highly recommend as it is good value for money. Great buffet breakfast and very close to the underground.
A good hotel with good service. It seems a little old and some refurbishments would be highly recommended. They also don't have any exchange here so you can't use dollars which was very inconvenient. The breakfast was quite nice.
The hotel needs upgrading, the carpets and arm chairs in the rooms. It's clean and comfortable. Good bathroom. However, the service is generally bad. I was getting dressed and a male member of staff let himself in with his card to check the mini bar! My colleague 's key card was deactivated while we had breakfast because we were checking out that day. Horrible attitude from reception staff.
In desperate need of some referbishment specially bedrooms. The staff are ok. Breakfast really good with plenty to choose from - however it's hard to get a coffee or tea as the staff never seems to bother. Other then that an OK hotel.
Very good hotel
PA bit old-ish, but still grand Perfect location, a lot of greenery
Nice hotel, good food, could do with more hot water though
Used to be the best hotel in Almaty. But time passes
The hotel is dated and carpets are worn, please don't let the distant fotos fool you. I'll post a couple pictures of my room. Breakfast was good, but I didn't get any sleep because the blower fan in my room would randomly squeak and startle me awake. I left feeling exhausted and untested. When I said something to the staff they were unresponsive. Wish I could leave zero stars!
Good hotel, nice rooms, professional service.
This place was very clean and the staff were very friendly. The morning buffet is incredibly fresh and tasty! The Rahat was Kazakhstan's first 5-star hotel, and it's seen better days. The shabby chic is unintended, but well-maintained by the staff.
One of the greatest things is that it's located ideally for those who want to explore by foot. Within reasonable walking distance to shopping, groceries, and tasty restaurants!
