Hotels Near Independence Monument in Almaty

Excellent hotel, there are too many advantages, so I’ll name one of the obvious disadvantages, they don’t help with luggage when checking in, it looks very strange for 5 stars

I really liked the hotel. Excellent service. Clean. Friendly and caring staff. They will always help solve any problem. Breakfasts are excellent, varied, correspond to the declared stars. When possible, we always try to choose Holiday Inn.

From my point of view, the Holiday Inn Express Almaty is truly exceptional. The accommodations are comfortable and well-maintained, providing a relaxing environment for guests. The customer service is outstanding, with staff going above and beyond to meet guests' needs. The food offerings are diverse and delicious, catering to various tastes. The hotel's location provides breathtaking views of the surrounding area, adding to the overall experience. Additionally, Mr. Nurbek Dauitov, the front office manager, deserves special recognition for his exceptional assistance and dedication to ensuring guests have a memorable stay. His professionalism and helpfulness contribute significantly to the hotel's excellent reputation.

Really nice place to rest for a few days in Almaty. The rooftop breakfast is really nice with a good view! The air conditioner could be a little better and the curtains could be a bit darker. Overall the hotel is nice with friendly staff!

Very small room actually.Looks definitely less then 25 m2 And the real size of the QUEEN BED IS LESS THEN 1.8m and it was 1.5.The bad was uncomfortable and the linen was not soft. Every day we need to ask 1 more overall for bathroom cuz everyday we has only one in my room.And the same story with teeth brush.The room was booked for 2 by the way. Staff is actually good and pleasant! The main disadvantage is SMALL BED and small room-very tine for two people (we are about 170 cm tall). The breakfast is nice. Actually this hotel is overpriced for that kind of room provided

Subject: Excellent Location, but Overpriced and Outdated Rooms I stayed at Hotel Kazakhstan in Almaty for more than 10 days, drawn initially by its prime location. The hotel’s location is indeed its biggest strength—bang on the main road with excellent accessibility to various parts of the city, making it convenient for travelers. The property itself is a heritage hotel, and while it has its charm, the overall experience was mixed. The hotel is quite old, though the upkeep and concierge services were commendable. However, the parking facility was a major issue. During snowfall, it became extremely messy, and entering the hotel was quite challenging. Regarding the rooms, my experience varied throughout the stay: • The initial superior room booked online was decent, offering good space and facilities. • The “supreme premium superior” room I opted for later was disappointing—it was smaller, with a worse layout and fewer amenities than the superior room, which was surprising and frustrating. • For the last three days, I upgraded to a junior suite. While it offered more space, the layout and overall upkeep of the room felt outdated, leaving much to be desired. A consistent issue across all three rooms was the drainage system in the washrooms, which was poorly maintained and created unnecessary inconvenience. The breakfast provided as part of the stay had a wide selection and was good. However, the menu did not change for all nine days, which became monotonous for a longer stay. Room dining, though available, could be significantly improved in terms of quality and variety. Overall, while the location of Hotel Kazakhstan is unbeatable and perfect for those who want to stay in the heart of the city, the property feels overpriced given the outdated facilities and lack of variety in services. I would only recommend it to travelers with a good budget who prioritize location and heritage charm over modern amenities.

During my stay, I really enjoyed my room, comfort and convenience of this hotel. Also it was a wonderful involvement into the history and prospects of the Almaty hotel which is located in the historical center of Almaty and provides high-quality service for the clients. Breakfast is highly recommended.

The room price is high, but the hotel room facilities are average, especially the bathroom; the breakfast is rich, but the restaurant is small and narrow. The front desk staff has a good attitude.

The room had no windows, I didn't understand what time of day it was, and it was cool in the room, the breakfast wasn't very good. Only the location was good, the photos showed photos of the pool and sauna, the reception didn't give any information about this, I asked for two cards and they still gave only one!

It was a beautiful hotel. The front desk staff who checked me in were very friendly, and the people who helped me with my luggage were also kind. The rooms were clean and the hot water and water pressure were excellent. It was very good.
