Shops on the first floor were never open, the majority of staff had no ideas or references for shopping. Very limited ability to charge to room (results in multiple charges and fees for international visitors). Overall, these were small things as the hotel is lovely, the rooms comfortable, the location excellent, and several staff members (Svitlana at reception) are exceptional.

Our hotel stay was amazing. Very helpful front desk and hotel staff. Rooms were clean and comfortable. Many of the staff spoke English and were very helpful on local information and suggestions. Housekeeping staff were there every morning and supplied water, tea and coffee to our room. Our original stay was for 7 days but we had to extend our stay twice, and the hotel staff took care of everything. We had the breakfast buffet every morning and were very pleased with the food selections. We will stay here again whenever we return to Almaty!

Check-in as a VIP access was granted at 11 am. Late check-out was also given to us. Airport transfers were done for us. Friendly and helpful front desk and staff. The place is within walking distance to popular Almaty attractions.

I visit Almaty at least ones a year for one or two weeks for the past 8 years I always stay at the Dostyk. Love the Place, the staff are very professional, polite, helpful. The location is very convenient. The food at the restaurant and bar suburb, kudos to the chef Alecksandr Fomich, he never disappoints. The rooms are a little outdated, however clean and very comfortable. I wish they would install a railing on the front steps. In the winter it makes me nervous because of the possibility of slipping. I will definitely be back.

Grat stay, friendly staff, front desk was very helpful when I had an emergency and needed to go to a hospital, they arranged everything including Taxi to hospital, who refused to take any money for the ride. That was very kind and helpful from the Hotel and the Taxi driver side. All I can say is THANKS

The hotel room is bigger than average clean very big comfortable bed. Our 15 month old baby had a nice comfortable crib too. Due to COVID measures the restaurant and swimming pool were not open. Hotel is in a wealthy part of the city’s very close to restaurants and cafes. We had a great stay. Staff was very helpful and friendly. We will stay here again
