Overall, I had a very pleasant stay at the hotel. Everything was comfortable, the staff were helpful, and I really enjoyed my time in Kazakhstan. I may have accidentally left behind a small part of my swimsuit — a horseshoe-shaped metal piece used as a clasp for the bikini top. If it has been found, I would really appreciate it if you could contact me via WhatsApp at +6…. Thank you very much! Elena.

Yan G. Families - Confirmed reviews ALL

I would like to provide some constructive feedback regarding my recent stays at your property, during which I occupied two different rooms across two separate visits: totaling four rooms in all. First, I encountered a recurring issue with the air conditioning. In each of the rooms, the cooling system did not perform adequately, which made it difficult to maintain a comfortable temperature. Second, I experienced consistently low water pressure. During our first stay, the pressure was so weak that it took approximately twenty minutes to rinse off soap. On our second stay, when we raised this concern, we were informed that the low pressure was due to a storm. However, I also heard other guests mentioning similar issues on both occasions. The problem persisted regardless of floor level, we were on the fifth floor during the first stay and the tenth floor during the second. Lastly, I would like to bring to your attention an issue with the ATM near the lobby. After dispensing cash, the machine retained my card. When I reported this to your team, I was told that other guests had previously reported the same problem and that it would take up to fifteen days for the bank to return the card. Given that I do not reside locally and was traveling with my family, staying only two to three days per country, this created significant inconvenience. I asked why, if the issue was already known, the machine was not clearly marked as out of service or accompanied by a notice advising guests to use alternative options. While I understand this may not be a hotel-operated facility, I believe a more proactive approach—such as posting a visible warning, would be helpful for international travelers who depend on such services. On a positive note, I would like to acknowledge that throughout both stays, your team members were consistently helpful, courteous, and positive in their interactions with us. Their professionalism was very much appreciated. On the side not I was not informed directly of the benefits of being a platinum member on the first day because my wife did the check in and she didn't ask while I asked in the second time and then they told me the whole range of benefits the hotel could provide us. The team was not trained to value regular customers.

Dear Mr. Yan, Thank you for taking the time to share such detailed and constructive feedback following your stays with us. We sincerely regret that your experience did not meet your expectations, particularly as you chose to stay with us on multiple occasions and are an ALL member. We are particularly sorry to hear about the recurring issues with air conditioning and water pressure across your rooms. We fully understand how uncomfortable this must have been, especially when the same concerns occurred during both stays. Your feedback has been shared with our Engineering team for a thorough review and further attention. We also understand your concerns regarding the ATM. While this facility is operated by an external provider, we agree that when an issue is known, clearer signage or communication would help prevent inconvenience for our international guests. We will raise this matter with the relevant provider and review how we can communicate such situations more proactively. Regarding your ALL Platinum benefits, we are sorry that you felt insufficiently recognized and that the available benefits were not clearly communicated to you during your first arrival. Having reviewed the details of your stay, we can confirm that an upgrade was provided for both rooms and that your welcome drink benefit was included. Nevertheless, we regret that these benefits were not clearly communicated or experienced as part of the recognition you expected as a valued ALL member. Your comments regarding the team's knowledge of ALL benefits are valuable, and we will reinforce this aspect with our Front Office team to ensure that our loyal members receive consistent and personalized recognition throughout their stay. At the same time, we truly appreciate your kind words about our colleagues. It is encouraging to know that, despite the difficulties you experienced, our team remained helpful, courteous and professional throughout both stays. Thank you again for bringing these matters to our attention. Your feedback gives us a clear understanding of the areas where we need to improve. We sincerely hope to have the opportunity to restore your confidence in Novotel Almaty City Center and provide you with the level of comfort, service and recognition you should expect from us. Warm regards, Altynay Guest Relations Manager Novotel Almaty City Center

Our stay at the Novotel Almaty City Centre was great. The staff were friendly and welcoming, offered help throughout our stay, as we were travelling with our little one who is 4 months old. Breakfast Buffet was great, huge choice and something for everyone. Room Service reasonably priced and great food. Only downside to the stay was our experience with housekeeping where they often interrupted us despite having already cleaned the room and on one occasion we had to ask reception to get them to clean the room - reception were more than happy to help but it did take housekeeping 2 hours to come. Overall, a great stay on the whole. It could only be improved if housekeeping were more organised.

Dear Mr. C., Thank you very much for your detailed and thoughtful feedback. We are delighted to know that you and your family had an overall great stay at Novotel Almaty City Center. It is wonderful to hear that you enjoyed our convenient location, generous breakfast selection, room service, and especially the warm and helpful support from our team while travelling with your little one. We are particularly grateful for your kind words regarding the colleagues who assisted with your luggage and late check-out. Although you did not have their names, we will be happy to share your appreciation with the team. At the same time, we sincerely apologize for the inconvenience caused by the housekeeping service, especially the interruptions despite the “Do Not Disturb” sign and the delay in servicing your room. This does not reflect the attentive and comfortable experience we aim to provide, and your comments will be shared with our Housekeeping team for further improvement. Thank you once again for your valuable feedback and for your continued trust in Accor. We look forward to welcoming you and your family back for an even smoother and more enjoyable stay.

good location. However the room size was smaller. Food options are very limited for vegetarians (especially for those who dont even have eggs). we are vegetarians and are allergic to eggs. so there was nothing for us as the breads, rolls and croissants also had eggs. We had to live only on salads

Dear Mr. Amit, Thank you for taking the time to share your detailed feedback. We are pleased to know that you appreciated our convenient location, and we are sorry that other aspects of your stay did not fully meet your expectations. We sincerely regret the limited breakfast options you experienced, particularly considering your egg allergy and dietary requirements. We understand how important it is for guests with specific dietary needs to have safe and suitable choices available. Your feedback has been shared with our Food & Beverage team for further review, particularly regarding clearly identified egg-free options and greater variety for guests with dietary restrictions. We also appreciate your comments regarding the room size and value for money, and we will take them into consideration as we continue to improve the guest experience. Thank you for choosing Novotel Almaty City Center and for your valuable feedback. We hope to have the opportunity to provide you with a more comfortable and enjoyable stay in the future.

Suraj S. Families - Confirmed reviews ALL

We had a 6-night stay in a Junior Suite at Novotel Almaty City Center. Overall, the hotel was great. The suite was spacious, and the staff was very welcoming and helpful with most of our needs. The location is perfect—close to many great restaurants and right next to Kok Tobe. Breakfast offered a nice fresh juice machine, though the rest of the food variety was just okay. Since we had a late flight, the staff also accommodated us with the latest possible check-out, which we really appreciated. However, we were disappointed by a lack of attention to detail regarding a couple of issues: 1. Bed Type: When we checked in late at night, we were assigned a queen bed instead of the king bed we had booked. We had a 4:00 AM tour the next morning, so we were too exhausted to ask for a room change right away. The staff kindly moved us to a king room after we returned from our tour the next evening. 2. Maintenance Issue: In the new room, the connecting door between the bedroom and living room wouldn't close properly. We reported this to reception. A technician came but couldn't fix it. I called reception again, and two more staff members came to look at it, but they just apologized, walked away, and no one ever followed up or resolved it. We spent the remaining 5 nights with a broken door that let morning light into the bedroom. While the door issue wasn't a complete dealbreaker, when paying for a premium Junior Suite for 6 nights, you expect everything in the room to work properly and for staff to follow up on reported problems. Aside from these hiccups, the service in other areas was good, the rooms were clean, and the location is hard to beat. As a loyal Accor member, I hope management addresses these maintenance details so future stays truly reflect the high standard and value we pay for.

Dear Mr. Suraj, Thank you for taking the time to share such a detailed review of your recent stay at Novotel Almaty City Center and for your continued loyalty as an Accor member. We are delighted to know that you enjoyed our central location, spacious Junior Suite, the cleanliness of the hotel, and the friendliness of our team. It is also a pleasure to hear that the late check-out arrangement helped make your departure more comfortable. At the same time, we sincerely apologize for the inconveniences you experienced. We regret that your initial room did not match your booked bed preference, although we are glad our team was able to arrange a room change as soon as possible. More importantly, we are sorry that the maintenance issue with the connecting door was not resolved during your stay. We fully understand your disappointment, especially for a six-night stay in a Junior Suite, and agree that this should have been followed through until it was properly addressed. Please be assured that your comments have been shared with our Engineering and Front Office teams. We will review our follow-up procedures to ensure reported maintenance issues are handled more efficiently and communicated more effectively. Thank you once again for your valuable feedback. We truly appreciate your balanced comments and hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back and provide you with the seamless experience you rightfully expect. Kind regards, Altynay Guest Relations Specialist Novotel Almaty City Center

Dustin J. S. Families - Confirmed reviews ALL

We stayed for 6 nights in a junior suite with a family of 3. Perfect size room for that many for a long stay. The room looks exactly like in the pictures. The room felt clean and was modern, although a few USB outlets would have been nice. The entire staff was very friendly, especially the staff in the breakfast area. The location is great in terms of walking. There is a hidden path that starts behind the hotel and runs along a creek that passes by a few playgrounds and is a really nice walk. So much car traffic, everywhere, including to get to and from the hotel. Overall, a great stay and would stay here again.

Your kind words about our team, especially our breakfast staff, are truly appreciated. We will be delighted to share your compliments with them, as they will certainly be encouraged by your recognition. We are also pleased that you enjoyed our central location and had the opportunity to explore the beautiful walking path along the creek behind the hotel.
