Rahat Palace is one of the most modern buildings. The Spa was wonderful, the views were amazing, the breakfast was lovely, just wish the descriptions were teeny bit bigger. I would stay again if the price was right. It is more on the pricey side, but you get what you pay for.

Good quality

Hotel is nice. Since last time I went, fitness center and spa were renovated and for me was perfect. Anyway, best part of Hotel I believe to be the staff. All of them very kind and ready to help. A special thanks to Mrs. Assem. Amazing quality manager. So helpful.

The Rahat Palace has been our favourite hotel in Almaty for some time Most of the facilities are excellent and the food and in particular the staff who are first class The one issue is that some areas would benefit from some TLC The hotel opened circa 1994 and it is fair to say that some areas would benefit from being refreshed otherwise we always enjoy our stays and will continue to do so We had some particular issues with our last stay which we addressed directly with the hotel during our stay and which were resolved to our satisfaction

Fair warning this is a 3 star hotel not a 5 star as advertised. For the money there are much better options in the city. Pros: breakfast was excellent. Atrium looks impressive. Ambience for the restaurant in the front of the property (yurt in a nicely landscaped lawn area). Cons: hotel is tired looking and in serious need of renovations. Atrium smells of diesel fumes i suspect being used to power the glass elevators. Rooms have some tech upgrades (electric curtains, lots of light button options, tv and google alexa voice cube) however dismal air-conditioning. The coolest I could get my room was 24 degrees. They did switch my room but same story in the second room despite a visit from maintenence to check the ac. 'It's very small' as per him. Do not stay here if you prefer sleeping in a cool environment.

For the weary traveler who might have had a long journey to Almaty, this hotel is a great place to stay. Clean facilities, good food, friendly staff, and 24 hr room service. I was happy to get a cup of coffee at 430 am when I really needed it. Breakfast buffet is also very good.

They must have been perfect 30 years ago.

The hotel was an outstanding one 30 years ago. Now they just one of good ones. Management works hard to make the stay good, but staff is a bit out of ground. Thay could not help me taxi ordering for in city travelling. One more example: I paid 3 nights and did not have a single breakfast due to late arrival and early leave. At 10:35 I asked just for coffee and been refused.
