A very good stay The hotel is located in the heart of the city. Close proximity to the tourist attractions (the bridge, waterfront, museums, parks, open air market, Chinatown etc. The mall is just adjacent to the lobby with many good stores (not if you are looking for high end brands) The room I booked was not available and was upgraded to a 2 bedroom accomodation. It was spacious and very clean. The view was stunning looking at the river and the bridge (the Astana- head of state official residents on the distance) The pool we small but functional and the breakfast was good. Buffet style with excellent choice of different cuisines. Super impressive display of paintings by local artist (I am a fan) at the lobby and public areas. Complimentary car park a a big plus
