If you’re searching for a hotel to stay in Almaty but you’re put off by the room rates at the Ritz-Carlton, my advice is get a temporary second job to increase your budget because this hotel, their staff and the facilities are worth every penny of the cost. The staff are second to none in their attention to detail, their anticipation of your requirements and going the extra mile to make your stay not just good but verging on the magical! The management deserve an accolade for achieving such a high standard of service from every member of staff in all departments of this hotel. Bravissimo!

inconvenient location away from the city, chose as looked close"er" to Shymbulak but not much difference at the end of the day. Concierge gave us wrong information on several occasions, room cleaning needed reminding.

Lovely place!
The hotel is beautiful with a useful car park. Do remember to make sure that you go all the way up to the 30th floor to find the reception. Breakfast is on the 30th floor and then the rooms are situated below that. There are beautiful views of the mountains from all windows. Reception is stunning with plenty of seating.

Good choice for Almaty
Staff were very good and efficient, with very fast response time. Good location. Food was average even though prices were high and I expected more from a Ritz Carlton on the good front. Disappointed that there was not a pillow menu since the pillows were too soft. Hot tub was not hot and this would have been nice after a day skiing. Sauna and steam were good. Nice lobby atmosphere but restaurants lacked atmosphere, variety, people and prices were expensive for what you got.
