"The views are spectacular. The staff is friendly and helpful. Love that each room has its own sauna. Take advantage of the restaurant for lunch or an early dinner. Managing the gondola timing is easy. And if you miss the lower gondola, there a taxis that can take you to the second stop. We had more than enough time to go to the city and make it back before the last gondola."
"Very nice hotel with excellent staff!
The rooms are nice but starting to show their age. Breakfast buffet is great but the restaurants could be better ( for the $ )."
"Good for the price, just a bit far away from the main touristy parts 30 min minimum to get to bars and restaurants helpful staff English was spoken well"
"Small hotel inside a building. The room is always a little noisy because of the traffic, even at night. Asked me to pay for breakfast but it was included in the reservation.
"
"Great price, but you get what you pay for. I was supposed to get breakfast, but that only occurred 2 out of the 4 nights I stayed there. They had some urgent matters two of those mornings. WiFi was very slow and not reliable. Then was out for one whole day and night"
"Overall, this was a nice and clean place to stay there was an unpleasant smell in the cabin and the main shower head didn’t work in one of our cabins and the glass in the patio was too high blocking the view. "

"Fantastic hotel! The pool area is top notch, the breakfast buffet is superior with varying options every day, the room is very comfortable, and the staff are amazing. We would stay there again!"
"I recently stayed at the Novotel City Centre for work, and both the hotel and its location were excellent. Unfortunately, I was overcharged by a taxi driver upon arrival at the airport, who demanded 40,000 KZT for a ride that should have cost only 10,000 KZT.
However, a member of the hotel staff, Adil, went above and beyond to assist me. He promptly reviewed the hotel’s CCTV footage, identified the taxi involved, and contacted the taxi company on my behalf. Thanks to his intervention, the driver returned to the hotel and refunded 30,000 KZT directly to reception.
Adil’s professionalism, initiative, and dedication to guest service were outstanding, and he should be sincerely congratulated for his efforts. This experience truly restored my faith in customer care."
