Qazybek Hotel

There’s an Indian restaurant very close by.

I’ve been coming back to this hotel every so often for 8-9 years, mainly because it’s so handy in the city center with lots to do nearby. The rooms are clean, comfortable, and cozy, and there’s a big sauna with a pool table and swimming pool. The bar stays open nearly until the early hours, too. Mini-fridges, dishes, and other things used to be in the rooms, but they aren’t anymore. You can still ask for what you need at the bar. I’d give this hotel complex 7/10 👌🏻

The sauna was great, and I’ll be back on weekends. The price was reasonable, and I think this is one of the best hotels at this level. The beds were spacious and comfortable, the linens stayed clean, and the kitchen was open around the clock. You could order food and drinks to your room anytime, and the food was surprisingly good. Soundproofing was good too, which mattered to me.

Breakfast was tasty, though the kids’ cereal was just average. We had smoking rooms because there weren’t any other options. The steps were too steep for someone with a bad leg, and our room looked out onto the courtyard, which wasn’t much of a view.
