"We stayed on the ground floor away from the road and it was really quiet. The breakfast was ok for a small hotel. We found the hotel comfortable.We did have a safe problem, which wasn’t fixed, but we did only stay 2 nights."
"1.They do not have a hair dryer and electric kettle. At hotel reservation app, they posted they have those.
2.Restroom and shower in the room is small. If the guests are large, they can be stuck between shower and toilet bowl.
3.Restroom and shower is clean but beddings are so-so.
4.Furnitures are broken and very uncomfortable. I do not know why they put them there.
5.There's no air-conditioner in the room and in the shower/toilet. You might have to open the toilet door to make it dry."
"The Plaza Hotel is a decent place to stay in Almaty. The rooms are clean, well equipped and comfortable. The breakfast is good but not amazing but as it’s a buffet I’m sure there’s plenty there to satisfy everyone. It’s not the most central hotel but the area around is safe and the river makes orientating yourself in the city quite easy. Get Yandex Go the ex-Soviet equivalent of Uber and getting around costs next to nothing and is very quick and efficient. Would I stay here again? Absolutely! It’s a very good hotel. "
