Jumbaktas Hotel

alltogether it was a good stay. the room was big, the bed was comfortable and the staff at the reception desk very helpful. two comments though : I landed in Astana at 4 am and I asked the hotel whether I could check in earlier and pay - their only answer was " your booking allows you to check in at 2 pm - " well, I knew that already and I clearly indicated I was prepared to pay for the additional half day - they never answered. so I had to find an emergency solution when I landed at 4 am - I managed with my family but the hotel answer was clearly not professional. then, I booked this particular hotel because it had a swimming pool. However, to access the pool, you need to pay an additional 15 euros (10 000 tenge)! it is very expensive so I did not do it and I could never swim. the marketign is somehow..not correct I think. so, it was OK but I will not go again under the same conditions.

All good

We were extremely unhappy with our stay here. 1. It was cold in the room and we couldn’t use the heater, because it doesn’t work during summer time. Reception doesn’t have clue about it, and they were just telling us turn on AC for heat and wait 10 mins. 2. On the reception in the evening there was a random drunk person from the street. There are no any security there. 3. In the hotel restaurant they did not remember the whole order… We were waiting until we asked, and they were like.. “Did you order fish??”.. Of course, after waiting for an hour for the fish, we just decided to cancel it. That was the worst experience in the luxury hotel we had. Honestly, I do not understand why this hotel considered as luxury… I do not recommend anyone to stay here.

The promised city view turned out to be a view on a wall. Wifi was spotty and restricted, The swimming pool was available for 10000 tenge. Breakfast buffet was basic and not really delicious or nutritious consisting of porridge, sausages, mushrooms, chicken wings, and a limited choice of vegetables.

It is ok but poor room service.

The AC in the room was not working all of 4 days I stayed in this hotel. The sauna, swimming pool and fitness center are very good

Stayed a week, choose this property for its proximity to my work site. Room was large, clean and comfortable. Staff were mildly helpful, very little English spoken but genuinely attempted to see to needs when they could. Room was VERY quiet given that it overlooked a busy street with many honking motorists. AC only worked some of the time.

The hotel is beautiful and perfectly located, however the staff leaves a lot to be desired. I booked this hotel for the free pool access only to find out that it costs extra unless you are in a “business” room. This was not advertised and I had to get Expedia involved. It does not look like the hotel has updated this tidbit. Another lack of professionalism displayed was housekeeping coming into my room without knocking. I was about to leave within 10 minutes and figured I should jump into the shower. When I came out, (in only a towel), I saw my door wide open, requiring me to go out into the hallway to close it. I then saw that there were two women fiddling around in my mini bar. I am not sure how they did not hear the shower running when they entered, but regardless, instead of excusing themselves for the misunderstanding, (which would have been completely excusable), they just looked at me and kept working as if I was in the way! I had to yell at them multiple times to get out until they finally got the hint. When I returned that night (after having put the “make up my room” sign on the door, I noticed that they did not replace my towels that I had left on the floor for replacement. I unfortunately did not notice this until I was coming out of the shower and saw dirt on my towel as I was drying off. The bed was haphazardly put back together by just draping the comforter on top of the bed. Pillows were left on a chair. Location is great, staff is appalling.

Everything is good.

The location is good. There are a lot of dining options around. The hotel is clean. The amenities are great. The only thing- after the first night I went to breakfast at 7 am and it was not ready till 7.30 am. The person who organized the breakfast either was late to his job or some other problems. Because of this I was late to my meetings in the city 3 hours drive away.

It was an amazing stay. Quiet and clean place, hospitable people, excellent amenities, stuff went above and beyond. Definitely would recommend everybody to stay there!

Friendly and helpful staff, nice location for a stay, the Spa is not free and not directly in the hotel, price is quite expensive for going there..

Past its best. Intermittent WiFi. Good if you can get a deal but better places available.

The gym is very good. Great restaurants nearby- Italian, Asian, German

Very good staff service and location, breakfast can be improved

Tower of a building at a corner of road junction. McDonalds near by. Bathroom very poor size and design Darkened hotel corridors - safety hazard

This is a very Nice hotel. Comfortable beds and room. Good breakfast buffet. Close to three big shopping centers. Staff was very friendly and they speak English

My flight arrived at6am and I went to the hotel. Although my room was not available yet they allowed me to stay in the lobby and gave me the free breakfast for that day. When a room opened up at 11am they gave it to me and it was an upgrated room at my regular rate.

Gut

Das Jumbaktas liegt so Zentral, so dass das Zentrum mit den Sehenswürdigkeiten leicht zu Fuss machbar ist. Sehr schönes Ambiente im Hotel und ein wunderbar, bequemes Bett, um gut zu schlafen. Das Personal ist sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Das Frühstückbuffet bietet ein breites Angebot.
