Kazzhol Astana

Light fills the rooms first. Panoramic windows run floor to ceiling in most categories, and the palette stays pale and plain: white walls, pale wood, glass. The hotel sits in Astana, with guest rooms and suites arranged across a newer nine-storey wing and the main tower, each with air conditioning, a flat-screen television, a minibar and an en-suite bathroom with a hairdryer. It is not a small property. Family and Delux apartments run to 25 or 32 m², some with a terrace or balcony, and several rooms on higher floors look out toward the hills beyond the city. A cot can be added for guests travelling with small children. Wi-Fi and parking are included across room categories, along with fitness centre access. Check the room grid before booking: sizes and views vary more than the categories suggest.
