This is a huge hotel that looks like a palace inside. It's very well maintained and clean. My single room was enormous, the largest room I've ever stayed at. It had a beautiful view of the marble buildings outside. It was a comfortable stay except for minor plumbing issues with the water in the shower not draining fully. Breakfast was very average, and service at reception isn't the best. English isn't widely spoken and staff can come across a bit rude and cold. But overall, highly recommend this hotel.

The place is beautiful and very comfortable. We had a great room with an awesome view of the white city.. the breakfast buffet was not the greatest, but enough to enjoy your breakfast. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Rooms are very large

Another cavernous hotel in Ashgabat with that sense of ex soviet “don’t care” customer service. Overall comfortable and (randomly) well appointed. You should get enough towels, tea making facilities, toiletries and lights that can be put off at night, but have a lot of patience and time if you need to chase reception and house keeping for any of these things (which you will), and don’t expect to get water in bottles. There should be a safe, and tv but no English speaking channel except a Chinese one. Breakfast is a bit of a bun fight if the hotel is busy. You can get plenty of revolting sausage like meat and cakes but choose carefully and you will find nice plain yogurt, eggs, salads and seasonal fruits. The best thing is the proximity to the shopping mall which provides endless entertainment beyond shopping such as hosting glitzy weddings and a food hall with some excellent and extremely good value food outlets. We struggled to spend $10 for two people, on wonderful lentil soup, fresh salad, bread, kebabs and a drink (not alcoholic of course). Not worth looking for city restaurants.

Very nice hotel in an beautiful and impressive city In Aşgabat (Ashkhabad) they don’t hold back on anything. The city is built in marble and the hotel is not an exception. Spacious rooms good beds good food. The staff has to adjust and get used to western customers as they are not so service minded like staff is luxury hotels elsewhere in the world. But it was not bad just missed the little extra. Will definitely be coming back to Aşgabat.

The room smelt like toilet. I had them bleach the toilet but the smell didn’t change. It turn out to be the water smelled. I had the room changed. The next room was smelling like cigarettes. So I had to change the room Again. There was no bath Mat, no hungers. However, the reception people were nice and accommodating. WiFi was slow.

Behind the facade and the spectacular out-of-date decoration, this hotel has the worst reception I have ever experienced and not then if we go to the breakfast section... you are left speechless, at the level of a hostel, I have even been in hostels and guesthouses where I have enjoyed a better breakfast. The reception is inefficient, rude and arrogant, none of the many receptionists we had were up to par with a supposedly high-quality hotel. The breakfast... how to describe it... would need a whole page... simply far below a hotel that is also supposed to be of high category. To add something positive, the quality of the mattresses and the cleanliness of the room, as well as the friendliness of the clean service staff, the only ones that showed a service at the level of this hotel.
