ChinaI had a wonderful stay at Wanderlust Hostel, thank you so much for everything :) Everything is clean and orderly, it's centrally located, the staff is great and friendly, and they were very kind and helped me out with a baggage situation when I first got to Almaty. Can't say thank you enough! Would highly recommend staying here at Wanderlust, it's a lovely spot in Almaty.
United States of AmericaThank you for the great time in Almaty. I spent nice time at the place. It is good for people travelling alone or in small groups. The common area is ideal for discussions and reading. It is very important to mention that it is not a 5-star hotel and please do not expect exceptional quality and comfort. However, the the price for the quality is very good. The place is unique because of people. It is possible to chat with travelers from all around the world. Moreover, the staff is very kind, honest and helpful. I was positively surprised because the last day there was a live concert on the roof. Great atmosphere and wonderful people. I recommend to stay more than just a day to appreciate that.
PolandStaff and location are very good. You can reach main landmarks of Almaty by 10-mins walk. Place was quite cozy and clean. Wifi connection and facilities are really good too. To be honest, i didnt expect that good compare to price! It has a good terrace to chill out.
TurkeyGreat location just at the center of Almaty and budget friendly option for the travellers.
