"Novel Hotel is a relatively modern resort on the shores of Lake Issyk-kul. It's location is at the far end of the strip of resorts centered around Cholpon-Ata. There are only a few General stores around the local Village and no restaurants, so eating options are restricted to the resort itself. The hotel restaurant, next to the swimming pool, provides good standard of food at a relatively expensive price.
The big advantage of Novel is its frontage to a pleasant and private beach that although...
"Host was super responsive and helpful. Unit was super nice. Comfortable, clean and great location to close restaurants, grocery store and tourist office where you pick up tourist permits.

"The hotel was great, the hosts were very helpful with recommendations and making sure we had everything we need. The room was in great condition with working A/C. The location was right next to the city beach which is great in the mornings."

"The standards have declined noticeably since I first visited this hostel many years ago. It's in a great location near the bus station and park so it is always busy, mostly with tourists from China, but the standards have gone down too much.Firstly, the bean bags in the common area smell very bad and likely haven't been washed in a long time if at all. After midnight you find Chinese guests sleeping on them all night...and the mens bathrooms are really bad. The soap in the toilets disappears from Chinese tourists that remove it to shower with and the toilets themselves are always dirty, once again due to the toilet habits of the Chinese tourists. There are no hangars available which is simple to solve and the staff conduct a room check at 09-10am when check-out is at 12? The general common area is still bright and spacious and the WiFi is decent.There is also free drinking water and complimentary towels, slippers and soap. Laundry is a very reasonable 500 too, though once again without clean bathroom facilities, this location has lost its appeal for me."
"Our favorite hotel in Dushanbe! Really nice place to stay. The breakfast was amazing and I love that they have free coffee/drinks and deserts available until late night. The staff were really nice and helpful. Clean rooms and very pretty lobby. Great location! There’s a great Turkish restaurant right outside the hotel, would recommend dining there as well. Walking distance from main square and parks. 10/10 recommend staying here!"
"Great hotel for a family stay! Everything was very clean, comfortable, and quiet. The hotel is brand new, which makes the stay even more pleasant. The location is perfect for exploring the area and traveling around. We really enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend this hotel!"
"Centrally located and all-around terrific, the Almaty Hotel was a great place to stay. The lobby is a bit underwhelming, but the room was very nice—clean, spacious, and comfy—and the breakfast bar (which even has a whole outdoor seating area) was absolutely stellar. Very nice hotel for a first-time-to-Almaty stay."
"Great location in Astana.
The staff were very friendly and helpful. Much better than orher 5 star hotels.
Very clean and modern.
We highly recommend this hotel."
"Great location, very close to all the main sites of Bishkek. Comfortable bed and spacious room. Breakfast was great. Foreign exchange at ground floor."
"Old soviet hotel bed was ok not the best shower was ok just hard to get in and out of, breakfast was average, the room aircon struggled to keep room comfortable. ( black out curtain help) only recieved about 5-6 tv channels. The lobby, reception and banquet room were live every night with weddings and parties. Cant complain about the beer prices at bar."
"This Holiday Inn is located in modern Tashkent city, convenientlylocated near the pedestrian streets directly behind the hotel with restaurants, cafés, etc.
I do feel though, that it was overpriced for what you get"
