VERIFIED LUXURY
Here are five things to know about us:
1. We verify luxury. Our highly trained inspectors visit every property we rate, evaluating based on up to 900 objective criteria. Our hotel stays span a minimum of two nights.
2. We pay our own way. No one can buy a rating; all ratings are earned through our objective inspection process.
3. Our global team of inspectors are anonymous at all times, so they have the same experience as a typical guest.
4. While we inspect both service and facility, our Star Rating system emphasizes service because your experience at a hotel, restaurant or spa goes beyond looks — how it makes you feel is what you will remember most.
5. We started in1958 as Mobil Travel Guide, and we created the original Five-Star rating system for hospitality.

Setting foot inside The Ritz-Carlton, Almaty is like stepping into the clouds. Positioned between the 25th and 30th floors of the the 551-foot Esentai Tower, the tallest building in Kazakhstan, the hotel transports you to a world of sky-high luxury with sweeping views of the snow-capped Alatau Mountains from nearly every vantage point. The lobby welcomes with impeccably polished marble floors that reflect the natural light flooding in from the bountiful floor-to-ceiling windows. Towering crystal chandeliers add classic Ritz-Carlton elegance to the already-opulent space. Rooms are spacious sanctuaries adorned in calming earth tones, complete with freestanding tubs that are perfect for soaking in skyline vistas.
Downstairs, a wellness center boasts a tranquil Six Sense Spa, a sky-high pool and a well-equipped fitness studio. A handful of restaurants offer signature views alongside artistically prepared plates, though the digitally enhanced entertainment experience of Le Petit Chef at Seven Bar and Restaurant is a particular highlight.
