Great hotel overall The room is well appointed, bed very comfortable, strong shower; all amenities are there. Lovely breakfast and then you can have some Indian food for dinner in their restaurant. Location is convenient, central and about 10-15 min walk to the seaside. I was very pleased with the ladies working there, both at reception and in the back office. They were kind and efficient at the same time.

I think the male receptionists need more training in customer service: no smiles, no “welcome” or “thank you for the stay”; I also had one request where the receptionist flatly refused to help but his colleague (a lady from the back office) solved it for me.

I recently stayed twice at the Hotel Dostyk (3 nights in total). The hotel is lovely, modern, beautifully decorated and with a great location for Aktau, near many good restaurants (a Georgian one in particular). Our second stay was faultless, comfy room, excellent restaurant food ( a solid appealing Indian buffet), Front Desk staff always ready to assist on everything. Well managed and deservedly recommended property.

The first stay was good although several minor things did not seem to work too well (communication with some staff, tv, safety box...). They improved on everything on the second stay 😀

I stayed in this hotel twice and would gladly stay again. It’s central in terms of location; high quality of sleep; great breakfast. Good WiFi and other amenities. Even when busy it does not feel crowded.

I arrived early and the man working at reception was not very welcoming. Just asked me what date my reservation was for and told me “you are too early”. I guess it would be nice to be offered a cup of tea maybe :).

I had a fascinating stay at this hotel in Aktau! I stayed with my grandmother, mother and niece. The location is perfect, making it easy to explore the surroundings, especially for elder people. The room was spotless, with new and shiny furniture in a modern style that added an extra touch of comfort. The breakfast offerings were delicious and varied, providing a great start to each day. What truly stood out was the staff's exceptional service; they were attentive and made our visit even more enjoyable.

It is a great stay for Indians in a place like Aktau because the Restaurant Manager and Chef are Indian and they will serve you very good Indian Veg-Non Veg meal in Lunch and dinner, if you pre-order. However, they have limited options for vegetarians in their Breakfast. Except the Indian restaurant manager, no other staff in the restaurant understand English. I faced this problem in almost all hotels in Kazakhstan.

Nice hotel, it was very clean, comfortable and quiet. It has very nice Indian restaurant on the first floor.

The menu of the restaurant doesn’t contain any meal for kind, it would be good to have something like soup at least.

I had a great stay at this hotel. The staff were welcoming, friendly, and professional and the service was very attentive. I was offered an upgrade which was a great gesture and the breakfast was very tasty. The sleeping quality was excellent and the room temperature was perfect.

I can't name anything. It was a perfect stay. I wish I stayed there for longer.

We are a family of 7 people. We booked for 2 suites room and they give us extra room. The reception name Alina she so kind and very helpful, the manager is kind too. The most important thing is that the in-house cafe is super delicious it's really feel authentic Indian food... thumbs up to the chef.

The staff was very helpful. We had to leave at 4am to catch the early flight, the staff was kind enough to prepare breakfast boxes for us to take away.

The hotel was fully booked the whole time during our four-night stay, so we couldn’t get two rooms on the same floor.

Welcoming and helpful staff, always happy to support visitors (good English level also) - hotel is brand new, bedroom was well configured and breakfast is quite good. Hotel is at 10mn by walk from sea side but it's an enjoyable one (big square in between with only few roads and cars).
