Hilton Astana is brand’s debut in Kazakhstan

Hilton Astana, the first Hilton Hotels & Resorts property in Kazakhstan, has now opened, with a futuristic design to match its location in the ultra-modern capital city.

The 253-room hotel offers a wide range of amenities including unrivalled event space and a state-of-the-art spa. It is located Hilton next to Silk Way, the largest shopping mall in Astana, with excellent transportation links to top attractions in the city, and less than 10 kilometres from Astana International Airport which has direct flights to a range of destinations including Moscow, Dubai, London and China.

Andreas Lackner, regional head, brand management, Hilton, said: “Hilton is committed to providing our signature hospitality in the places that matter most to travellers, which is why we are so pleased to introduce the brand’s first hotel in Astana.

“Astana recently hosted Expo 2017, raising its profile internationally and setting the scene for the city for years to come. While already recognised as a key business and MICE destination, travellers to Astana can also marvel at the city’s impressive futuristic architecture and visit a range of cultural attractions including the Palace of Peace and Reconciliation, the Independence Palace and the Batirek Monument.”

Hilton Astana has more than 4,000 square metres of events space, comprising nine meeting rooms and a ballroom that can host up to 900 people. The hotel is also close to the Expo’s main congress hall that can host up to 5,000 people. The property also features Hilton’s signature eforea spa, which at over 1,900 square metres is one of the city’s largest spas, featuring an indoor swimming pool, 24-hour fitness centre, nine treatment rooms, saunas and a Turkish bath.

The hotel offers a range of dining options, including Cloud 9, the only hotel rooftop bar with a terrace in Astana, The Park Kitchen, an all-day dining venue, and the Axis lobby lounge, which serves coffee, drinks and snacks.
