Stopover near railway station
The "Astra" sign was a bit hidden at night, it looked like the taxi had brought me instead to the Connaught. Ah no, it's QonaQui, Kazakh for hotel, it's the right place. Friendly efficient staff, good location 200 m from Almaty-2 main railway station. Boxy, somewhat worn business hotel, thin walls, noisy mobile conversations in corridors. But clean, comfy & inexpensive, fine for a short stay before travelling on.

Easy access to the train station
I stayed at the Astra hotel for 3 nights in early June 2013. The hotel is very convenient to the train station which is great if you are coming from or going to Astana. My room was very quiet despite facing the road. Breakfast was good but only from 8 -10 am. Internet access was good. Overall the hotel lived up to the reviews I have read. The only problem with the hotel is the distance to various sites you might want to visit. But if you like walking, then Almaty has an astounding amount of trees lining all the boulevards. I have never seen a city with so many trees. Walking was quite pleasant despite the volume of cars in the city.
