A good hotel, but service is really poor, they even dont take you a taxi, international phone was not working, Internet connection in lobby and didnt work 50% of times. elevators 20% of times out of service. More

Definitely an above average experience we would say for Four Points by Sheraton Ak Altin Plaza. Isn’t it a rather long name? Never mind! We hoped even the services and overall accommodation would make an experience to recall for long. Eh, it was not the case, still not bad anyway. We called it an above average experience. Agreed that our... More

We stayed there for four nights. The room (7th floor) was good. It was clean. However I think it is time for a refurbishment, specially the fabric furniture like sheets and chairs. The furniture are two chairs, a round table, LCD TV, fridge, two side lamps and a stand lamp and three cloth drawers. The bathroom has a bath and... More

I have read some of the cynical reviews posted and must respond. The hotel is average at best in comparison to easily accessable countries. However, here in Turkmenistan it is of a high standard. The country does not have freedom of movement for visiting foreignors but this should not hinder your travel objectives as "Club Med" type visas are not... More

The hotel is nearby airport and therefore convenient to get to. I stayed here with a friend of mine for two days. The room was nice, clean and comfortable with good air conditioning. It had some basic amenities like furniture, good beds, a mini fridge, a television, etc. The bathroom was clean and decent. The services rendered and the staffs... More

My friend and I laughed so hard when we read one of the earlier reviews - it was priceless so we were bracing ourselves for an interesting experience. Given that generally Turkmenistan was so surreal, the hotel let us down on providing this experience. We stayed here twice and had rooms on the seventh and sixth floors. The seventh room... More

I read the reviews before arriving so wasn't surprised by anything that happened at this hotel. On this business trip I was traveling with a female colleague of mine and we had rooms opposite each other on the same floor. My room was ok. It's definitely a run down hotel and the rooms do not reflect the star rating awarded... More

I survived my 15 night stay without difficulty but cannot say that the Ak Altin is anything special. First of all, it is not a Sheraton, so do not plan to earn any Starwood points. Second, the hotel is near the airport. You cannot walk to the center of the city from here. Neighborhood bars and restaurants are really okay... More

If you're thinking of going to Turkmenistan, it's probably because you are on an all-expenses paid junket "conference" at the behest of The Great President for Life Poopypants II. Or, you might THINK you are going to an "academic" or "industry" conference. Don't kid yourself. As you will soon find out, you are being invited to be used as a... More
