'The St. Regis Astana stands as a beacon of luxury in Kazakhstan's futuristic capital, where gleaming skyscrapers meet the vast Central Asian steppes.'
What's Special?
This ultra-modern hotel is perfectly positioned to explore Nur-Sultan's (formerly Astana) architectural marvels, including the iconic Bayterek Tower and the Norman Foster-designed Khan Shatyr Entertainment Center - the world's largest tent. The city was built from scratch in the 1990s as Kazakhstan's new capital, creating a stunning blend of traditional Kazakh culture and cutting-edge design.
WhatAHotel! Pro-Tip: Visit during the brief summer months (June-August) when temperatures are pleasant and the city's numerous parks and outdoor attractions are at their best - winters here can drop to -40°F!
Don't Miss
The nearby Hazret Sultan Mosque, one of Central Asia's largest mosques, and the Presidential Palace area with its golden government buildings. Take a sunset trip to Bayterek Tower's observation deck for panoramic views of this remarkable planned city rising from the Kazakh steppes.
