CHEVY CHASE, Maryland,
June 23, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- The
Ritz-Carlton, the legendary luxury hotel brand, opened the doors of
its first hotel in the capital of Kazakhstan. With the capital city an emerging
destination for business and leisure travelers, The Ritz-Carlton,
Astana elevates the local hospitality landscape with exceptional
service, elegant accommodations, and commitment to creating
memorable experiences.
"We are excited to be launching The Ritz-Carlton in this
flourishing capital and can't wait to help our guests discover what
made The New York Times call
Astana one of the 52 places to visit in 2017," said Hervé Humler,
President and Chief Operating Officer, The Ritz-Carlton Hotel
Company. "With the highly anticipated international exposition,
Astana EXPO-2017, expected to draw 3 to 4 million visitors to the
city this summer, there is no better time to introduce The
Ritz-Carlton, Astana and showcase this as a destination with a
bright future."
Located in the Talan Towers, The Ritz-Carlton, Astana, owned by
Verny Capital Group, joins an elite business center and luxury
shopping gallery to create the city's first high-end, mixed-use
complex, creating a new type of lifestyle and luxury experience in
the region. With a unique yet graceful design, The Ritz-Carlton,
Astana is also a natural extension of the square around the nearby
Bayterek Tower, a monument and symbol of modern
Astana.
The Ritz-Carlton, Astana features 157 guest rooms, including 32
suites, and 27 residences, all of which offer panoramic city views,
thoughtful design that celebrates the beauty of the capital city,
and spacious layouts. A Club Lounge on the 14th floor
provides guests with an additional sanctuary, private check-in,
dedicated Club Concierge, and culinary presentations throughout the
day.
"Much like the monument it overlooks, The Ritz-Carlton, Astana
represents the future of Astana and acknowledges the city's growing
power and prominence," added Humler. "By bringing The
Ritz-Carlton's legacy of service together with Kazakhstan's traditional culture of
hospitality, our guests will feel truly at home in this city as
they experience all that Astana has to offer as it comes into its
own."
Three new restaurants showcase gastronomic excellence from
around the world and will delight guests and local residents alike.
Adjacent to the main entrance, Өzen offers the finest selection of
organic produce, while Mökki, an all-day dining restaurant, offers
guests a sense of comfort. The selection is completed with Selfie
Astana, the newest creation of the Russian-based restaurant group
White Rabbit Family, which will offer masterful cuisine to
accompany the stunning city view from the 18th floor.
A peaceful spa retreat will also offer an array of treatments
and spa packages that include seasonal offerings and signature
treatments, all of which are chosen for their holistic qualities.
Spa amenities include a dry and steam sauna and swimming pool, with
a fitness studio adjacent to the spa. Additionally, The
Ritz-Carlton, Astana will help create unforgettable meetings and
events by offering luxurious settings paired with exceptional
cuisine and personalized service. The hotel's 1000 square meter
ballroom, well-appointed meetings rooms, and modern business and
banquet amenities are well suited to accommodate a diverse range of
meetings and events.
