Almaty Backpackers

Very social, young backpackers hostel where you can meet people quickly. Would recommend for budget or young travelers

Facilities were very basic, only 2 functioning toilets for the entire hostel. Minimal kitchen materials for cooking.

It is a good place to socialize

The shower area could be improved

One of the most fun hostels I’ve stayed at in Central Asia. It has a very social and relaxed vibe.

There are only 3 toilets and 3 showers for a lot of guests

Booked the 10 bed dorm and the area was spacious to pack your bags. Big outdoor area to sun your laundry.

A party / social hostel where every night there are people gathering outside and can be talking quite loudly. The staff also joins them occasionally. The beds have no privacy cover. It looks like an army bunk. There are no bathrooms on the 3rd floor so have to go down 1 floor for the toilets which is quite inconvenient and can get quite crowded. The kitchen is one of the worst I seen. It is located in the basement and has only one small table. There is no distilled water available as well. One of the staff was video calling in the kitchen was talking loudly. Couldn't enjoy our dinner in peace. The young staffs wasn't so friendly Location was quite off central but there are eateries around.
