Almaty, Kazakhstan
Samal Resort & SPA
A Mountain Retreat on the Edge of Almaty
Discover a quieter side of Almaty at Samal Resort & SPA, where mountain surroundings, comfortable accommodation, wellness facilities, and dining come together for a restorative stay near the Medeu area.
A Quieter
Side of Almaty
The city falls away quickly on the road into the foothills. Here the air cools, spruce forest climbs the slopes, and the peaks of the Zailiysky Alatau are never far from view.
Samal sits in this landscape, listed next to the Medeu area, which makes it a natural base for days spent skating, walking, or riding up toward Shymbulak. When the day is done, the pool, sauna, and restaurant are waiting indoors.

Dining at Samal
The resort's own Samal restaurant brings together Middle Eastern, local, and European cooking. Mornings begin with a buffet breakfast, and brunch, lunch, and dinner are also served.
Explore the Mountains
Medeu is known for its high-altitude skating rink and mountain views. Further up the valley, Shymbulak opens onto alpine slopes that change character with every season, from winter snow to green summer meadows.
Hospitality and Comfort
The front desk is open around the clock, so arrivals after a long journey and questions late in the evening are both covered. Room service, baggage storage, and a bar add to the ease of the stay.
Free Wi-Fi is available in public areas, and free private parking is offered at a nearby location. A shuttle can be arranged for an additional charge. See Guest Information for policies and details.
