Mary Hotel

Beautifully decorated public areas and nice room with a great comfy bed. Kettle provided in room didn't work and anyway, what is the point of providing a kettle and cups without any tea coffee or water? Half used toiletries in the bathroom and had to get advise on how to get the toilet to flush! (You have to push the two buttons at the same time). Breakfast was awful. Plastic meat, cheese, bread and jam and fried eggs. No fruit, yoghurt or salad available despite a Russian speaking friend asking and there being a market just over the road. How much would it cost to cut up a couple of melons? Just little things that could be sorted very easily.

Everything worked but it should not be considered a luxury hotel. After being there a while, you could tell this was owned by the government. It lacked a lot of things westerners would consider necessary but, it did the job. All the staff were polite and helpful.

Отель не рекомендуем. Заехали, постели все рваные. На полу ковровое покрытие в многочисленных пятнах от всевозможных (даже страшно подумать) постояльцев. Розетки не работают - не смогли подзарядить телефоны. Во все отеле пахнет сигаретами. Завтрака нам не хватило. Ответ оставил нас просто в недоумении : "у нас просто сегодня много жильцов". Чашки ВСЕ битые, скатерти все грязные, музыка на телефонах у обслуживающего персонала орёт. Персонал играет в карты прямо на ресепшене. Категорически не рекомендуем. Лучше остановится в другом месте.

Great looking building with a imposing entrance this hotel is flawed by being badly run. My bathroom had worn out towels, no toiletries, a mounting for the shower that could not be used as it span around and cracked floor tiles from the water that leaked from the shower. The bed was 2 singles pushed together so the light switch and socket were behind one of the pillows. For breakfast I was given a cling film coved plate with some bread, jam, meat butter and a long life cake along with another plate of 2 fried eggs. The staff all appeared to be totally disinterested as if the guests were unimportant.

... and it isn't the result of an oversight in the service: water really isn' provided. Particularly deplorable feature, in a substantially desert climate like that of almost all of Turkmenistan. If you ask for bottles at the lobby, you will be directed to the hotel bar, where you are forced to pay for the water. And you have to pay cash, it isn't possible to charge water to your room bill. Furthermore, the wi-fi connection in the rooms has been particularly weak. Too bad, because for everything else the hotel resembles the others we experienced in Turkmenistan. Monumental (if not sumptuous) common areas, clean and flawless rooms and bathrooms. The level of breakfast is sub-standard. But this is a problem that I have experienced as generalized in Turkmenistan.

The hotel is ok for one night but quite a few things don't work very well. The property appears quite fancy from the outside, but inside isn't so functional. The heating is out of control and uncomfortable in the rooms. There is no AC so there's really nothing to do about it. The bathroom has quite a bit of mold growing in the showers, and the bathroom flooded with each use. There is a massive restaurant, but I didn't see any customers. Breakfast is a pre-made plastic-wrapped plate of cheese and sausage roll. Beers are expensive (for local prices) at 40 manat. It's a good location though for walkability to local attractions, and a park nearby.
