Blue Sky Hotel & Tower

The best thing about this hotel is its location. Centrally situated at the bottom of the main Chinggis Khan Square most of the city's main sights are in easy walking distance. Overall, it's a nice hotel but don't expect 5* star luxury.

We wanted to make use of the pool & sauna, but the pool was so dirty we changed our mind, and after we complained they closed it for maintenance. Generally the place is in need of a revamp. The Sky Lounge rooftop bar is supposed to be impressive, however we weren't allowed in as it is occasionally closed for private functions, so if you wish to go (like we did - actually it was the principle reason for choosing the hotel) check with them before booking that it will be available for guests (they won't inform you otherwise). The staff seemed surprised by our dissatisfaction but finally after seeing the general manager he was very understanding of our disappointment and went out of his way to make a gesture, we were given a small private room with views of the city above the rooftop lounge and told we could order whatever we liked from the menu. Just a shame we had to make a fuss for it.
