RENAISSANCE AKTAU HOTEL

A little way from the city center, this gigantic, modern and luxurious hotel is just a stone's throw from the beach, and that's its main attraction. The rooms are, of course, beyond reproach, and the establishment offers a whole range of top-of-the-range services (fitness, sauna, lounge bar...). Large outdoor swimming pool and restaurant with terrace overlooking the sea. If it weren't for the oil companies and glitzy architecture, it would be almost romantic. What's more, the views of the Caspian Sea in the evening are truly breathtaking.
