See your selected apartment
The panorama on our website shows the lake and surroundings, not a guaranteed view from your window. Every apartment is 55 m²; its floor level and photographs are listed on its page. Ask us about the view or route to the lake before choosing.
Tell us when you plan to arrive
For Airbnb bookings, check-in is after 14:00 and checkout before 12:00. Agree on timing with us for a direct booking. Discuss an early arrival or late departure in advance. Selecting available dates does not confirm a reservation.
The lake, bus station and metro are different landmarks
Sairan Lake is a place for a waterside walk, approximately 5 minutes on foot from our apartments. Sairan Bus Station is a separate landmark on Tole Bi Street, approximately a 15-minute walk away. Sairan Metro Station is on Abay Avenue between Brusilovsky and Tlendiev streets. Neither walking estimate refers to the metro. Use the full destination name when ordering a taxi; walking times depend on your pace, route and entrance.
Booking a short stay by the lake
Browse your chosen apartment’s photos and select the full stay in its calendar. Include adults and children and tell us your sleeping requirements. If the apartment is unavailable for part of the stay, the website may suggest a split stay with a move; our manager confirms these arrangements. For a single-apartment booking, follow the matching Airbnb listing or contact us directly. Confirm the price, availability and conditions before booking.
Two ideas for a walk from River City
Start close to your apartment. These are walking ideas, not turn-by-turn directions: ask us about the exit from the complex and access to the waterfront when you check in.
Your first evening by the lake
River City → Sairan Lake → a walk along the shore → back to your apartment. The lake is about 5 minutes away on foot; choose a walking distance that suits you. Our website panorama shows the surroundings, not a view from an apartment window.
Lake on the map →A short riverside break
River City is beside the Bolshaya Almatinka River. For a break from work, choose an accessible riverside walking section and return the same way. The waterfront near MEGA in our city guide is a different location, not the access beside your apartment.
Neighbourhood and arrival →Walking times are approximate and depend on your pace and route. Consider weather, lighting and path access before leaving; keep children away from the water’s edge.
