Fantastic hotel in a perfect location, there are heaps of eating choices within minutes, my favorite was directly opposite the road that the hotel is on, delicious local food (added a photo of the restaurant) Not too far to walk to the center and the GANDANTEGCHENLING temple. A lot of small supermarkets close as well. The staff are excellent, 5-star service.

I’ve come to UB a few times and stayed in different hostels. Overall, this one was really good. It’s newly renovated so every thing was brand new, super clean, and spacious. Fast internet, comfy beds, large well equipped kitchen , having a private bathroom in the room was a big plus. The hosts were very kind and helpful, thanks again to the lovely staff. For the price it’s honestly a great deal for what you get.

The place was magnificent in every respect and the owner is not only accommodating but extremely helpful. I am a seasoned traveller and I have hardly had such a great experience in an accommodation at this price range with this level of comfort. I strongly recommend it!

Wake up and enter the white grassland snow country. Ulaanbaatar is a vibrant young city, but it is also congested, and the streets are full of Toyotas honking their horns. The cantaloupe that I carried all the way from Chinese to Ulaanbaatar was ripe and shared with the landlord Bolod and his family, as well as the Russian brother. Feel a melon that makes sense. Bolod and his wife were very welcoming, friendly and kind. They all speak English, Russian and other languages. Bolod also had his son drive and took me to see the statue of Genghis Khan and visit the local herders. The steppe world is completely covered with heavy snow, and yurts can be inhabited. The newborn lamb is dressed up, the dog is more like a steppe mastiff with its long hair, the mare's milk wine is super strong, and I am wearing a cashmere Mongolian robe. It's so warm. I wanted to go to Mongolian dinner in the evening, but my Russian roommate treated me to frozen lard and potato offal, saying it was a traditional Russian delicacy. I had a very good memory here.

Quiet and peaceful place, almost the city center, hotel in a converted apartment. You live as if at home. Cleanliness, low cost, and comfort make this option almost ideal for me. If I return to Ulaanbaatar, I will choose this accommodation option.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

Lovely new hostel with a nice balcony and kitchen/sitting area, good wifi, and great location, just a few minutes' walk from Sukhbaatar Square and various museums. Ama (sp?) is super helpful, with advice about things to do in UB and beyond, and managed to get me a ticket for the opening ceremony of Naadam festival, too. Thank you, it was really fun.

Impeccably clean, and safe. The women who attend to the hostel keep it in perfect condition. I was most impressed with the constant cleaning of the bathrooms, because there are only 2 toilets and showers for a the whole facility, but they cleaned it after every use. This hostel is in the tourist district, very safe, and relatively quiet. All museums in a 10 minute walking distance. Mature guests, family friendly, business travelers stayed as well. A nice environment. The hostel operators offer excursions as well.
