    Just one socket, and in an inconvenient position. Plenty of superpolluting single-use plastic packaged toiletries.

    Location, price.

    A bit expensive, you can find the same service for less. Hot water is not available when there are few guests, and I don't know if you can trust the water purifiers in the halls.

    The hotel is very well situated near to the city center and Novotel. The surroundings are relatively quiet. The room is large, very clean and has everything you need for a good stay. Access is not easy, but this is normal for Ulaanbaatar, so you'll have to trust your driver. You can find plenty of restaurants in the area. The breakfast is good.

    Located in a central aerea of the town. The room was very comfortable and clean. There is no lift to the upper floors and the restaurant was closed for dinner, but breakfast was very good.

    It is in a quirky location behind a carpark but geographically it’s in a fantastic part of the city

    Incredible value for money - having stayed in a few hotels in UB this was by far the cleanest, freshest and most comfortable! Sensational value for money.

    We stayed a total of 5 nights, 2 at the start and 3 to finish our tour. The rooms were never made up. We had to ask to get the garbage taken out and to get fresh towels. The beds were never made and the floor was never vacuumed.

    The food was fine, breakfast was good. The location is excellent. The staff are very helpful and friendly.

    Could be nice, but a very frustrating experience
    • Leisure trip
    • Solo traveller
    • Standard Double Room
    • Stayed 1 night

    It's a very chaotic setup. When we arrived we were told that the room we had reserved was occupied by somebody else, and we had to insist that the hotel fulfil our reservation. We were given a twin room instead of the double that we had reserved. Then the keycard to the room didn't work, and we had to go back to reception 3 times to try different keycards until one eventually worked. We then tried to go for dinner but the receptionist ran after us saying she needed us to give back the keycard because it was the master card for the hotel. Staff were trying to be helpful but it was a very frustrating experience. Providing access to the room is really the most very basic requirement for a hotel and this seemed to be a challenge for them. Also, had to argue with the staff about the exchange rate. Our reservation was denominated in USD, and we were happy to pay in either USD or the Mongolian currency equivalent based on the xe.com exchange rate, but hotel said that their 'policy' required us to pay in Mongolian currency but at a higher exchange rate. I told the staff it's absurd to think that they can simply decide which exchange rate they'd like, and they eventually agreed to use the correct rate. Also, shower in some rooms is weak and cold (though we stayed one night in a different room and shower was better).

    Rooms are largely clean and have old-school character. Good WiFi. The breakfast buffet was surprisingly high quality.

    The hotel is completely run down, hole in the door, ripped walls, messed up sheets, see pictures. Bad smell No hot water during three days No Air Conditioning Noise from construction in front of building

    Not much to be honest, the personnel was nice at the beginning but in the end more and more indifferent and unfriendly. Breakfast very basic but still ok
