Felt like a Scandinavian style hotel in the middle of mongolia. Friendly staff, comfortable room and good food from the restaurant. Sat out the front having a few beers enjoying the peace.

Gaya is very well-connected. She make sure you were taken care of from the moment you get off the bus. She gives you a ride to her place. If you were going to Kharkhorin, then this is the place you want to be.

I really liked this guesthouse. It was about $22 usd a night, pretty reasonable, and the place was super clean, modern, and comfy. The bathroom was actually the best I’ve used in Mongolia, spacious, good water pressure, and they even provided shampoo, lotion, and soap. The owner and his daughter both speak English, so communication was easy. The owner was super friendly and welcoming, he is a kind, gentle dad. His daughters were really sweet too. The meals the daughter cooked were amazing, so tasty and filling! The dining ger was really pretty, and breakfast was included in the room price. Dinner costs extra, but it’s totally worth it (especially since there aren’t many restaurants nearby). Being able to eat here was a big plus. One of the moments that really touched me was when I was about to go for a walk alone up the hill behind the guesthouse, and the oldest daughter suddenly called out and said her younger brothers could go with me. They didn’t speak much English, but they were so friendly and chatty that I didn’t feel alone at all. From the hill, you get a full view of Kharkhorin, the Orkhon River reflecting the sunset, and endless grasslands stretching beyond the town. The whole scene, covered in the evening glow, was just stunning. This place used to be the capital of the Mongol Empire back in Genghis Khan’s time, and as a World Heritage Site, it really feels like a place where time has stood still. The next morning, the two brothers even played chess with me. They were super smart and quick, while I took forever to make my moves and felt kinda bad, I was honestly really happy and thankful they wanted to play with me. I only have one younger brother and we don’t see each other much, so I really admire the close bond this family has. All the kids were adorable, it just felt so warm and homey!🥹 The next day, the owner gave me a ride to town, and when I later realized I forgot my plug, he even brought it over to me. I really appreciated it!

Friendly and helpful staff. Very good breakfast. We particularly enjoyed the throat singing, Mongolian dancing, and horse head fiddle concert after dinner.

Great place, the girl at the front desk is really nice and explains everything about the city and hotel. The breakfast is really good and it has a restaurant too.

Clean, spacious and comfortable room
