Posted on Jul 18, 2026|Yun Lv Small Scenic View Yurt
ChaojidianrongThis yurt is the closest one to the lake. The moment you push open the yurt door, the stunning blue of Sayram Lake just fills your view. Waking up to watch the sunrise turn the lake golden, and then in the evening, seeing the sunset disappear behind the distant mountains – every moment feels like living inside a painting.
The owner's warmth touched our hearts right from the moment he picked us up at the park entrance. The yurt itself was clean and cozy, but the most impressive part was the food. The 'Da Pan Ji' (big plate chicken) was incredibly tender and flavorful, and the portion was so generous it could feed three people easily. The lamb was fresh and delicious, and the prices were incredibly reasonable for a scenic area. At night, wrapped in a blanket, watching the stars, with only the sound of the lake waves – this kind of immersive experience, where the view is right outside your door and you feel completely at home, makes it definitely worth another visit.

Posted on Jun 7, 2026|Elegant Triple Room
NiniaichinaigedaThis is the guesthouse I booked when I went to Sayram Lake with my parents. The environment exceeded my expectations, and my parents were very satisfied. The location was easy to find, parking was convenient, and there were guesthouses all around. I was also quite lucky; we even caught a party event in the square next door, with thousands of people having a bonfire and dancing – it was so much fun! We booked a triple room, with each person having their own bed, and the beds were very comfortable. The owner and the receptionist were very friendly and even helped with our luggage – thumbs up! 👍 After comparing several places, I think this one was great value for money! Unfortunately, we got back too late yesterday and just video chatted with my friends, so I didn't take any pictures.

The yurt is located at the north gate of Sailimu Lake, with a direct view of the lake. The owner will drive to the north gate to pick you up. The yurt is large, and even in the rain, it feels much safer than camping. The heating is provided by a charcoal stove. Wearing short sleeves is recommended for the initial heating, but it can get a bit chilly later in the night when the stove runs out. Ask the owner to prepare some charcoal, which you can refill if you wake up. The owner and his wife are very kind. They offer a great place to dine, giving you a unique and authentic experience. I didn't have time to take a photo of the lamb skewers after finishing them, but I did take a photo of the stir-fried lamb, which seems to be braised. The lamb was delicious, and the skins of the lambs, freshly slaughtered that morning, were still on the ground. I highly recommend staying here for the night view and sunset, and it's also convenient for waking up early to watch the sunrise and driving around the lake. The grass is full of voles, sheep, cows, horses, and other small animals.

I was traveling with my parents, and I specifically asked for a quiet room. However, we were placed next to a room where people played mahjong all night, and my elderly parents barely got any sleep. I thought the room was 40 square meters, but it turned out to be 40 square meters spread across two floors (a duplex), and the owner told me it was 'usable area,' not 'room area.' This is the first time I've ever heard of a hotel listing 'usable area' – I'm speechless! On the positive side, the staff's attitude was quite good, and the hotel is very close to the scenic area with lots of snacks nearby. We checked out a bit late after exploring, and they even extended our checkout time for free, which was nice. It's also very close to Sayram Lake, making it super convenient for watching the sunrise.

y3nch1ngWe booked the guest rooms, which are actually a “盲盒” concept where you get whichever room is available upon check-in. Luckily, we were upgraded to wooden cabins with two rooms each. Since I booked 3 rooms, they arranged 2 wooden cabins for us.
Each cabin came with two independent bedrooms with attached bathrooms, plus a shared living room. We absolutely loved it because we could gather and spend time together in the living room. We even had steamboat there one evening, which made the stay feel extra cozy, lovely, and convenient.
There was also a huge open area in front of the cabins, but unfortunately the wind during our stay was too strong for us to sit outside. In the evening, sheep were grazing right outside our unit. On good weather days, you can even see Sayram Lake and the snow mountains directly from the cabin, which was really beautiful.
The cabins are spread across a large area, so you do need to walk to your unit, but the pathways are properly paved and easy to walk on. Our cabin was about 200m from the car park.
Special shoutout to the staff, Hemu and Dan Ni Er, who were extremely helpful. They used their small transport buggy to help move our luggage during check-in and check-out. Since we were travelling with elderly family members who had difficulty walking, they also kindly gave them rides to and from the cabin, which we truly appreciated.
Highly recommended for those looking for a different and more memorable experience compared to a normal hotel stay.

The owner is incredibly generous and helpful. He made us feel like part of the family throughout our stay. He shared the rich history and culture of his ancestors with us; he simply drew us into his world. It was incredible! He sang songs for us, took us to collect spring water, and on our last evening he came round with some drinks and just had a chat with us. We came from Poland to meet new people and experience a new culture, and we got so much more than that. Thank you for a wonderful time!
As others have already mentioned, don’t try to walk up the path from the road. The guard who’s there won’t let you :)

Sailimu Lake stayed for two days, and it was convenient to travel in the visitor center. I have to say that this decision is too wise! Sailimu Lake is beautiful every day during the day, and it is very quiet at night.
The room is a very warm little loft, everything is very clean, stayed for two nights and slept very well, the room has floor heating and air conditioning, don't worry about temperature problems.
There are places to eat nearby on foot, but the scenic spot is really nothing delicious. The boss also has a cute puppy, we will miss it here.

Guest UserThis hotel is a great choice for visiting Sayram Lake. The view from the window is of windmills and grasslands – absolutely stunning and soothing. The rooms are clean and tidy, the service is warm and attentive, and the amenities are complete. It's convenient for watching the sunrise and sunset, and you can see the starry sky just above – what a beautiful place!

Staying in a yurt at Sayram Lake is an absolute treat! Not only do you get to witness the stunning golden sunrise over the mountains, but you also get to savor incredibly authentic Kazakh cuisine. The owner's hand-grabbed lamb, milk tea, and roasted meat are all phenomenal – so fresh and delicious. Enjoying a warm, home-style meal after watching the sunrise just fills you with so much joy! 🥩 The yurt's location is fantastic; step right out to breathtaking lake and snow-capped mountain views. After dinner, a stroll along the lake, with the breeze blowing, is pure bliss! The accommodation is also very clean and comfortable, and the service is incredibly thoughtful. Highly recommend!
