3-Star Hotels in Ulaanbaatar

Positives: The location was walkable - there is an error to say it’s 20km from main square - it’s 2km away and walkable so location is good. Next to a small mall, food and convenience shop 24x7. It’s super new and everything is so clean and neat. Hot showers. Clean sheets. Aircond in room which is controllable. Fridge. Disposable bath towel, face towel, toothbrush, in-shower shampoo, soap and even conditioner, hair-dryer! Helpful staff. Overall great great stay! And of yah - it’s on the 4th floor but there is a lift thankfully. Negatives: Breakfast is a plan shelf bun - nothing else. They sold my room despite me contacting them to say I was delayed for morning and not night check in and charged me for the day of the bed sold. But they were nice to find me alternative and refund the other. It would have been nice to get a compensation for the shock that the paid bed was not available. Overall staff nice and pleasant. The need to implement recycling cause they was very organized w disposable towels and slippers - but no recycling or attempt to reduce waste. Just need to go a bit green. Karaoke downstairs can be a bit loud.

I’ll start off just by saying I completely recommend this hostel! I booked it twice during my stay in Mongolia. The owner and her family are so sweet and kind. The hostel is brand new and incredibly clean. There’s a microwave, fridge, washer and dryer, utensils, and a hot/cold water dispenser. The place looks just like the pictures. As a solo female traveler, I felt incredibly safe here. The location was great too! It takes 30 minutes walking to get to Sukhbaatar Square and there are plenty of restaurants, cafes/bakeries, and shopping stores on the way there. There’s no AC, but I’m pretty sure the owner can provide a fan. It got warm inside the room, but never so hot that I felt I needed the fan since we had the windows open. I would absolutely book here again if I return to Mongolia. I recommend! :)

Stepping into this hotel felt like entering a real Mongolian house, complete with warm colors and thoughtful furniture choices that make every corner feel intentional. It’s not just a stay — it’s an experience. Comfortable, welcoming, and beautifully designed. Every room has its own detail: big TV, strong internet, clean shower, and even a kitchen area where you can cook. It genuinely feels like home. The landlord is incredibly accommodating and speaks English well. He’s friendly, easy to talk to, and can recommend hot places to visit in Ulaanbaatar. His hospitality makes the stay even better. The hotel is very close to the big local market, making it convenient to explore, buy essentials, or enjoy local food. The area feels lively yet safe. This hotel is perfect for travelers who want comfort, culture, and convenience all in one place. It’s a home away from home — warm, welcoming, and truly Mongolian.

This hostel offers a really comfortable stay. It has a total of 3 rooms with 12 beds, plus two shower cubicles and two toilet cubicles. They also provide a free washing machine, drinking water, basic coffee and tea bags for breakfast, and a fridge (where you can store leftover food temporarily). The owner is incredibly nice and genuinely helps with travel recommendations, offering assistance whenever possible. When I told the owner on WhatsApp that my flight was in the evening and asked if I could store my carry-on for a few hours after checking out, they readily agreed and said I could just leave it at the front desk. The location is excellent, with a KFC, Burger King, two CU convenience stores, and one GS25 nearby.

This guesthouse is kept very clean. I was really nervous about staying in a 6-person female-only dormitory for the first time. The guests were from various countries like France and Korea, and everyone was incredibly polite and kind. Those who left at 4 AM the next morning did so very quietly. The common areas were also very peaceful, with everyone speaking in hushed tones. I had a great time here too. The host was incredibly kind, and the hospitality was exceptional! A Korean woman invited me on a horseback riding tour the next day, which I felt was one of those unique dormitory experiences. Unfortunately, I had already experienced horseback riding and it was my departure day, so I had to decline. Google Maps shows it's a 25-minute walk to Sukhbaatar Square. I highly recommend it! The picture shows the host installing curtains. I've blurred their face as I wasn't sure if it was okay to upload it.

An Absolute Gem in Terelj! Modern Comfort Meets Breathtaking Wilderness 🏔️✨ If you are looking for a place in Gorkhi Terelj National Park that perfectly balances modern luxury, endless entertainment, and untouched natural beauty, Imperial Mount Resort is the ultimate choice. The Ultimate Host: The biggest highlight of our stay was the resort owner, who is incredibly friendly, accommodating, and speaks fluent English. Having a host you can communicate with easily in the wilderness is a game-changer. There is absolutely no need to join a rigid group tour; the owner quickly arranged a private driver for us (at our own expense) to visit nearby attractions like Turtle Rock and the Chinggis Khaan Statue Complex. It allowed us to customize our own itinerary and enjoy total freedom. The Vibe & Accommodation: The resort is beautifully designed with a sleek, modern wooden main building. We stayed in a Duplex Dome, which offered incredible space and a skylight for stargazing. The biggest luxury was the private, clean bathroom with excellent hot water and separate wet/dry areas—a rare find that completely redefines the typical Mongolian camping experience! The resort sits in a peaceful valley surrounded by majestic rock formations and roaming horses, giving it a dreamy, ”Little Switzerland” feel. Top-Notch Amenities (All Free!): Unlike other remote camps, this place keeps you entertained. Inside the main building, there is a designated Ping Pong room, a billiards table, and Karaoke rooms—all completely free to use! Outside, they have basketball court, volleyball court, a colorful children's playground, and BBQ pits. Incredible Food: The dining here blew us away. The included breakfast was fresh and relaxing. However, I highly recommend ordering their ala carte dinner. They serve a fantastic mix of Western and traditional Mongolian dishes. We ordered the grilled meat skewers with fries, a massive chicken Caesar salad, a comforting hot vegetable and meat stew, and traditional Mongolian Huushuur (deep-fried meat pastries) and Buuz (steamed dumplings). Everything was incredibly flavorful and hearty! Horseback Riding Nearby: There is a professional horse ranch run by a neighbor just 100 meters away. It costs 30,000 MNT per hour, which is very reasonable. Tip: If it's your first time riding, I highly recommend hiring a coach to guide you for safety. Verdict: 10/10. An unforgettable stay with amazing hospitality. I would come back in a heartbeat!

Central location, 15 mins walk can reach the main square and Shangri-la shopping mall. Price good. 2 restaurants inside hotel. Room spotless clean, spacious, well equipped. But pre-ordering of taxi to airport is not available and staff can only call on the spot when transport service needed (uber like apps in Mongolia is not user friendly). Please note that the ride between airport and city centre (where this hotel is located) can take 1.5 hr long as there's serious traffic jam around the city centre.

Room: The hotel needs to clean the room thoroughly, not just the bathroom but also the carpeted area, and fix the base board moldings as well as the loose heater radiator which supposed to be anchored down to the wall. Although the room is carpeted wall to wall, I can see bare floor on the edges and the corners. Location: Not good, but at the same time not bad either. All attractions are within $3~$4 away which is more than I paid in other ~stan countries nearby. May be it is a Mongoljan thing, but for me it wasn't easy to hire taxi cab unless I am willing to pay the extra tips. The front staffs: Very friendly and eager to provide help. Not all of them speaks English, but it is not a problem since they translator app is widely available. Furnitures in the room: Very old, and there are wears and tears every part of the furniture. I don't know the other rooms, but the room I was given was too small for the furnitures to be placed in first place. Overall: I wouldn't stay here again. The over all conditions of the hotel was not even close to the pictures shown in the trip.com app. If you select this hotel based on the pictures, you would be very disappointed if you are given the room I stayed in. Avoid Room 602 anyway you can.

First day i didn't get breakfast because the cooker was seak and i was asked to wait. Next day i was also told to wait. Finally i got a plate of soup. That is all . Even didn't get a spoon. There wasa plastic fork in a room. I don't like this type of mongolian soup. The hotel is old, many things are broken. In the whole - appropriate for staying. Now they are making a road not far away from hotel that is why there are traffic jams all day and all night. It took me about 80-90 minutes to get from central square to the hotel (it is about 9km)

great but breakfast is very bad just like a trash
