3-Star Hotels in Ulaanbaatar

Due to traffic jams right after the解除 of traffic restrictions on 'Car-Free Day' (Автомашингүй өдөр), it took me three and a half hours to get from the airport, causing me to miss the check-in time. However, the hotel handled it with a self-check-in and self-check-out process over the phone.

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! :)

A new, small hotel. The rooms are clean and comfortable, with air conditioning. The location is good if you're going to get your car serviced; there's a chassis repair shop, a Vietnamese welding shop, and car washes nearby. Inconveniences: there was no hairdryer in the room, and there was no hot water during our stay (due to the lack of water in the city). The central square is a 15-20-minute walk away. Breakfast was included in our reservation, but upon check-in, we were told we needed to pay an additional 30,000 tugr (~$8) per person. Tripcom later reimbursed us for this expense as a bonus.

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!

The hotel exceeded our expectations! We booked a room for 3 adults and 1 child on our way to Ulaanbaatar. It's not centrally located, but in a quiet area near the train station. This suited us perfectly since we had our own car, and a great bonus was the private parking right outside our window. There's also a CU convenience store nearby for essentials. The breakfast was simple but filling, with Chinese cuisine. It’s best to go around 8 AM, though the chef does replenish dishes later. Our room had a kitchenette, but no sink or necessary utensils, just a fridge (which we didn't use) and a kettle. The room itself was very spacious and clean. Housekeeping came every day. We either had no neighbors or the soundproofing was excellent, as we didn't hear a thing. The only downside was that the radiators were cold, so it was a bit chilly. However, since we were only there to sleep and have breakfast, we barely noticed it. I definitely recommend this hotel if you're looking for a good, quiet place with breakfast and private parking at a great price!

The room was better than I expected, and more than enough for one person. The window overlooked Sukhbaatar Square, and the carpet inside was very clean and had a distinct Mongolian feel. Drinking water, coffee, and all necessary toiletries were provided. The only slight drawback was that the heating didn't seem very strong, but everything else was perfect. Transportation was convenient, and there were several convenience stores downstairs.

The room was spacious and had everything necessary. Don't expect too much; it's a good place to simply spend the night and move on. A big plus is that the hotel is near the Dragon Bus Terminal and the 5 Shar stop, where almost all buses in Ulaanbaatar pass. For breakfast, there was only Mongolian lamb soup, which was brought to the room. This dish is an acquired taste, as it's quite greasy for breakfast. The boys at the reception only spoke Mongolian.

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.

great but breakfast is very bad just like a trash
