This homey place feels more like a boutique hotel than a guesthouse. Rooms are indi-
vidually styled, some with traditional Mongolian furniture. It has a cosy atmosphere but
some parts can be a little dim. Location is central and quiet. It's run by the Lotus Chil-
dren's Centre, an NGO that helps orphaned children, and it employs young Mongolians
who used to live in the orphanage. An annex, in an apartment away from the centre,
takes overflow if the main block is full.

US$6/20; ) This bright, family-run guesthouse offers spacious dorms and private
rooms across a couple of stairwells. The facilities are very clean and well maintained and
it occupies a cute downtown location. There's the usual guesthouse services including
wi-fi, a jam-and-toast breakfast and countryside tours. On the downside, there is just one
bathroom, which means waiting in line in the morning. Travellers also report pressure to
book a tour through the guesthouse.

US$8/20/22/25; ) This well-established and central guesthouse has several rooms
stretching around a Soviet-era apartment block. It's clean and there are plenty of bath-
rooms but the common room is a bit small and the place does get very busy in summer.
Owner Bobbi has plenty of experience in helping backpackers with logistics and trip
planning. Midnight curfew and 10am check-out are minuses, free early morning pick-up
from the train station a plus. Skip the meagre breakfast and try one of the nearby cafes.
Enter from the back of the building, behind Golomt Bank.
