Hotel 2-Star di Khovsgol, Mongolia

Beautiful and quiet spot right on the lake. Stayed in a cozy yurt with a wood fire. The main building has a kitchen and dining room. There’s a small shop a few minutes walk away if you need any basics. Lots of roaming yaks and horses grazing in the area. Kayaks are available for free if you want to get out on to the lake, water is very clear and blue. Mountains are close as well if you want to go for a hike. There were several work away guests from various countries in the world that were easy to make friends with as a solo traveller. Owner and his brother were really hospitable and helped with booking activities and a car back to the city.

We arrived late at night after a 10-hour bumpy ride in a small van. The staff were very kind, and we had no issues checking in at 1 AM. The beds are comfortable, and the shower works perfectly. Everything was clean and tidy. Highly recommended.
