Even our Kyrgyz friend was surprised to find such nice acommodation in Karakol. Really we couldn't have asked for more. The breakfast was fantastic and I liked that they had a guitar in the livingroom for guests to chill. The laundry room is also a huge plus for longer stays.

It was a clean and pleasant room, although the windows won’t open so it got a little stuffy. It’s a little far from city center but was a good stay nonetheless. Staff is helpful. No problems.

Excellent hotel! My friend and I were on our way to Son Kul as many tourists in Kochkor are. We had to leave really early that morning (05:30), but the hotel staff very kindly made us a very quick breakfast right before we went on the road which was going above and beyond. The amenities were well maintained and very very nice. Would recommend! There's also really good family small family businesses nearby that have incredible food. Would recommend and huge thank you to the Archa hotel staff!!!
