Classic, comfy, and elegant.
Very comfortable, classic hotel in the National Wrestling Federation area. Some staff were top tier, going above and beyond to make the stay great and easy; others probably need more training in hospitality but the good ones were excellent. Decent gym, okay spa (both operated by private companies). ...

Nice place with great staff. My only complaint (which is common in this part of the world) is that I could smell the drain in my room.

5/5 - Excellent

Like any city, it has its issues, the biggest probably being pollution. However, I visited the city by myself, a single woman; no one else was with me, and I never felt unsafe. I walked everywhere, even at night. Friendly people, very safe.
4/5 - Good
Ed
It's definitely worth going out on your own in the city, once you're comfortable. You'll need a tour to the national parks. I found the monuments and places to visit slightly underwhelming, but Mongolia has a low population. It's worth a 2nd look.
3/5 - Okay
Verified traveler
Very congested, too many cars and crazy traffic.
2/5 - Disappointing
B
Weird town. Horrible traffic. Unable to drain rainwater - like they did not put a sewer system under the roads. 2/3 of the cars seem to be the Toyota Prius.
4/5 - Good
Chris
Very chill, safe, and enjoyable city. Very walkable. Good variety of restaurants and nightlife.
