I received great hospitality. My late arrival was warmly accepted. The Dungan style meals are very filling, and perhaps the best breakfast that I've received in recent memory from any guest house. The room was comfortably equipped, and I was able to get some work done at a provided desk with strong wifi. Lastly, the host helped arrange a ride for me to visit the animal market on Sunday, which was an interesting cultural event.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

    The best hostel in Karakol. The owner is very friendly and can help with almost anything you need (booking yurts, permits and the like). Social vibe and some spaces to relax. One of the cleanest places I have visited in all of Kyrgyzstan.

    best hostel I've ever stayed in! the disposition of the rooms is thought to make people feel at ease, there's a garden, a living room, a big kitchen and even inside tents, if you feel up to trying it out! The hosts were extremely friendly and helpful, and even brought us to the train station:) I highly recommend this location! Спасибо большое!

    This is a budget backpackers hostel ( and we are no longer backpackers )but was really good. We had a twin room which was perfectly adequate and clean. The place is made by Aizada and her husband who's name I've forgotten ( humble apologies) and their children. All really helpful/kind/fun. Just a really good vibe

    Jalil and his family were wonderful! We really enjoyed our time with them. It is a small hostel and you get to share the kitchen with the family which makes way for good talks. It is possible to buy cheap dinner from jalils wife (who is an excellent chef)

    I am a repeat guest! I came in the summer during hiking season then returned for skiing season in the winter. Hostel Nice is such a chill hostel. Jen is the sweetest and so so helpful. She looked up things for me to do in Karakol in case I was bored. And she always helped me out - even coming with me to the store to rent snowshoes. Greatest and nicest staff!!! And best hostel in Karakol!!
