It's not very close to the city center

Host is very friendly, speaks fluent English, it's a very relaxing place with the garden. You can use the washing machine for free.

Pillows etc were a bit flat and uncomfy, light didn’t work, little details like this make a place really stand out :) But really nothing else it’s a lovely guest house don’t let it put you off

The garden! Oh my god, I could have stayed here for a week just reading in the garden. Kitchen and dining area beautifully decorated

The host was very helpful for booking accomodation for the Ala Kul trek. Spacious, clean room and bathroom. Nice breakfast! We really liked the garden to chill in with the hammock under the fruit trees!

Evergreen Guesthouse in Karakol was honestly one of the best places I have stayed during my numerous travels. The host was incredibly kind and welcoming—just one of those people who makes you feel right at home straight away. The free breakfast was amazing, super fresh and filling, and way better than I expected. It was a treat to eat three different home-made jams with Russian pancakes. Plus, I was also able to do my laundry for free, which was such a nice surprise and super helpful after being on the road for a while. Just a really cozy, thoughtful place with great vibes all around. And if you like cats then you are for a treat. They are super friendly and wonderful around kids.

Location was a few km's from town, so taxis were required all the time.

This was a trip of two halves. A friend and I stayed before and after our Ala Kool Lake hike, storing our luggage here for the few days we were away. Upon arrival for part 1 of our stay the owner was super lovely. She showed us around, explained everything and offered to help with our onward travel and booked a taxi for us to commence our hike. The room was fantastic, bathrooms impeccably clean, and overall the experience was lovely. Notably, she was headed away for the weekend, so wasn't there for when we returned. Upon our return, it first it seemed like an inconvenience that we wanted to check-in. The lady who is there to clean and cook breakfast etc was actually napping on one our our beds when we arrived! She was awoken by a man who let us in, then set about readying our room. Once we got into our room we noticed the bathrooms hadn't been cleaned, they had run out of soap and toilet paper and bins were overflowing. This remained the case all day and most of the next! Heating was kept off (despite it being on when we had been there a few days earlier) which made it hard to dry clothes (in much need of a wash after the hike), and made it chilly at night. Interestingly the owner returned the next day, and when we arrived back after a day out we noticed bathrooms were once again cleaned and things were back to normal. I presume that the issue was the boss being away meant other staff had little care factor, which is such a shame as it reflects poorly overall on the experience. If this place was a few block closer to town I would rate it 10 stars; but if the woman working there was on her own, it would drop to 6.

It was a little bit out of town but it was easy to get a taxi.

The owner was very friendly and helpful and the accommodation had everything that we needed. They also stored our bags when we did the Ala Kul Hike.

It is a loong walk to and from the center, and the buses only compensate so much. No restaurants nearby. Pity that the 3rd toilet didn’t have a sink for washing hands which in effect reduces the number of shared bathrooms to 2 (so waiting times may occur).

Very friendly owners. Breakfast was tasty. Washing machine available. Room was clean, bed comfortable. Common room was comfortable, with fridge and microwave, and always tea/hot water. Internet worked fine.

A little bit further away from city center. We had to take our car to go out for dinner.

Nice home with 4 or 5 rooms and 2 shared bathrooms. Nicely decorated, comfortable. Nice gardens with a lot of trees full of fruit. We could pick whatever we liked. Breakfast was OK. Good English by some of the ladies there. Very clean, nice shared bathrooms. Perfect for a short stay in Karakol between camping adventures.

Very cozy hotel. Wonderful little garden. The 2 showers plus toilet are shared, but the furnishings are spotless and there are no complaints about the flush in the toilets (a common problem in Kyrgyzstan). The downside is the rather spartan breakfast menu, but within walking distance is the Lighthouse Cafe with an excellent selection of modern fusion cuisine. There is also a large supermarket across nearby park. Unfortunately the sauna was not available in July, if it is important to you -- check in advance. Laundry facilities are not listed on the website, but the landlady said they were available (I didn't use them).

The hostess was too nice she drove us to the start of the ala kul hike and picked us up at ak-suu. Breakfast was delicious, bathroom and room very clean.

The staff serving breakfast and the breakfast did not add to an otherwise pleasant stay. It is a long walk to the centre of Karakol so a taxi is bes for a meal, but this is a minor inconvenience

A nice guesthouse for a stay in Karakol. Our room was spacious and bright. We had no problem with the shared bathroom. Our host was friendly and helpful. A sunny courtyard adjoins the yard with fruit trees which adds a nice touch. The breakfast was okay.

Breakfast was nice and simple. Katya is a really friendly person and also speaks English which is nice. The guest house is cozy, warm, and has nice bathrooms. The common area is a great place to relax or play games.

Two showers are shared by around 8 people which can lead to queues. There’s a lot of construction on the roads around it, expect detours and frustration with Google maps.

The owners are lovely, the rooms are beautiful, the homemade jam for breakfast, and their peaceful garden.
