Reviews of Hostel Nice

This place was 10/10 , spotless, comfortable , good space, beautiful kitchen, good and clean showers and toilets. You can do laundry for more than fare price, and you can store your heavy luggage before heading to hikes ! Wanderful

I just think they should change the name to “hostel very nice” because it was. I liked everything

Everything. Friendly. Clean spacious kitchen

All good

The lady who looks after the place is very friendly and super helpful. I struggled to book a train (maybe my foreign card?) and the owner booked it for me after I gave her the money. She also speaks great English. Very comfortable bed. Generally pleasant place to stay, calm vibe about the place. Great if you want to get sorted for the long hikes in the area.

Not much! Perhaps a small thing to consider improving is to have a little shelf in each bed?

Staff is very welcoming and very helpful, recommended good restaurants to eat in and helped us plan the Ala-Kul trek and explained how to get to the places we needed. Also let us keep our stuff in the storage room while we were away in the trek Very nice place overall, clean and cozy

Very nice place, good location and beautiful view. Extremely pleasant and helpful hosts. Truly recommend!

- really deserves the high rating (i've been surprised at other kazh-kyrg highly rated places that really aren't so great) - owners live in house next door but readily present, and helpful with info - great dorm beds with light, curtain, power - enough bathrooms and toilets - great kitchen with 2 cooktops, fridges, and plenty of space - clean and uncluttered; excellent large lockers - one of the few hostels with has info board with some local info (could be expanded a lot for town features) - outdoor spaces: porch, yard, undercover area - location: 15 mins easy walk to central Karakol, through parks and streets - handy to other places such as Duet cafe and a bar nearby there

- suggestion: a few more seats for outdoors space

Spotlessly clean, beautiful views, seems to attract really lovely, friendly people, and Janyl the host was so welcoming and helpful! I particularly loved sitting on the hammock under the fruit trees in the garden watching red squirrels!

The hostel was recommended by a solo traveler we met in bishkek and I am glad I took the recommendation! The amenities - wifi, toilets, kitchen, showers, the patio, the garden were excellent! We stayed in the yurt which is for 2 people, It was our 1st yurt experience and we loved it 101%. It’ll get cold at night so ask for extra blankets just incase. There are fruit trees in the garden and we asked Janyl(the owner) if we could pick some and she let us. We got apples and pears for our hike. We wanted to do the Ala-Kul Trek and Janyl helped us booked everything which is very convenient - the transportation to the first bridge and the yurt we stayed in Sirota! She would help you with everything you need, so don’t hesitate to ask. If you’re into hostels then this is for you!

Nothing

the best place we stayed in Kyrgyzstan! the managers are very kind and helpful to your every need and the environment feels like you are in a friend's garden. Definitely recommended!!

Everything was perfect.

Very nice, clean and big room. The owners Janyl and her husband are very helpful, kind and welcoming.

Relaxed and homely hostel with friendly and helpful hosts. Great base for the Ala-Kul trek and the perfect place to chillout. Clean and comfortable facilities.

The owner/staff are very helpful. Facilities are clean. Best hostel I've stayed at in Central Asia.

Probably my favorite hostel I’ve stayed in so far in Central Asia. Loved the outdoor patio and garden. Met really great people here, and the host was always available to answer questions and help with arranging activities in the area.

Very kind and helpful owner and well thought out hostel. Good location.

Nothing.

Very nice and helpful owner. Clean and spacious dorm room. Nice kitchen. Good location for activities. Good self service laundry. Two thumbs up!

Nothing.

I had the best sleep I’ve ever had at a hostel, the bed was comfortable and the hostel was very peaceful. The host was very warm and welcoming and also let me put my laundry on a long wash, for a small fee, which meant it was cleaned properly unlike other hostels in the area who will only allow a short cycle. This makes a big difference for dirty hiking clothes!

I had no faults

We stayed in the five-bed private room for 1 week and loved our time there! The room was clean, the shower was hot and strong, the shared kitchen had two stoves and plenty of pots and pans for cooking. There is also some lovely mountain view out from our room on the second floor! We particularly loved having our morning coffee out on the patio overlooking the lovely garden. Janyl spoke really good English and was very warm and easy to speak with. She lives just next door so it is easy if you have any questions or need help. All in all we loved our time at Nice Hostel and hope to return one day!

The hosts spoke English well and assisted us when we wanted to book bus tickets online. The room was clean, the bed was comfortable, and the facilities were complete, including a washing machine, hair dryer, and kitchen amenities.
