One of Ulaanbaatar’s biggest and most reliable hotels, the Bayangol consists of two separate towers that are located a five-minute walk south of Sükhbaatar Sq (along a very busy road). It was built in 1964 to accommodate overseas tour groups and the structures are a bit dated, but Tower B is newly renovated, and the much better option.
