Eagle's Nest

Top choice in Western Mongolia


The best hotel in town has a cosy, hunting-lodge vibe and a quiet location, with 11 well-maintained twins all facing back on to the mountains. Rooms have bathtubs and include breakfast. Free airport pick-ups. The hotel, run by Altai Expeditions, is 1km south along Peace Avenue (in front of the big radio mast).
