Where to Stay in Karakol

Karakol Has Accommodation for All Budgets and Travel Styles

From its time as a remote military outpost at the edge of the Russian Empire, Karakol has been an accessible, welcome stopover for travelers and adventurers of all stripes. Relative to its size, Karakol features a good range of accommodations, from the simplest of hostels and yurt camps, to boutique guesthouses and B&Bs, to large and well-appointed hotels.

If you’re on a budget, the yurt camps and hostels are a great way to meet other travelers, gain valuable insight into local customs, and engage with the culture in a unique way. Guest houses also offer that personal level of interaction, with owners often serving as casual concierges, ready to cook you a traditional meal or give you their recommendations for what to do, what to see, and where to eat. If you want a bit of luxury and privacy, hotels offer all modern amenities at a higher but still reasonable price.
