We stayed for three days to attend the Kolfest festival. We arrived in the afternoon and were immediately checked into a three‑bedroom room. It’s small and basic, but it has a lovely porch‑terrace on the second floor with views of part of the mountain and Issyk‑Kul. The hotel grounds were more impressive than the room itself—everything was green and beautiful, with benches, pavilions, hammocks, and sculptures. It’s clear the owners care deeply about the place. There are many cats on the property (we love them). The road and beach are about a 10‑15 minute walk away. There’s a dining hall where you can order three meals a day, and we ate at the roadside café, mostly at Mandarin, so I can’t comment on the food. There’s also a shared kitchen. Many people, as I understand, keep coming back and have formed their own groups. Everything is very courteous, and after 22:00 the area is almost completely quiet. The walls are very thin, so you can hear neighbors coughing, and the mattresses are uncomfortable.
