Accommodation
We spend three nights in a four-star hotel in Bishkek, one night in a guesthouse in Chon Kemin, two nights in a family-run hotel in Karakol, one night in a homestay in Kochkor and two nights in a yurt camp at Son-Kol. Rooms at Chon-Kemin and Kochkor have shared bathrooms. The yurt camp at Son-Kol is based on four people sharing each yurt (single supplement does not apply at the yurt camp). The yurts are decorated in traditional style with many rugs. Shared toilets, sinks and shower are outside. There is electricity provided by generators. Drinking water is taken from a well. Temperatures can get below freezing at night at Son-Kol. During cold nights, the yurts are heated by wood or dung stoves. We recommend bringing a sleeping bag for additional warmth in the yurts.
