New West Hotel

By the Top3Hotels editorial team. Based on Booking.com guest scores and reviews, location data and reference prices. We did not stay at this hotel. Updated 2026-10-24.

Yes, it is worth booking if you want a well-rated, low-cost base in Ulaanbaatar and do not mind taking taxis or public transport to the main sights. Skip it if you want to walk to Sükhbaatar Square, which is more than 50 minutes away on foot.

Who it suits and who should skip it

This is our Budget pick in Ulaanbaatar. It works best for travellers who care more about price, breakfast and getting in and out of the city than about being in the centre. Guests say it is close to the bus station, supermarkets and cafes, with easy airport access.

Early starters get a useful extra: breakfast to go is listed, and guests mention packed boxes for early departures. Family rooms and free parking are also listed, which helps if you are driving or travelling with children.

Skip it if your plan is to walk everywhere. All three main sights we measured are more than 30 minutes away on foot.

Location and getting around

The hotel is in Bayangol, at Ard Ayush Street, Peace Avenue, 5th Khoroo 10th Khoroolol Building 91. Its location score from guests is 8.4 out of 10.

Straight-line walking estimates: Gandantegchinlen Monastery is 2.7 km, about 34 minutes. Sükhbaatar Square and Choijin Lama Temple are both 4.2 km, about 53 minutes each. These are far for a walk, so plan on public transport or a taxi for sightseeing.

These times are estimates from map distances, not tested routes. Check the walk on a map app before you rely on it, especially in cold weather.

What guests say

The score is 8.9 out of 10 from 299 reviews. In the sample of 14 eligible hotels, that placed it joint third by review score.

Two things come up most in the praise. First, the location for practical needs: the bus station, shops, cafes and the airport run. Second, breakfast. Guests call it tasty with good variety. The listed options are continental, full English/Irish, vegetarian and breakfast to go.

The main complaint is the bathroom. Guests say it is clean with hot showers, but some drains are slow or give off odours. If that matters to you, ask the hotel about it when you book or read the latest reviews.

Price and what you get compared with our other picks

In our check for a 2-night stay in November 2026 (10 to 12 Nov, 2 adults), the reference price was €64.91 per night, about €130 for both nights. That was 42% below the sample median of €112.60. These are reference prices, not live quotes, so check today's price for your dates.

For that money you get a 3-star hotel with free Wi-Fi, a restaurant and air conditioning listed by the property.

Our Best Value pick, IBIS Styles Ulaanbaatar Polaris, is 4 stars, scores 8.7 and came in at €117.89 per night. Our Luxury pick, Khubilai Hotel Ulaanbaatar, is 5 stars, scores 9.2 and was €132.44 per night. New West costs roughly half of either and still scores higher than the IBIS.

Why it made our top 3

We compared 14 eligible hotels in Ulaanbaatar. After reserving the upscale choice, New West had the lowest eligible reference price, and its 8.9 score from almost 300 reviews is strong for that price. Few budget options pair a price this low with ratings this high.
