Blue Spot Resort

Blue Spot Resort

8/10 Good
"I loved our stay, beautiful cabins with amazing view, and friendly front desk staff. The reason I chose the place is because I thought they served buffet daily as advertised, but they don’t. Taking one star away for that. The server did serve us some extra stuff when we asked which was nice. But please make it daily as you advertised it. Otherwise plenty to do around from riding horse and camel, and photo ops with eagle at Tsonjin. Saw horse riding circus which was awesome. Did some hiking up to the mine start and the view was unbelievable."

"Very well located stay, in the middle of the nature and relatively close to the main attractions in Terelj. Although the room was nice, the cleaning could be improved, in a lot of manners. In a country like Mongolia, where the tourism is rapidly increasing, attention to detail will also be important, and communication with the client will make a lot of difference."
