Back to nature. Visited in middle of June temperature around -9 to 18degrees Celsius weather. Stay in Tourist Camp Altan Nutag , room is wooden pine house come with heater and the mineral pool was fantastic. Water Flow from source and link to many piping to many Campsites. We can see many cows and yaks and many birds chipping in the early morning. We come with a guide else it is a great challenge as the terrain is difficult and will need a good 4 wheel off road vehicle to reach the destination.

When you go on a tour of Mongolia, you go with the understanding that you won't be taking showers daily. Well, this is one of the stops where you get to not only take a shower, but relax in the hot water pumped from the nearby hot spring. Tsenkher Hot Spring itself is too hot to bathe in, but the pumped water is wonderfully relaxing. I spent hours sitting in the pool and stargazing. The herds of yacks passing by in the field next to the hot spring are neat to watch. The gers are clean and spacious and locals, as always, very welcoming.

Two days drive from Ulaanbaataar (UB) is Tsenkher hot springs.
Very natural environmentl and in an area of outstanding natural beauty, although the springs are underdeveloped, it really is worth the trek to get to here.
Never in my wildest dreams did I ever think I would be having "Onsen" under a clear, starry night.
Very romantic.
I recommend one night, max two.
I combined it on an eight easy cross country safari from UB to Hatgal via Elaine Tasr, Tsenkher, Horog Volcano and National Park, Murine, Huvsgol and Hatgal. Then back to UB via Amersbaygalant.
Recommended.

There are a few Ger camps and some hotel buildings clustered around Tsenkher Hot Springs. This review is about KHANGAI RESORT who consists of a hotel building and yurts.
I don‘t know what our guide was thinking to book us into this ramshackle hotel. The rooms are beyond old. The floor was dirty, the wallpaper was peeling from the wall, on the ceiling you could see severe water damage, the rooms smelled awful. The bathroom had a toilet (no shower) and to flush it you had to dip your hand into the dirty water of the open flush tank. Everybody was banging doors, because the room doors hardly opened and closed. The walls were paper thin. From our room window (the window handle felt off after use) we got the view of the hotel bulk trash For the whole complex with hotel and yurts they had 4 shower cubicles. Khangai Resort has two little tiled hot pools and a "VIP pool "(the size of a bathtub ). The pools were occupied by fully clothed teenagers/young adults.
In the evening we got a bad tasting dinner. I did not eat the chicken but my daughter did and she was throwing up (& more) the whole night.
The lady greeting us at the hotel (hotel manager ? Janitor ?) was very nice.
Everything else was disgusting.

It's along rough ride to reach the site of the hot springs. The place is scenic with tree clad hills. The hot springs themselves are nothing much to look at, riddled with pipes that carry the hot water to the pools in the camps.However the overall location is quite picturesque.
We stayed at the Altan Nutag ger camp. As it had rained the gers were a bit damp. The gers are on stilts. As the grasses around are not tended to, it gives a rather rustic look to the camp, which is interesting. The common bathrooms are well kept.The hot water pools very clean. Open to the sky it is a soothing spending some time in them. We found the food reasonably good and enjoyed the traditional breakfast served.

This was the only stop during our 8 days stay at Mongolia where we could take a shower (except our first day at Ulaanbataar). The hot water is pumped into pool by pipelines and the water temperature is regulated for people to take showers. Else, the water straight out of the mountain is way too hot. There are 3 to 4 ger camps side by side. And the camps are surrounded by lovely hills and trees. A beautiful surrounding and hot water made a great pair! The gers were cleaner than other places. A very relaxing stay.

Our travel company had arranged for us to stay in a wood cabin while we were here. However, when we arrived, we were placed in the main building in a regular hotel room looking room. The room was spacious and air conditioned, but that’s where the positives end. Wallpaper was peeling off the walls. The bathroom did not have a shower, or bath, only a small sink with cold water. The plumbing attached to the shower wall did not work. When our guide called the manager for us to say we wanted a different room, a young man arrived, flirted with our guide, then turned on the water in the sink and rudely announced, “You have water.” When we said we wanted a different room that actually had a shower he said there were no other rooms, but we could use the public shower. Ok. We asked if he could have toilet paper sent to the room. He said yes, but when we came back from lunch there still wasn’t toilet paper. Our guide called and made another request for us. After 30 more minutes still no paper. We went outside and found a member of the cleaning staff and asked them for the paper and finally got it.
If you’re here for the hot springs sauna, good luck relaxing. The pools are small and crowded and noisy.

My least favourite place in Mongolia, crowded grubby pools and overcrowded facilities. Walks and views around are lovely. There was hair and dirt floating in the pools and I did not return back into the pool.

This cluster of hot springs are difficult to get to especially if there is any rain or snow. The locals are good at it but it is a journey. The resorts offer the same attraction. Hot springs and the surrounding country side which is good. Do not expect Japanese attention to detail and you will be fine.

Hot water? Hot water? Is what the local guy asked… We were already feeling like a red lobster in winter. It's great to see what is called luxury here. I personally loved the car-seats in concrete.

I know I'm much too late but I want to give you this Kazbah67.
Orkhon Valley is located North of the province of Ovorkhangai, in the central part of Mongolia, about 360 kilometres (224 miles) Southeast of Ulan Bator. Located at the foot of the Khangai range
360km is a lot in Mongolia, do you really know that you just want to do this? Good Luck!!
