Why We Love This Hotel

History: The area in which the Terelj is based is actually close to where Mongolia's famous Gengis Khan was born.

Service: The service offered at the Terelj is second to none, with fantastic touches that give guests a true sense of pampering, from the resort’s complimentary shoe shine to the VIP packing and unpacking service.
