Karagat (kyrgyz for "black currant") hotel in Karakol (kyrgyz for "black lake") is probably the biggest hotel in the city. The hotel is comfortable, rooms have everything needed. The breakfast is buffet. There's a bar on the first floor as well. The reception girls are very friendly and always ready to help. I had some issues with the local sim card, so I asked them for assistance. They helped me to configure it. The hotel's location is very good: it is on one of the major city streets. There are a few minutes walk to the nearest Globus supermarket and TSUM/Asia shopping mall. The taxi ride from the bus station takes around 8-10 minutes. The walking distance to the airport is 20 minutes. I enjoyed my stay in this hotel, I'll stay there again if I am in Karakol again!

Very spacious comfortable room. Reception staff were incredibly helpful when we had to change our travel plans.

Receptionist was awesome, she knew how to speak English, and sadly was on almost on 24hours shift. She was my host from check in all the way to check out, moreover she was the one delivered my room service dinner, laundry collection/delivery plus saw once was dealing with some angry russian customer over room wifi.
Hand down to her, sadly didn't get her name but probably is the only female receptionist who can communicate in English.
Plus massage was great (honestly best one I had so far). I wanted more second day but didn't have time.
And room was clean and very spacious.
It took very long for the hot water to start in shower.

Location is good and the room was bright and spacious. The guy on reception was very nice and very helpful.
Bathroom dirty, particularly around shower gel/shampoo dispensers. Quite a few dead flies in bathroom and room. Wi-Fi only accessible in lobby!
