Hotels in downtown Chemal

Chizhik at 12 Dvornikova Street has just three rooms and a shared kitchen — handy if you prefer to cook for yourself during your stay in Chemal. The rooms have air conditioning and underfloor heating, while the garden and terrace offer space to relax outdoors.

These stays suit walks to Chemal Dam, though not all are in the village centre: 7 Pyatnits is 3 km away, but just a seven-minute walk from the dam. Chemalka sits on the riverbank beside a pine forest, while Chalet Flora and Domiki Altaya offer detached chalets or cabins with their own cooking facilities and terraces. At 7 Pyatnits, the kitchen is shared.

These stays combine time near the Katun with walks around Chemal. Veter Chemala offers cabins and rooms for four with kitchen areas, while Usadba Slavnaya has cedar houses for 2–8 guests, 350 metres from the beach. AyOk suits those who want a shop and public transport stop nearby: both are within walking distance, as is the Shamal Museum.

These hotels focus on riverside relaxation, so allow for travel time if you plan to explore central Chemal. Iguana is about a 12-minute drive from the tourist centre, while Areda sits on the Kuba River, eight kilometres from the village. Beyond rooms, Areda-1 Mountain hotel offers a superior chalet, while Bertka offers a superior bungalow or superior cottage.

These properties are in Anos, Elekmonar and Uznezya rather than central Chemal—for those who prefer a stay in nature to a central location. At Zelenye Gorki, you can stay in a room and cook in the guest kitchen. Vdokh offers detached houses with private terraces and an on-site café serving breakfast, lunch and dinner.
