Hotels in downtown Mount Elbrus (East Summit)

For a family trip to Elbrus village, Lisichkinhouse on Balkarskaya Street offers two options: split-level apartments for a large family and ground-floor studios that can be booked separately or together. Each studio has a kitchenette, while cots, children’s tableware, books and games are provided for younger guests.

Both properties offer cabins with kitchens for a stay in Elbrus. Ozon Village has chalets in a pine forest, around seven minutes from the Cheget and Azau ski slopes. At Glamping Dom, a nature trail starts just outside the gate, the river is 100 metres away, and the ski lifts are a 10–15-minute drive.

For a trip to Elbrus, Usengi Hotel and Hostel on Balkarskaya Street offers private rooms and dorm beds. Note the location of the second option: Polyana Narzanov is a small, four-room hotel in the village of Baydayevo, with a café serving local cuisine and free parking.

Moon Resort Hotel is in central Terskol, 3 km from Azau Glade, with breakfast served and ski storage available. Eco Shale Cheget suits guests who want slopes within walking distance and evenings in a fireplace lounge. For a self-catering stay, Apartments on Elbrusskaya Street 3 has a kitchen and washing machine, with shops and equipment rentals nearby.

These three hotels are handy bases for the Elbrus slopes: Shaherezada is 100 m from a cable car station, while Alpina and Vertikal are about 150 m away. Alpina offers budget rooms with shared bathroom facilities, while Vertikal has a Comfort room category with a terrace. Shaherezada suits guests keen to try regional cuisine at the hotel restaurant after a day in the mountains.
