The Best Places to Get a Massage in Ulaanbaatar

The best places to get a massage in Ulaanbaatar with reasonable prices and great service.

Life in the Mongolian countryside is rough. The roads beat you up, horse riding activates muscles you never even knew you had, and living with the nomads tests your strength in ways you never knew it would.

So, why not treat yourself to a luxurious massage when you get back to Ulaanbaatar after days of traveling around the country. It’s my secret survival tip for recovering after any trip out to the countryside!

Plus, when you see the prices of massages in Ulaanbaatar and realize they’re a fraction of what you’ll pay in the US or Europe, you have no excuse but to go ahead and book that appointment.

Here are some of my personal favorite places to treat myself to a massage in Ulaanbaatar.

Ulemj Grease

When it comes to massages in Ulaanbaatar, this is my personal favorite place. It’s where I’ve been going for years thanks to their consistent service and always satisfying massages. Their masseuses are top-notch and can deliver hard or soft massages, depending on your personal preference. A 90-minute Swedish massage is about $70 USD.

Lotus Thai Massage

With 90 minute Thai Massages for 135,000 tugrik, which is roughly $38 USD, this place is a must-visit if you want to be boujee on a budget. They also offer foot reflexology, a Lotus signature massage, and a hot oil massage that is perfect for reinvigorating your skin after long days in Mongolia’s dry air.

Nana Spa

I’m not going to lie, their Deep Sleep Combo with a full body massage and foot massage for two hours is one of the greatest gifts you can give yourself after a few days of hard travel. Priced at 210,000 tugrik, or roughly $59 USD, it’s a bargain for what you get.
