Bishkek hotels and guest houses
There are a variety of possible options in terms of accommodation in Bishkek: hotels, or guesthouses. However, there are less than a thousand places for visitors to stay in the hotels, which can cause problems when there is some large event happening in the city. Some are large with over 100 rooms others are much smaller. Each has their own advantage.
Of course, there is also our own hotel, The Silk Road Lodge, in the centre of town, (see our web page http://silkroadlodge.kg/en/). Although we are happy to offer it to clients, we are also willing to book other accommodation depending on the clients wishes and budget.
