You’ll be at the heart of the action at three-star city hotel Asia Mountains 2. Take a walk outside and you’ll have cafés, restaurants and shops on your doorstep. Bishkek’s historic Ala-Too Square is also only a five-minute drive away. Here, you’ll get to see the towering statue of a legendary poet who wrote one of the world’s longest poems, the Epic of Manas – a cultural staple in Kyrgyzstan.

Local art and textiles decorate the walls of this characterful hotel, with pops of greenery and a comfy lounge making it feel more like a home than a hotel. The same goes for its 20 rooms, which all come with a private bathroom, flat-screen TV, air conditioning and Wi-Fi. The service at Asia Mountains 2 is very attentive and the staff are helpful and welcoming.

Breakfast is included in your stay, so you can wake up each morning and dig into a freshly prepared selection of meats, cheeses and fruit. The hotel restaurant also serves lunch and dinner, so you can cosy up by the fireplace and try authentic Asian dishes, or take a stroll out to explore the local restaurants nearby.
