Ultimate Adventure B&B

Bishkek


This good-value guesthouse has French owners and clean, simple bedrooms. Good, hot showers (shared) are set around a vine-terraced garden and a lavish breakfast (included) is served on the summer terrace surveyed by Lenin in an ak kalpak. From the Russian church on Jibek Jolu walk north up Togolok Moldo to Kurenkeeva, then 200m east. There's a tiny sign.
