Flagman Hotels

We arrived at 4.30am straight from Bishkek airport after an early landing, and the woman at reception was there waiting for us. The 24/7 desk made it a good spot to catch up on sleep. A double or twin was £20; the bathroom was shared, but everything was clean. They take cards too, which was a big help. Very good hotel, and I’d stay again.

Madina was so kind throughout our stay. She asked what we’d like for breakfast, and even let us shower on the night we left, though we’d checked out that morning. We’d booked at a very good price, and she offered us a luxury room for just a little extra. It was totally worth it. The place was calm, quiet and comfortable. If you come to Bishkek, you won’t be disappointed. Thanks for your kindness, Madina. PS. Bring a little something for the two beautiful cats in the yard ;)

The rooms on the lower floor open right onto a small lobby, and we could hear the front desk from our room. We heard staff talking and the front door opening and closing, then they were loudly getting ready for work around 5 a.m. We happened to get one of those rooms and felt the staff could hear anything we said. Otherwise, it’s a clean, seemingly newly renovated hotel very close to downtown Bishkek. The price is cheap, the staff are helpful and speak a little English, and the WiFi was good.

We stayed three nights and had a big, clean, well-equipped room with a nice design. The staff were Russian, but friendly and helpful. There’s a quiet courtyard inside, and parking right in front. The hotel is on a little street, about 2 km on foot from Bischkek centre.
