How budget is budget? You can probably pay as little as $0.50 (1.5 Com) for a room somewhere in Bishkek, but you will be sharing the place with several people and maybe animals?

On the other end of the spectrum, there's the Hyatt, which will cost close to $180 a night I think.

The hotel right across from the Hyatt is nice and maybe $60 US (about 2100 Com). I will try to find the name and some contact info. Again, how budget is budget? Do you want it cheaper than that?

thanks for your reply
budget = budget I hear prices of 10-20 usd for a double. Doesn't matter if the walls need a bit of paint, i won't see it as i sleep with eyes closed ;-)

after some debate we decided to take mountainbikes and no motorcycle. I had too many beers and really need a workout ;-) So if you see 2 heavily packed pushbikers, it's us!

cheers.

I have seen several pushbikers lately, in pairs. Brave!

Avoid LP CA guides advice for the Int Bus School. It's horrid & gross w/ mean old babuskas always demanding money.

Nomad's Home is best, search for it on lonely planet thorntree. 300 somani for a clean shared room. 500 ea for a private double. Cold brews & mineral water available at the home.

I'm currently staying at the Sakura Guesthouse in Bishkek, not far from the Hyatt... Dorms for 200som. Excellent beds!

Both me and a Japanse biker should be heading to Kazakstan / Russia and Mongolia soon... Feel free to drop around for a beer....

Gozell, check your PMs. :cool4:
