Rich Hotel

We stayed at Hotel Rich for a night on our arrival in the magnificent Kyrgyzstan and another night on our return from adventures around the country. The hotel arranged a taxi service for us at 700 KG Som that was waiting for us at the airport with our name emblazoned across a plaque. On arrival at the hotel, a kind man carried our luggage up to our room. The beds were comfortable, the rooms clean and the decor was very pleasant. The receptionists were helpful and the breakfast had a variety of food from which to choose from. The hotel was busy with various foreigners from all across the world, including Japanese doctors, older European adventurers with Dragoman Travel and some central Asians. It felt like a good base from which to share knowledge and travel experiences. The rooms were fully air conditioned with a wonderful shower room. There was also a gym room, a nice terrace and a swimming pool that my son enjoyed swimming in, although it was a little dirty and was in need of a clean. The location was quite central and within walking distance of the famous Osh Bazaar. A little further is the Ala Too Square but a taxi ride ordered over the phone from the square cost us only 50 KG Som. The hotel cost us around £46 at the exchange rate of the time which was 82 KG Som to the pound. We paid 3800 KG Som, which felt very reasonable for the high standard of the hotel. We would definitely stay here again!
