Find Central Asia Tours

Kyrgyzstan’s Healing Inn Ashu Guesthouse. A comfortable time in the embrace of Mother Nature.

Hello everyone, this is Sugiura, the editor-in-chief of Ashu Travel, a travel agency specializing in Central Asia.

In this issue, we introduce the charm of one of our tour accommodations, Ashu Guest House. It is popular among travelers not only from Japan but also from Europe and the United States, and has received many highly rated reviews on overseas travel websites.

Surrounded by nature and with a homey atmosphere, it is perfect for those who want to get away from the hustle and bustle of the city and refresh themselves! As someone who likes to relax when traveling abroad, this is my favorite place to stay.

Quiet environment surrounded by nature

Ashu Guesthouse is located in the Chonchemin Valley, a quiet rural area in the northeastern part of Kyrgyzstan. The contrast between the green carpet and blue sky and the star-filled sky is beautiful, and if you listen carefully, you can hear the chirping of birds and the sound of the wind. The idyllic scenery is like something out of a picture book, and is sure to soothe your weary soul. It is not just a place to stay, but a wonderful place to spend time with the air, the wind, and the stars.

Please feel free to enjoy activities such as horseback riding and trekking, or relax in the large, open garden.

At-home hospitality with just the right amount of distance

The staff are all locals. They are warm and hospitable, but not too intrusive in a good way, making you feel at ease as if you were visiting a relative’s house even though you are overseas.

Please feel free to talk to me about recommended sightseeing spots and activities in Kyrgyzstan! Communication in simple English is OK.

Clean & comfortable, cute rooms.

Rooms in the guesthouse are clean, small, and rustic. Private rooms are equipped with toilets and showers, and you can spend your time at your leisure without worrying about other travelers.

My favorite point is the cute Kyrgyzstan-like interior. The natural furniture and colorful, cute patterns make me feel at home. Please spend your time relaxing in the stylish space while enjoying the beautiful scenery around you.

Healthy and tasty traditional Kyrgyz cuisine

At Ash Guesthouse, you can enjoy delicious Kyrgyz cuisine during your stay. My particular recommendation is that they serve traditional dishes with plenty of vegetables.

Kyrgyzstan has a rich food culture, and you can enjoy delicious food wherever you go, but since the food is basically meat, an Around40 like me can get sick to my stomach if I eat too much…

When you stay at Ashu Guest House, you will enjoy healthy meals full of vegetables. Refresh yourself with fresh local vegetables, homemade jams, and other healthy meals.
