Riaz Guesthouse: Former hippie mecca
  • Tip Rating:
  • Satisfaction:
  • Pakistan - Madyan, Swat Valley
  • Madyan, Swat Valley
  • by AndreSTGT
  • Send Photo to a Friend
  • This guesthouse is hidden in the upper part of the village of Madyan.
    It has a beautiful terrace which offers views over the snow-capped Himalayan peaks.
    The atmosphere is extremely relaxed and the rooms are OK (you get a warm blanket, which is very useful).
    150 Rupees for a double!

    Unique Qualities: Great views, complimentary tea. The owner can tell you very interesting stories about the time when this place was a hippie enclave.

    Airport Hotel: Courtesy of PIA
  • Tip Rating:
  • Everyone flying with PIA (Please Inform Allah)is likely to have a day layover in Karachi, and chances are you will be put into this hotel. Isn't that bathroom pic just lovely?
    But don't worry, the brownish spots are not what you would guess, just flaking color, still not a very nice sight.
    Now don't get me wrong the room is actually quite alright and PIA is a very generous airline, you get 6 meals on the way from Frankfurt to Bangkok and 3 meals in Karachi, so don't be put off. I'd fly with them anytime.
