Cheap hotels in Kabul

I'm just grateful I was able to experience Kabul generally. It's a privilege. I didn't expect much when traveling here. But, Afghania Guest House met and exceeeded all my needs. The location was ideal and central, I was one block away from a main street with food, stores and the like. I mostly walked in the city, but did take a short taxi ride to Babur Gardens. The facility was VERY secure, with a windowless main entrance where you have to buzz and wait for a staff member to open. The staff were very friendly and responded promptly, like when I asked for hot water to make my coffee. The room met my basic needs, nothing special but that's not a bad thing. You get what you pay for. It was very quiet, probably because there aren't many people visiting Kabul overall. I met one group of what I believe were temporary-stay foreign workers or business visitors. There's a Taliban checkpoint on the corner but they never stopped me in my 3 days there. It's also right across the street from the Iranian embassy.

Kabul Abdal Guest House offers clean, tastefully furnished rooms in a calm and secure neighborhood, providing an ideal retreat for both business and leisure travelers. Its convenient location allows quick access to local markets and main thoroughfares without compromising on tranquility. The staff is exceptionally welcoming, attentive, and professional—ensuring a warm and hassle-free stay.
