Star Club
Reportedly offering similar accommodation to the Marco Polo Hotel, the Star Club was temporarily closed at the time of research. It’s right on the river, slightly upstream from the Pamir Club.
Faizabad hotels and hostels
Marco Polo Hotel
Also known as Number One Guesthouse, this is a basic hotel with hard beds. The shared bathrooms are pretty basic, with squat toilets, but there’s a pleasant garden that overlooks the river.
Hotel Ishan Awliyan
One step up from a chaikhana, this 1st-floor hotel has a handful of private rooms with two beds and a beaten-up sofa apiece – a little dingy but perfectly serviceable.
Pamirclub
If there’s a hotel with a better location in Afghanistan, we’d like to know about it. On a promontory surrounded on three sides by the rushing Kokcha River, this government hotel has a hard spot to beat.
