Four minutes on foot from FAST Islamabad — that's how close New Palace Guest House sits to the campus, on Street 55 in G-9/4. For anyone with early lectures, an admission test or a meeting on that campus, it's hard to beat being that near the gate. Rates run from PKR 8,158 to PKR 10,345 per day. Two features set the stay apart: an on-site cook, so home-style meals are handled without stepping out, and air conditioning to see guests through the Islamabad heat. The lane is well served too, with Jamia Masjid Al-Furqan Ahle Hadith less than a hundred metres away, an F.G. School and a post office close by, and the well-known Purana Khyber Shinwari Restaurant a short walk off for a proper Peshawari meal when you fancy one. Beyond FAST, Muslim Youth University and VU Islamabad are both within a couple of kilometres. G-9/4 is a busy, central pocket of the city, and this guest house makes the most of it — cooked meals, cool rooms and a campus practically next door.
