2-Star Hotels in Khiva

The location was fantastic. It was easy to walk to the North Gate, East Gate, and West Gate. I highly recommend it, as you can also enjoy exploring the city streets outside the old city walls. The room was clean, and I stayed on the first floor, which was incredibly convenient. The reception was right outside my room door, making it easy to communicate with the owner. It was also a huge help that the mineral water in the fridge in front of the reception was free. It seems to be a family-run guesthouse, and everyone was friendly and kind. I received such warm hospitality, like coming home, so I often returned to my room to relax during the hotter hours of the day. They greeted me with an ”Okaeri!” (Welcome home!) each time I went in and out, which was several times a day. On my checkout day, my train wasn't until the evening, but the owner told me I could use the terrace (which was actually indoors) until 5 PM and even gave me some water. The mother also offered me fruit, naan, and snacks. Finally, the owner, Aut-san, offered to drive me to the station, which was a huge help. Khiva is very far from Tokyo and a challenging journey, but if I ever come back, I would love to stay at this guesthouse again.

Traveling with friends in Khiva, this hotel is newly built and located on the street outside the west gate of the old city. The lobby is grand and elegant, and the second-floor terrace offers beautiful views directly facing the city walls. The room facilities are complete, the shower has great water pressure, and the breakfast is rich, with a particularly delicious croissant. Since our train was at 3 PM, the front desk helped us extend our check-out until 2 PM. Thank you!

The desk staff was very friendly. They had a water fountain that lets you refill your bottle. Overall this hotel is decent. It was within the old city so all tourist sites were within walking distance. Clean rooms. Decent breakfast.
