"We loved the ambience and overall cleanliness of the hotel. The onsite restaurant offers excellent food and attentive service. Although the listing mentions a pool, we didn’t notice one during our stay. A sauna would be a nice addition to the gym. We truly hope the hotel can maintain its pristine standards — special kudos to the female staff member we saw meticulously cleaning the front exterior, brushing fallen leaves and even the red carpet.
Breakfast was enjoyable but could be improved with a wider selection of protein or meat dishes. One small surprise was the charge for additional bottled water; had we known, we would have simply purchased water from the minibar.
Overall, we would definitely stay here again, especially as the surrounding area is noticeably cleaner and quieter than the Registan area."

Amazing
GGuest UserI was very impressed with this hotel. The room was clean and spacious, the shower was huge, and I was especially impressed by the enormous bed (you could fit in it on a Thursday). The grounds are well-maintained, and the hallways are decorated with decorative elements. The breakfasts are good, with plenty of choice and everything is delicious. The hotel is located close to the airport, and the sights are 3-5 km away. A taxi takes a maximum of 10 minutes. They're not expensive, and they'll take you there for 10,000-15,000 soums. Overall, check into this hotel and you won't regret it.
GGuest UserThe hotel is relatively close to the station, about a 20-minute walk, and they offer a shuttle service. It's a rather upscale hotel. It's also not far from nearby attractions, which are quite enjoyable and won't get boring even after multiple visits.
EEvgeniy_PolyakovA great family hotel!
Clean room, staff friendly! Breakfasts are excellent. The recreation area, though not big, but quite comfortable.
The only one, the location of the hotel is not quite successful, but this minus overlaps the budget taxi.
MM254932****This is the most satisfying hotel in my trip. I thought it was close to Shahiddin, but I didn't expect it to be close to the main attractions! Opposite is Xia, then facing the hotel on the right hand side can walk to the Bazaar and Bibihanem and Hazrat, and along the road can also walk to other attractions. (When I took a taxi, I went around the hotel at the back, which made me think it was very remote, but when you figured out the route yourself, you found that the location is very good!)
The hotel is very exquisitely furnished, even the lights on the window sill and the hooks of the curtains have small surprises, and the boss's aesthetic is very good.
It was supposed to be 14:00 in the afternoon, but the boss asked me to check in early, the people were very good!
Their breakfast is also very rich, some local specialty pastries are also delicious, and the fruit is not bad. The waiters are very enthusiastic, that is, the hygiene may not be done every day, if you need to communicate with the other party if you stay continuously.
The most surprising thing is the terrace on the third floor of their home, the scenery is particularly beautiful!
GGuest UserAfter a few rough nights at a Soviet hotel, words can’t describe how happy I was to see this hotel. The male receptionist was very welcoming when I arrived as he let me check in a bit earlier after a train ride. The breakfast fulfilled my needs as they have fresh fruits, vegetables, yoghurt, eggs, coffee… no complaint. The guy working at the breakfast area was also very helpful. After I finished gym, I went up there. He immediately asked me if I needed water. It shows that he’s attentive. I felt happy staying there. The reason I booked it was the gym. As an active person, I need to work out on my travels. The gym is not fully equipped but it provides with the basics such as a treadmill, a bike and weights. Location wise, it’s not in the center of the tourist spot but it’s walking distance. It took me 15 min to get to Registan. Don’t worry though as Samarkand is pedestrian friendly.
GGuest UserAn excellent stay in a beautiful hotel with best ever service. I enjoyed really much. The room was equipped with high end technologies. The breakfast is fresh, great selection and gluten free options available upon request. The view is excellent. For information: the hotel is located in highly secured and very well developed closed area. It’s very clean modern and security controlled but not in the center of a city. You have to keep it in mind when you plan your trip. It requires 15 more minutes by taxi to get to the center, but in return you live in a very high standard & modern area with gated entrance.
GGuest UserThe location is almost too convenient; it's just a five-minute walk from the train station. All the attractions in Samarkand are on a straight line, and it takes about twenty minutes by taxi from the hotel to either end of that line. So you can stay overnight, visit all the attractions the next day, then take a taxi back to collect your luggage and head back to Tashkent or Bukhara in the evening. The restaurant and courtyard are particularly beautiful.
__WeChat220009****Hotel location is not bad, about 10 minutes walk from Reggiestan Square and Guernemir Tomb.
The hotel is old and the facilities are old, but it is not delayed.
The hotel did not take the initiative to provide drinking water and hair dryers. If you don't want to go to the front desk, you will give it, but I think it is better to take the initiative.
Hotel breakfast is OK, in addition to fried eggs and sausages, the other is basically cold meals.
Reminder! Don't go to the shoxjahon opposite the hotel to eat! This restaurant is not delicious, and there is a 15% service fee, but there is no service! It was outrageous that my bank card was deducted successfully after swiping the card payment, and the hotel said the transaction was cancelled and insisted on letting me pay again, so I paid 180 RMB for a bad meal!
KKCLDRIPone of the best hotel in samarkand, they might be old but oldies but goldie. you can feel the culture with this hotel, and the staff here are amazing from receptionist to everyone serving food at the buffet, love the ambiance and hospitality. and btw you can get 15percent discount with emirhan restaurant if you are staying at this hotel. will be back here for

PPanishaAlways my choice when I’m in Samarkand. The hotel owner was very kind to upgrade my room during my stay. Strategic location to many historical places, shops and restaurants. Overall the room was spacious, comfortable and clean.
