Having gained independence in 1991 following the breakup of the Soviet Union, Uzbekistan is a young country. But the roots of this vast land are ancient.
For centuries, this area of land was a major crossroads along the Silk Road – an age-old trading route that stretched all the way from China to the Mediterranean. Samarkand, one of three major cities dotted along the road, contains so many architectural feats from this period that it has been classed entirely as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. See for yourself at the Registan, a wide plaza bordered by three mosaic-covered madrassas (religious schools) with bright turquoise domes. To the west, Bukhara offers similarly impressive landmarks, including the ruins of a 5th-century royal compound known as the Ark, while the walled city of Khiva further north is the most remote but best-preserved of the Silk Road cities. Here you’ll find stunning mosques, mausoleums and palaces towering over a labyrinth of streets. But there’s more to Uzbekistan than ancient history. Tashkent, the urban capital in the eastern region, is refreshingly cosmopolitan, while in the far north you can visit the Aral Sea – formerly one of the world’s largest lakes now on the verge of disappearing completely.
Hotels and guesthouses are aplenty in the capital, as well as in the Silk Road cities. Accommodation is quite limited elsewhere.

We had an absolutely memorable stay at Berchmulla Resort.
The 2-bedroom chalet was truly luxurious, spacious, and perfect for our family.
A special thanks to Mr. Anvar, the Resort Manager, who was extremely supportive and attentive throughout our stay.
The snowfall experience was magical, and our kids enjoyed every moment of it.
The food was extraordinary, with great taste and variety.
As vegetarians, we were very happy with the excellent veg options available.
The restaurant manager was also very helpful and ensured we were well taken care of.
Every detail made us feel warmly welcomed and truly special.
The service, comfort, and hospitality exceeded our expectations.
Highly recommend Berchmulla Resort for families seeking a wholesome winter holiday experience. ❄️✨

Sarhad Hotel offers accommodation in Bukhara. Featuring a terrace, the 3-star hotel has air-conditioned rooms with free WiFi, each with a private bathroom.
Guest review
The hotel is located in an excellent location. We wanted to book a double bedroom, but at the time of the booking it was not available, so we went for a family room. The bedroom was exceptional: beautiful, curated in every detail, modern, new. The hotel itself is amazing, I think it has been recently opened o renovated in a old building. I had the feeling of being in a beautiful museum. The staff was super kind and polite and prepared for us a box with some food since we were leaving very early in the morning. We didn’t ask for this and it was a pleasant surprise. It’s the best hotel were I stated during my trip in Uzbekistan.

Meros Hotel features a garden, shared lounge, a terrace and restaurant in Bukhara.
Guest review
We had an amazing stay at Meros. The room was really beautiful and comfortable, good bed, great bathroom. Enough space for the luggage, little fridge, plugs and reading lights next to the bed, all these things that are just great to have. The breakfasts were super varied with so many tasty home made things, salty and sweet. Lovely to start the day eating on the patio. But the most exceptional was the warm welcome we got from the staff. Such nice people who really care and want to make your stay as nice as possible. They explained us some of the local specialties included in the breakfast buffet, gave us tips on what to do and where to eat, offered an umbrella when it was raining and so on. We enjoyed our stay so much and really recommend this hotel without any doubt. Go before the secret is out there!

We received wonderful hospitality during our stay! The welcoming staff went out of their way to ensure we felt great. The rooms are spacious and tastefully designed, and the breakfast is good. The location is convenient, as it's not far from the airport, the railway station, or Registan—all of which can be reached in 10-15 minutes by taxi.
