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.

DUSTON Boutique XIX century rooms in Bukhara has 3-star accommodation with a terrace.
Guest review
Room was large and comfortable. Breakfast was good. The best part of the stay was the receptionists Beck, Jacob and all the others. They were extremely helpful and thoughtful, always asking how our stay was doing and if we needed anything. For sure this is a place I highly recommend, not only for the great location and comfy rooms, but mainly for the top tier service they provided.

Featuring a bar, Khiva Siyovush Hotel is situated in Khiva. Boasting room service, this property also provides guests with a restaurant.
Guest review
The hotel owner was incredibly kind and always available at the front desk, whether it was morning or night. Their thoughtful gestures made our trip truly enjoyable and fulfilling. They were happy to assist with requests such as arranging taxis to other areas, and the rooms were impeccably clean. The owner frequently checked in on us and was consistently friendly and helpful.
The complimentary breakfast was also excellent, and when we couldn’t have breakfast before our Aral Sea tour, they prepared a lunch box for us. Even when we caused a bit of inconvenience, they responded graciously. This is truly an outstanding hotel, and I highly recommend it.

Hotel B&S Samarkand Boutique has free bikes, seasonal outdoor swimming pool, a garden and bar in Samarkand. This 3-star hotel offers room service and luggage storage space.
Guest review
We had a wonderful stay at BS Billuri Sitora in Samarkand and would happily recommend it to anyone visiting the city.
The room was excellent — clean, comfortable, and well presented — and the bed was very comfortable, which made it easy to relax after a long day exploring Samarkand. The staff were lovely throughout our stay: very friendly, welcoming, and accommodating, always happy to help and make sure we had everything we needed.
Breakfast was also a real highlight. There was a very good spread with plenty of choice, including pastries, sweets, fresh fruits, eggs, sausage, egg bread, somsa, and other options. It was a great way to start the day.
Overall, BS Billuri Sitora offered excellent comfort, warm hospitality, and great service. We really enjoyed our stay and would definitely return.

Guest review
This hotel has exceeded our expectations both in terms of facilities and customer experience. You’ll get to stay in a luxurious location, arranged with great attention to detail and client comfort in mind. Spacious rooms, amazing bed and bed linen materials, tasty breakfast and great SPA available to relax. I can’t praise enough the hotel staff, they went above and beyond to meet all our needs and support us day and night and it’s not something you find easily, even in 5 star locations. Always patient and caring for the guests, they booked us taxis, sent us off to visit around with to-go tea/coffee or water, helped out with a late checkout when one of us was not feeling well. I’m terribly sorry for not remembering the name of the receptionist who helped us order pizza during our last night, special thanks are in order for him for his kindest attention and support: we had some trouble using Yandex to get a delivery and due to the language barrier no way of getting a direct line with the delivery person, so he was kind enough to offer to call the restaurant for us and replace our order (we left the order details with him on a piece of paper). Here’s where the truly amazing part begins, by the time all this unfolded the restaurant was already closed. So he called our room to break the news, but he wouldn’t have us go to sleep hungry so he told us not to worry that he knows another great pizza place and he will call them and make it so that we get to eat, he even delivered it to our room after it got to the hotel. It’s the type of care you rarely get and the one you want for a no-stress vacation. Our most heartfelt thanks for him and everyone taking care of us there! I wouldn’t stay anywhere else in Samarkand :)

Guest review
The staff was friendly and pro-active. Great team!
This was the second time we went to the hotel and the staff remembered how we liked things from the first time and made similar arrangements. Other examples they arranged without us having to ask or pay for included arranging breakfast options complying to our kids dietary requirements, arranging coffee and tea as per our likings with the wake-up service for our night flight, etc., etc. Also, not uncommon nowadays but still appreciated: the reception is 24/7 available on Whatsapp for all sorts of questions. Response within seconds.
Reception team spoke English very well.
All other basic things were in good order, such as: breakfast, cleanliness, location (near airport, train station, metro, shopping street), service. The room we stayed in was apparently very new or newly renovated and very tidy.
