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.

Guest review
Location was superb... just a couple of minutes to Arc of Bukhara and the other places of interest. All are walking distance. Malika the receptionist was excellent - ever ready to make sure our stay was perfect. She arranged for the transport services and was very attentive to our needs throughout the stay. The rooms were clean and spacious. Love the ambience and deco of the hotel. Best of all, the hotel owner even took the extra effort to do a cooking demo of plov rice for our dinner at the courtyard just outside the rooms... all in all i would highly recommend this hotel for its location, comfort, service, warmth of the staff and above all the great hospitality experience.

Silk Road Empire features a garden, shared lounge, a terrace and restaurant in Samarkand.
Guest review
A magnificent boutique hotel. The establishment is superbly decorated with local handicrafts and traditional costumes. The hotel is brand new and benefits from a very convenient location. Our room was spacious, elegantly furnished and impeccably clean. The beds were very comfortable, the towels were new and fluffy, and the bathroom was large and well-equipped. The breakfast was excellent, with a wide choice of dishes, and the ladies who took care of it were particularly kind and helpful. The reception staff as well as the hotel manager were extremely friendly, polite and always ready to help. They also spoke English very well. Every evening, guests are invited to taste a glass of wine, which can be savored on the outdoor terrace. The hotel even offered us a free taxi transfer to the airport! A huge thank you for this wonderful stay!

We had a wonderful stay at Rudakiy Hotel. The place was spotless, very well-maintained, and clearly cared for with attention to detail. We stayed for two nights and found it to be extremely comfortable and relaxing throughout.
The host was exceptionally kind, welcoming, and always ready to help with anything we needed, which made our stay even more enjoyable. Communication was smooth and friendly from start to finish.
The location was also fantastic—convenient and well-situated, making it easy to get around and explore the area.
