Buxoro Street 84, 703011 Samarkand, Uzbekistan –

Lock in a great price for Timur The Great – rated 9.6 by recent guests!

to get started.

Can you imagine someone with a vision to combine a luxury hotel experience with an atmosphere of staying in a local family home? Timur and his family largely succeeded to do just that. They live at the adjacent house that you can always reach by crossing the inner garden. They were always on call, readily accommodating every crazy request of ours. Location is literally minutes away from Registan on foot.

Maxim, United States of America

Location was excellent - very central and easy to access all the historical sites by walking. Really delicious breakfast and easily one of the best I've had in Uzbekistan! Timur and his family are very kind and I was treated like family instead of just a guest - Timur even let me stay until my train was leaving at night even though I already checked out! Definitely one of the best guesthouses in Samarkand if not Uzbekistan!

John, Canada

The owner couple are very friendly and helpful. The breakfast was the best during our 3weeks stay in Uzbekistan. The location is great.

Geunyoung, South Korea

Lovely people who could not have been more friendly and helpful. Great location as you’re only a couple of minutes walk from the Registan.

Wendy, Uzbekistan

Fantastic staff and service. One of the most friendly places we have ever stayed. They let us stay late and leave our bags for a midnight train. Breakfast was amazing too.

Katherine, United States of America

Location: The location is prime (10/10) and quite authentic. Perfectly situated between Registan the other sites. The owner and his family: A genuine man who is so friendly and goes out of his way to help you and make you feel at home. Rooms/facilities: clean, spacious, and quiet. Much more modern than the pictures show.

Bennett, United States of America

Excellent host, super funny and made us smile a lot. The best location, quiet but really close to the Registan which is the top site in all Uzbekistan. Everything was lovely.

Cosmo, United Kingdom

Excellent stay . The place seems in an interior and quite shady Lane but thats a blessing because it's close to all the monuments and is in fact a great location. We got upgraded to a room in the new suite and it was swanky!!! Nothing like the pictures. It was way better . The Owner Timur was amazing and charming and the breakfast was huge and quite tasty. Very helpful warm people.

Rishika, India

Location is excellent. All major attractions at walking distance. The treatment of the property owner was extremely kind. We arrived 4 hours before the check-in time, but the owner gave us a great welcome, offered delicious breakfast and arranged the room in an hour.
