The Timur the great is located just near Resigtan and it was so easy to get to the many attraction. The host and her daughter were so polite and gentle. The room was clean and tidy. The wifi internet was fast enough. The breakfast was so satisfying. I had eggs and some somsa(bread dumpling), cake and fruits with tea. It was like buffet to me. I could not have it all. The laundry service was available and cheap.

Taehyun South Korea

Clean and cosy room. Great location, short walk from Registan. Nice hosts. Excellent breakfast.

Marek Germany

The feel was quite pleasant. The owner and his wife are extremely kind. The room was extremely comfortable and very clean. The location right near the Registan couldn’t be better. The breakfast was also delicious and filling.

Michael South Korea

The room is very big and clean Service here is very good Highly recommended

Jiawen China

Great location, immaculate, good breakfast, lovely and helpful family.

Frances United States of America

OUTSTANDING. Great location, wonderful people, delicious plentiful breakfast ( one of best meals I have had in Uzbekistan).Giant Room Timur and his wife were fabulous— almost as if I had family in Samarkand.

Lois United States of America

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
